Download or read book Manaus written by Leo A. Despres and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1991-07-03 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manaus, an urban-industrial center in the Amazon, serves in this book as a microcosmic case of dependent capitalist development in Latin America. With the creation of a Free Trade Zone and a strong program of fiscal incentives in 1967, the Brazilian government initiated a large-scale project designed to establish an industrial pole in Manaus. This book is an anthropological study of the impact of this type of development on the economic, social, and cultural life of working class families. This study underscores the work relationships between different economic sectors, the economy of households, the organization of domestic groups and, ultimately, the social engagement of working class families in the life of their neighborhoods, the city, and the larger Brazilian society. Despres examines the theoretical value of modernization, dependency, and modes of production approaches for understanding the social formation of working class populations. In discussing capitalist development in Brazil, the author grapples with the problems of urbanization, industrialization, and economic development in Latin America generally.

Book excerpt: Este livro de fotografias é uma homenagem especial a Manaus, cidade controversa por natureza e que recebeu uma das suas melhores definições na frase do saudoso colunista social do jornal A Crítica, Gilberto (Gil) Barbosa, que a chamava de a “Manô” dos mil contrastes. Por meio desta expressão, que alimentou o imaginário de várias gerações, Gil conseguiu identificar fielmente o sentimento da Manaus em constante transformação, mutante, e cuja pluralidade sempre foi a sua característica mais forte. Uma metrópole incrustada na selva, que possui verdadeiras ilhas de riqueza cercadas de miséria. E esta miscelânea pode ser constatada com mais clareza nas imagens contidas neste trabalho, registradas durante o mês de setembro de 2012, de um ângulo que é privilégio de poucas pessoas: a vista de cima. A partir desta perspectiva aérea foi possível se captar Manaus na essência mais próxima da sua realidade contemporânea, neste momento em que ela está completando 343 anos de sua fundação – daí o título desta obra. O livro “343 Manaus” também possui tradução na língua inglesa, a fim de facilitar aos turistas internacionais que nos visitam um melhor conhecimento sobre a cidade. Por isso, além da justa homenagem à capital amazonense, a obra “343 Manaus”, terceira produção literária da editora Mídia Ponto Comm, é um guia visual turístico que se propõe a descrever e divulgar a sétima cidade mais populosa do Brasil por meio de um excelente acervo fotográfico, distribuído em mais de vinte aspectos da urbe manauara. Aproveite o sobrevoo e descubra Manaus!
