This book works to unpack the link between urban, violence, and security with three main arguments. \u003cbr\u003eThe first is that urban violence is under-theorized because long-term theoretical problems with both of its elements (‘urban’ and ‘violence’).\u003cbr\u003eThe second is to answer these questions: (1) how can violence be conceptualized in a way that opens to an understanding of the specificity of urban violence? (2) What is the urban in urban violence? And (3) How can ‘urban’ and ‘violence’ be articulated in a way that makes urban violence a category with both analytical and strategic power? \u003cbr\u003eThe third, and central, argument of this book is that, through a genealogy that articulates political economic and vital materialism, urban violence can ultimately be framed as a precise category shaped by three interlocking trajectories: the process of (capitalist) urbanization, the spatio-political project of the urban, and the concrete urban atmospheres in and through which the process and the project materialize, often violently so, in the urban.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing Plc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54254496776536,"sku":"9781793637321","price":44.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781793637321_1dfbb13b-9f2d-4847-baa2-c253d8dfa3a5.jpg?v=1764498623","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/urban-violence","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
