Wow, New New York

By Helen Lopes

The choice to study the memory of the residents of the city of New York is the subject of this book. The period in question is set in the second half of the 20th century and focuses on decisive moments in Maranh o's political history. This moment was permeated by contradictions characterised, on the one hand, by the idea of development and progress in the state with the construction of the Boa Esperan a Hydroelectric Plant and, on the other, by the destruction/reconstruction of the city. In the wake of these events, the focus is on the rhetorical construction of the so-called New Maranh o project, which engendered a kind of euphoria to be thought of as a historical experience, at the same time as a form of representation of the development discourse.
