Description

Explore the complex relationship between violence and the built environment with Urbicide: The Politics of Urban Destruction. Published by Routledge as part of the Advances in International Relations and Global Politics series, this work examines how the deliberate destruction of cities serves as a specific form of violence. The concept of urbicide gained prominence during the Bosnian war to describe the targeted ruin of urban settings. Author Martin Coward provides a deep theoretical framework for understanding the urban condition. By applying Martin Heidegger's theories on space and Jean-Luc Nancy's concepts of community, the text investigates why buildings are specifically targeted. The book argues that these structures are attacked because they create the plural public spaces necessary for society to function. This is an essential read for students and professionals interested in international relations, urban development, and political philosophy.
