Description

Explore the complex relationship between urban environments and social safety in The Urban Fabric of Crime and Fear by Springer. This academic work examines how the physical structure of a city influences both the occurrence of crime and the perception of fear among its residents. Through a detailed look at social interactions within urban spaces, the book investigates whether the built environment affects the decision to commit offenses. It also addresses vital questions regarding victimization-related inequality and how crime and fear contribute to segregation within cities in developing countries. For students, researchers, and urban planners, this text provides a deep look into the challenges of designing cities that balance safety with sustainability. By studying the nature of the city and the social dynamics that shape it, readers gain a better understanding of how urban planning can address modern societal challenges.
