As the notion of unsettled appears to define contemporary urban experience, this multidisciplinary book investigates the conflicts and possibilities of settling and unsettling through open and speculative analysis. The analytical prism of unsettled renders urban space an indeterminate ground unfolding through routines, temporalities and contestations in tension between settling and unsettling. Such contrasting experiences are contingent on how urban societies confront, undergo and overcome turbulence and difficulties in time and space. A collection of contributions drawing on theoretical reflections and empirical accounts-from Argentina, Austria, Germany, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, and Vietnam-give insights into past and present plural uncertainties, antagonisms and ambivalences in a variety of urban forms, relations and expressions. The chapters reveal conditions under which unsettled might tie down or unleash transformative, liberatory and emancipatory potentials. This book is for students, professionals, and researchers interested in the uncertainties, foundations, disturbances, inconsistencies, residuals and blind fields which constitute the urban both as lived space and as social, cultural and political ideal"-- Provided by publisher.Unsettled Urban SpaceCity planningPublic spacesSocial aspectsPublic spacesPolitical aspectsCity planning.Public spacesSocial aspects.Public spacesPolitical aspects.307.1216Wall Ed, e1460997Viderman TihomirKnierbein Sabine1977-Kränzle ElinaFrank SybilleRoskamm NikolaiNjHacINjHaclBOOK9910774823103321Unsettled Urban Space3662160UNINA
