Sommario/riassunto |
|
A City of Equals combines a multi-disciplinary literature review and, distinctively, more than 180 interviews in 10 cities in 6 countries: Wolff and de Shalit provide an account of a city of equals based on the idea that it should give each of its city-zens a secure sense of place or belonging. |
