Produktbeschreibung
With a focus on urbanism from the mid-twentieth to the early twenty-first century, this volume explores how questions of housing continue to raise a series of vexing issues surrounding rights, identity, and governance in the modern city.
Drawing on cutting edge perspectives from urban studies, this book grants renewed, interdisciplinary energy to the housing question. It explores how housing raises a series of vexing issues surrounding rights, identity, and justice in the modern city. Through finely detailed studies that illuminate national and regional particularities - ranging from analyses of urban planning in the Soviet Union, the post-Katrina reconstruction of New Orleans, to squatting in contemporary Lima - the volume underscores how housing questions matter in a wide range of contexts.
