City of Quarters
Urban Villages in the Contemporary City
In terms of the city, when one thinks of quarters, class and ethnicity, as well as sex and other behaviours spring to mind. These essays examine the role of urban quarters in terms of structural, political, economic, social, cultural and spatial change.
City of Quarters brings together some of the most prominent authors writing about urban villages to provide the first systematic and multi-disciplinary overview of this high profile contemporary phenomenon. As such, it is set to become the standard reference work - a comprehensive and integrated primer with coverage of all the topics necessary for a full understanding of the role of urban villages and quarters in the contemporary city.
