The park was the result of a hard-fought, decade-long protest movement in a low-income Maghrebi and African immigrant district starved for infrastructure, but the Mayor's vision of urban sustainability was met with jeers. Drawing extensively from immersive, firsthand ethnographic research with northeast Paris residents, as well as an analysis of green architecture and urban design, Andrew Newman argues that environmental politics must be separated from the construct of urban sustainability, which has been appropriated by forces of redevelopment and gentrification in Paris and beyond. France's turbulent political environment also provides Newman with powerful new insights into the ways in which multiethnic coalitions can emerge--even amid overt racism and Islamophobia--in the struggle for more just cities and more inclusive societies. A tale of multidimensional political efforts, Landscape of Discontent cuts through the rhetoric of green cities to reveal the promise that environmentalism holds for urban communities anywhere"-- Publisher. 410 0$aQuadrant book. 606 $aUrban ecology (Sociology)$zFrance$zParis 606 $aUrban parks$xSocial aspects$zFrance$zParis 606 $aSustainable urban development$zFrance$zParis 606 $aCity planning$xEnvironmental aspects$zFrance$zParis 606 $aEnvironmentalism$xPolitical aspects$zFrance$zParis 606 $aImmigrants$zFrance$zParis$xSocial conditions 606 $aImmigrants$xPolitical activity$zFrance$zParis 607 $aParis (France)$xEnvironmental conditions 607 $aParis (France)$xEthnic relations 607 $aParis (France)$xPolitics and government 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aUrban ecology (Sociology) 615 0$aUrban parks$xSocial aspects 615 0$aSustainable urban development 615 0$aCity planning$xEnvironmental aspects 615 0$aEnvironmentalism$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aImmigrants$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aImmigrants$xPolitical activity 676 $a307.760944/361 700 $aNewman$b Andrew$f1978-$01049723 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464026703321 996 $aLandscape of discontent$92478977 997 $aUNINA
