contents Urban marginality, racial inequalities and welfare expansion in Brazil and South Africa Sergio Rocha Arte Brazil Segregation South Africa Welfare Policies Racial Inequalities The expansion of social rights in Brazil and South Africa over the last decades until the 2010s have encouraged quite optimistic understandings about both countries. In relative contrast with them, in this article, I seek to deal with the question of how territories that incarnate the historical injustices and racial inequalities of Brazil and South Africa have been transformed in recent times. In order to do so, I rely on literature review and qualitative research methods. I put the emphasis on recent dynamics of social change in two historically marginalized urban spaces, namely: Rio de Janeiro’s favelas and Johannesburg’s townships. In so doing, I seek to discuss the interconnectedness between welfare policies and patterns of urban marginality. 2021 artículo científico 2250-5555 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=553581241014 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5535 RevIISE - Revista de Ciencias Sociales y Humanas application/pdf Universidad Nacional de San Juan RevIISE - Revista de Ciencias Sociales y Humanas (Argentina) Num.18 Vol.18
