Toward an ethnographic study of racial quotas for "black" students in the University of the State of Rio de Janeiro -- Dreams and hard places : main settings and socioeconomic profile of quota students -- Race between the class rows : urban encounters and dis-encounters in the changing university space -- From race or color to race and color? : ethnography beyond official discourses -- Narrowing political gaps : black awareness and university education as ways to be "central."

"In this work, I discuss the introduction of racial quotas in favor of 'black' students in some public universities of the State of Rio de Janeiro. The implementation of racial policies has raised strong reaction in a country like Brazil, where ideals of racial and cultural mixture are crucial components of national identity. Focusing on my ethnographic study of a public university and its users, I analyze the practical and symbolic potential that affirmative action has to redress historically-produced and territorialized inequalities in the urban space. Due to the variety of users that racial and other social quotas have produced, the ethnography allows for a broader discussion of race and class relations in Rio de Janeiro and in Brazil"--
