Poor People's Politics: Peronist Survival Networks and the Legacy of Evita

"At the level of most political science literature on urban poverty and clientelism, this work is genuinely pathbreaking. Combining the best of 'thick description' ethnography with a sense of more global processes at work in a society, Auyero uses the most up-to-date analytical frameworks to interrogate an object of study that has rarely-if ever-been so addressed. This is a book to be reckoned with over the next few years and beyond."-Daniel James, author ofDoÑa MarÍa's Story: Life History, Memory, and Political IdentityJavier Auyero is the author of 'Poor People's Politics: Peronist Survival Networks and the Legacy of Evita', published 2001 under ISBN 9780822326274 and ISBN 0822326272.
