Exploring the Production of Urban Space
Policy Press (Verlag)
978-1-4473-0574-3 (ISBN)
This important book uses new international comparative research to engage critically with Lefebvre’s spatial theories and challenge recent thinking about the nature of urban space. Meticulous research in three iconic post-industrial cities in the UK and North America, explains how urban public spaces, including differential space are socially produced, providing an accessible guide for those who care about public space, city planning and urban policy.
