Routledge Can Neighbourhoods Save the City? - Social Innovation

Explore the role of local communities in urban regeneration with Can Neighbourhoods Save the City? from Routledge. This book examines how neighborhoods act as sites for both social and economic exclusion and as centers for civil society initiatives. It looks at bottom-up strategies used for redevelopment and the creation of socially innovative organizations. Through the lens of SINGOCOM (Social INnovation GOvernance and COMmunity building), the text investigates how these efforts work to meet the basic human needs of deprived populations. It analyzes ways to increase political capabilities and improve social interaction between local communities, the wider urban society, and the political world. This work is an essential resource for understanding how community-led development can influence the future of cities and urban social structures.
