This volume explores the series of public protests - manifestações - that took place in a number of Brazilian cities in June and July 2013, when thousands of people took to the streets to demand improvements in urban infrastructures.

* Critically examines the role these protests played in politics, the political and their relationships to urban space and culture

* Analyses their connections to the emergence of a 'New Right' in Brazil, which saw the election of Bolsonaro

* Includes first-hand accounts and brings together contributions from both activists and scholars within a number of different fields (geography, history, philosophy, art, political economy)

* The first interdisciplinary English language anthology to address Brazil's 2013 protests and the broader political and cultural questions they raise

* A major contribution to Brazilian and Latin American Studies in Europe and the USA, as well as interdisciplinary studies of social movements, urban culture and politics

The essays presented here highlight key insights from top scholars in the field, and offer context for understanding politics and the future of Brazilian democracy.'
