""Claiming the Right to the City presents a well-crafted review of progressive urban policies in Brazil since the 1980s, their achievements, and shortcomings. The case study of Niteroi is in itself a major contribution to the field.""-- ""Fernando Luiz Lara, Weitzman School of Design, University of Pennsylvania"" ""Abigail Friendly is a leading figure in the study of Brazil, and, more broadly, for the urban affairs field. With Claiming the Right to the City, she continues to chart an important course in scholarly debates with this engaging, sophisticated, and cogent analysis of the right to the city in one of the world's most dynamic countries, offering lessons from the Global South to advance equality for all people.""-- ""Thomas J. Vicino, Andrew Young School of Policy Studies, Georgia State University""
