From Haussmann?s attempts to use urban planning to rid 19th-century Paris of workers revolution to the contemporary metropolis, including urban disaster-zones such as downtown Detroit, Merrifield reveals how the urban experience has been profoundly shaped by class antagonism and been the battle-ground for conspiracies, revolts and social eruptions. Going beyond the work of earlier urban theorists such as Manuel Castells, Merrifield identifies the new urban question that has emerged and demands urgent attention, as the city becomes a site of active plunder by capital and the setting for new forms of urban struggle, from Occupy to the Indignados. 606 $aSociology, Urban 606 $aCities and towns 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSociology, Urban. 615 0$aCities and towns. 676 $a307.760905 700 $aMerrifield$b Andy$0892556 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464662803321 996 $aThe new urban question$92019959 997 $aUNINA
