Santa Teresa and Lapa are two districts in Rio de Janeiro where the community spirit has built up an interesting understanding of urbanism. Once ignored as marginalised places with crime, drugs and prostitution Rio is now very interested in these urban spaces. The governement wants to sell this community spirit to toursists – a fine way to exploit.

Those who understand German can listen to a podcast by Geo. Here is the link to an extra audio called Sambacity.
Abseits von Copacabana und Zuckerhut entdecken die Einwohner von Rio de Janiero ihre alten Viertel wieder. Und den traditionellen Samba, der dort überlebt hat.
