This book deepens our understanding of urban struggles in a variety of socio-spatial contexts and at different scales. It reveals the commonalities and differences between Brazil and other countries in the Global North. The reader will find reflective stories ranging from land occupations and creative urban protests to mutual aid during the Covid-19 pandemic in Brazil, and from tenants' organising to self-managed spaces in Sweden. While taking a broad political economy, decolonial, and feminist approach, this volume provides a novel, critical account of the social needs and aspirations of those involved in peripheral urban struggles.
