By focusing especially on the southern European cities of Palermo and Lisbon, the book also aims to expand upon recent studies on urban geopolitics, enriching them from the perspective of ordinary, as opposed to global, cities. Readers will find enlightening analysis of the ways in which urban fear is (re)produced, including by misinformative discourses on security and fear and the political construction of otherness as a means of exclusion. The spatialization of fear, e.g., through fortification, privatization, and fragmentation, is explored, and the ways in which urban planning is informed by and has in turn been shaping urban fear are investigated. A concluding chapter considers divergent potential futures and makes a call for action. The book will appeal to all with an interest in whether, and to what extent, the production of ?fearscapes?, the contemporary landscapes of fear, constitutes an emergent urban political economy. 410 0$aUNIPA Springer Series,$x2366-7516 606 $aHuman geography 606 $aRegional planning 606 $aCity planning 606 $aUrban economics 606 $aCrime?Sociological aspects 606 $aHuman Geography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X26000 606 $aLandscape/Regional and Urban Planning$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15000 606 $aUrban Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W49010 606 $aCrime and Society$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B3000 615 0$aHuman geography. 615 0$aRegional planning. 615 0$aCity planning. 615 0$aUrban economics. 615 0$aCrime?Sociological aspects. 615 14$aHuman Geography. 615 24$aLandscape/Regional and Urban Planning. 615 24$aUrban Economics. 615 24$aCrime and Society. 676 $a307.1216 700 $aTulumello$b Simone$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01064883 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910252728203321 996 $aFear, Space and Urban Planning$92541351 997 $aUNINA
