Recenzii

“With Urban Encounters, André Cicalo has delivered amuch needed work in the pressing issue of affirmative action in Brazil, aboutwhich there is a dearth in the English-language literature. His very readablebook will be a welcome addition to courses on race relations, urbananthropology, Brazilian studies, and Latin American studies.” (VâniaPenha-Lopes, Luso-Brazilian Review, Vol. 52 (2), December, 2015)
"Cicalo's work is highly original and is the most thoughtful treatment of university quotas in Brazil yet written. This perspective is of considerable importance because of the light it sheds on the process as it is unfolding on the ground and in real time. His ideas for policy implications are interesting and suggestive." - John Burdick, professor of Anthropology, Syracuse University
