Why, then, do so many cities today seem scarred by divisions separating the powerful and privileged from the victims of deprivation and injustice? In this book, based on the internationally renowned Oxford Amnesty Lectures, eight leading urban thinkers argue about why divisions arise in cities and about what could and should be done to bring those divisions to an end. The many contemporary issues that the book addresses include the impact of globalization and migration on the urban environment, the consequences of the 'war on terror' for those living in cities, the new development paradigm being adopted by international institutions in the developing world, the need for a genuine urban renaissance in Britain and elsewhere, and the suffering of the homeless.Oxford Amnesty lectures.Oxford scholarship online.Cities and townsSociology, UrbanHuman rightsCities and towns.Sociology, Urban.Human rights.307.76Scholar Richard508288MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910777030403321Divided cities774756UNINA
