Description

Explore the complex relationship between electricity networks and urban life with Energy, Power and Protest on the Urban Grid: Geographies of the Electric City. Published by Routledge, this edited collection provides a global overview of how cities transform their electricity infrastructures. It examines the social struggles that arise during these changes and how power grids affect social control, segregation, and integration.
