“This collection of short, punchy essays by Brazilian scholar-activists crafts a uniquely Latin American methodology in order to decolonize the way we have traditionally approached Rio de Janeiro and Brazil more generally. Radically innovative, <i>Rio as Method</i> questions the usual weight given to citation practices and scholarly pedigrees so prevalent in the Global North, which frequently reproduce the very exclusions they examine. This project breaks new ground by privileging the voices of Brazilians who are thinking and living through their nation’s race, class, and gender inequalities.”

- Carmen Alvaro Jarrin, author of, The Biopolitics of Beauty: Cosmetic Citizenship and Affective Capital in Brazil

“This wonderful and heterogeneous volume is awesome in its reach. It will be foundational for new approaches to thinking about the dynamics of authoritarianism and racial capitalism in the context of Rio de Janeiro’s deep historical legacies that hearken back to enslavement and the colonial plantation system. <i>Rio as Method</i> makes important contributions to interdisciplinary formations ranging from urban studies, Brazilian studies, and Latin American political economy studies to discussions of racial capitalism in the Americas, Global South studies, and beyond.”

- Macarena Gómez-Barris, author of, The Extractive Zone: Social Ecologies and Decolonial Perspectives

Rio as Method provides a new set of lenses for apprehending and transforming the world at critical junctures. Challenging trends that position Global South scholars as research informants or objects, this Rio de Janeiro-based network of scholars, activists, attorneys, and political leaders center their Brazilian megacity as a globally relevant source for transformational world-making insights. Presenting this volume as a handbook and manifesto for energizing public engagement and direct action, more than forty contributors reconceive method as a politics of knowledge production that animates new ways of being, seeing, and doing politics. They draw on lessons from the city’s intersecting religious, feminist, queer, Black, Indigenous, and urbanist movements to examine issues ranging from state violence, urban marginalization, and moral panic to anticorruption efforts, paramilitary policing, sex work, and mutual aid. Rethinking theoretical and collaborative research methods, Rio as Method models theories of decolonial analysis and concepts of collective resistance that can be taken up by scholar-activists anywhere.
