Abstract: “The global health crisis caused in 2020 by the COVID-19 virus has given rise to new protests in the social sphere and intensified those that marked earlier years. This study aims to contribute empirical material that might help understanding of this phenomenon social unrest and its link with (especially urban) inequalities in the Atlantic region. In particular, it sets out to answer two questions: i) to what extent is inequality related with increasing social protests in situations of health crisis, and ii) what form do these phenomena (pandemic, inequalities, and protests) take in urban centres?”
Keywords: inequalities, protests, cities, covid-19
