Routledge Urban Interstices Routledge - Aesthetics and Politics of Space

Urban Interstices: The Aesthetics and the Politics of the In-between offers a deep look into how urban transformations shape our world. Published by Routledge, this volume brings together international scholars to examine the relationship between in-between spaces and the processes of partitioning, zoning, and enclave-making. By looking at how these interstitial locales function, the text explores how they connect to larger networks, flows, and boundaries. The book provides a global perspective through diverse case studies. Readers can explore urban landscapes and territoriality in locations including the US, Quebec, the UK, Italy, Gaza, Iraq, India, and South-east Asia. This work is designed for those interested in spatial justice and the way territories are formed. It provides a necessary look at how the spaces between defined zones impact the way we understand urban environments and the politics of space.
