Urban Geography: A Critical Introduction
English
By (author): Andrew E. G. Jonas Eugene McCann Mary Thomas
- Reveals both the diversity of ordinary urban geographies and the networks, flows and relations which increasingly connect cities and urban spaces at the global scale
- Uses the city as a lens for proposing and developing critical concepts which show how wider social processes, relations, and power structures are changing
- Considers the experiences, lives, practices, struggles, and words of ordinary urban residents and marginalized social groups rather than exclusively those of urban elites
- Shows readers how to develop critical perspectives on dominant neoliberal representations of the city and explore the great diversity of urban worlds
