Sound-Politics in São Paulo

ISBN: 9780190660109 出版年：2019 页码：265 Cardoso, Leonardo Oxford University Press

In São Paulo during Brazil's post-dictatorship period, noise control became a recurrent controversy, and the ecological agenda against noise as a harmful pollutant has significantly reconfigured the presence of environmental sounds in the city. Sound-Politics in São Paulo argues that the framing of specific sounds as unavoidable, unnecessary, or as harmful "noise" has been an effective strategy to organize spaces and administer group behavior in this rapidly expanding city.
