Javier Auyero

Poor People's Politics

Peronist Survival Networks and the Legacy of Evita

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

"At the level of most political science literature on urban poverty and clientelism, this work is genuinely pathbreaking. Combining the best of 'thick description' ethnography with a sense of more global processes at work in a society, Auyero uses the most up-to-date analytical frameworks to interrogate an object of study that has rarely--if ever--been so addressed. This is a book to be reckoned with over the next few years and beyond."--Daniel James, author of "Dona Maria's Story: Life History, Memory, and Political Identity "
