Abstract

This paper contributes to critical and Southern urban studies by discussing how the notion of hybridity is useful to understand contemporary modes of politics rooted in equality pursuits and crafted by peripheral subjects. It analyses the birth, discourses and tactics of three grassroots groups in Rocinha, an immense peripheral settlement in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, to show how modern insurgent claims – based on material urban rights – are intertwined with other grammars of justice, such as the politics of intersectional difference, critical pedagogies, solidarity and care. These cases suggest that contemporary insurgency builds on rights-based citizenship claims to create unique pathways that somehow articulate the universality and relationality of justice. I suggest that hybrid insurgent citizenship operates like a braid in which different strategies are uniquely and interdependently linked over time. Whilst in Rocinha the central thread is insurgency, the same logics could apply to other context-situated political traditions.

混合叛乱公民身份：里约热内卢实现城市平等的相互交织的途径

本文通过讨论混合概念如何有助于理解植根于平等追求并由外围主体精心打造的当代政治模式，为批判性和南方城市研究做出了贡献。它分析了巴西巴西里约热内卢一个巨大的外围城市——罗辛哈的三个基层组织的诞生、话语和策略，以展示现代叛乱分子的主张——基于物质城市权利——是如何与其他正义语法交织在一起的，比如交叉差异的政治、批判教学法、团结和关怀。这些案例表明，当代叛乱建立在以权利为基础的公民权利要求之上，创造了独特的途径，以某种方式阐明了正义的普遍性和关联性。我认为，混合的反叛公民就像一条辫子，不同的策略随着时间的推移而独特而相互依赖地联系在一起。虽然在辛尼亚的中心线索是叛乱，但同样的逻辑也适用于其他情境下的政治传统。

期刊介绍： Environment and Urbanization aims to provide an effective means for the exchange of research findings, ideas and information in the fields of human settlements and environment among researchers, activists and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in low- and middle-income nations and between these and researchers, international agency staff, students and teachers in high-income nations. Most of the papers it publishes are written by authors from Africa, Asia and Latin America. Papers may be submitted in French, Spanish or Portuguese, as well as English - and if accepted for publication, the journal arranges for their translation into English. The journal is also unusual in the proportion of its papers that are written by practitioners.
