Urban Revolution and Citizens' Rights

It addresses fundamental issues of urban planning, of the city as a public space and citizenship as a status that assigns equal duties and rights to all people who live together in a territory. It also critically examines how the dominant urbanization patterns deny the democratic tica egalitarian and supportive vocation of the desired city. Finally, it exposes 'the right to the city' as an analytical and critical concept of urbanization, and as an integrative concept of strategies and actions of resistance to the dominant urbanization patterns. 372 p.: B/w, 23x15 cm., Paperback
