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. 517 $aUnsettled Urban Space 606 $aCity planning 606 $aPublic spaces$xSocial aspects 606 $aPublic spaces$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aCity planning. 615 0$aPublic spaces$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aPublic spaces$xPolitical aspects. 676 $a307.1216 701 $aWall$b Ed, e$01460997 702 $aViderman$b Tihomir 702 $aKnierbein$b Sabine$f1977- 702 $aKra?nzle$b Elina 702 $aFrank$b Sybille 702 $aRoskamm$b Nikolai 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910774823103321 996 $aUnsettled Urban Space$93662160 997 $aUNINA
