Favelas as Sites of Resistance: Exploring the Political and Cultural Dynamics of Informal Settlements in Brazil
This project will examine the role of favelas (informal settlements) as spaces of resistance in Brazil’s social, political, and cultural landscape. Focusing on a specific time period, such as the late 20th century to the present day, the research will be about the ways in which favela residents have organized and mobilized against systemic inequalities and oppressive structures. Through a combination of ethnographic studies, historical analyses, and sociopolitical theories, the project aims to elucidate the complex dynamics of power, identity, and community resilience within Brazil’s favelas.
