São incontestes as relevantes contribuições que a presente obra traz, sobretudo para o campo da saúde coletiva, tanto do ponto de vista metodológico quanto do ponto de vista teórico-analítico, tornando-se leitura indispensável a quem utiliza as políticas públicas como objeto de estudo.

Tackling a rarely studied dynamic approach to affect, Ramos-Zayas offers a thorough—and sometimes paradoxical—new articulation of race, space, and neoliberalism in US urban communities. After looking at the historical, political, and economic contexts in which an intensified connection between affect and race has emerged in Newark, New Je...
