520    This book looks at slums and social exclusion in the four 
       major megacities of India and Brazil, and analyzes the 
       interrelationships between urban policies and housing and 
       environmental issues. In Delhi, Mumbai, Rio de Janeiro and
       São Paulo, the challenges they pose have spurred public 
       actors into action through housing, rehabilitation and 
       conservation programs, not to mention civil society and 
       the inhabitants themselves. On the other hand, one must 
       wonder whether these challenges were partly created by the
       deficiencies of these very public actors and civil society,
       be it their lack of intervention (as advocates of 
       government intervention would argue), or the flaws and 
       inadequacies of their actions (as supporters of the free 
       market would suggest). Are policies alleviating or 
       aggravating social exclusion? This book explores these 
       questions and more.
