Conclusion: spatial justice, exclusion and urban policies in Brazil and India / Frédéric Landy and Marie-Caroline Saglio-Yatzimirsky. 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. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Urban policy|zBrazil|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2010117526|zRio de Janeiro.|0https://id.loc.gov /authorities/names/n79060405-781 650 0 Urban policy|zBrazil|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2010117526|zSão Paulo.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n79077404-781 650 0 Urban policy|zIndia|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2010117528|zDelhi.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n79077529-781 650 0 Urban policy|zIndia|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2010117528|zMumbai.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n2012073713-781 650 0 Slums|zBrazil|zRio de Janeiro.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2010113331 650 0 Slums|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85123553 |zBrazil|zSão Paulo.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names /n79077404-781 650 0 Slums|zIndia|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2010113333|zDelhi.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names /n79077529-781 650 0 Slums|zIndia|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2010113333|zMumbai.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n2012073713-781 650 7 Urban policy.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1162489 650 7 Slums.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1121194 651 7 Brazil|zRio de Janeiro.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1205337 651 7 Brazil|zSão Paulo.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1205761 651 7 India|zDelhi.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1205766 651 7 India|zMumbai.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1802300 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Saglio-Yatzimirsky, Marie-Caroline.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n2002109182 700 1 Landy, Frédéric,|d1963-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n95037488 710 2 World Scientific (Firm)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/no2001005546 776 08 |iPrint version:|tMegacity slums.|dLondon : Imperial College Press ; Singapore : Distributed by World Scientific Pub.
