Sumario: | This collection examines the profound transformations that have characterised cities of the advanced capitalist societies in the final decades of the 20th century. It analyses ways in which relationships of contest, conflict and cooperation are realised in and through the social and spatial forms of contemporary urban life.

These processes, they contend, are creating new patterns of social division and new forms of regulation and control. |
