Contending that everyday sociability and social networks are
central elements to an understanding of urban poverty,
Opportunities and Deprivation in the Urban South draws on detailed
research conducted in SAGBPo Paulo in an examination of the social
networks of individuals who identify as poor. The book uses a
multi-methods approach not only to test the importance of networks,
but also to disentangle the effects of networks and segregation and
to specify the relational and spatial mechanisms associated with
the production of poverty. It thus explores the different types of
network that exist amongst the metropolitan poor, the conditions
that shape and influence them, their consequences for the
production of poverty and the mechanisms through which networks
influence daily living conditions. A rigorous examination of
poverty in a contemporary megacity, Opportunities and Deprivation
in the Urban South will appeal to sociologists, political
scientists and geographers with interests in urban studies, poverty
and segregation and social networks.
