Omschrijving

Cities can be seen as geographical imaginaries: places have meanings attributed so that they are perceived, represented and interpreted in a particular way.

’Taking a new and important tack, the contributors to Creating the Unequal City offer a detailed and timely portrait of a city while in fact telling us something much deeper about the nature of lived urban experience. Eschewing global city frameworks and the industrial production of poverty studies we learn how its diverse actors and citizens navigate and unwittingly produce patterns of exclusion and support.’ Rowland Atkinson, University of Sheffield, UK
