Ranging through the 1964-1985 military dictatorship, the transition to neoliberalism in the 1990s, the legislative coup that ousted the Workers Party from federal office in 2016, and the Bolsonaro government and its handling of the Covid-19 pandemic, the book demonstrates the socioeconomic shifts that have occurred in Brazil in recent decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will appeal to scholars of social and political theory with interests in political economy, dispossession, contemporary commons, and Latin America.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daniel Bin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032645962\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032645964\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/29\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 186\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.42d","brand":"Daniel Bin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48175746515199,"sku":"9781032645964","price":56.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d54fbd8e-cf06-47cd-b602-ca040efd399e.jpg?v=1771335644","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/capitalist-dispossessions-daniel-bin-9781032645964","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
