Moving beyond essentialist and reductive analyses of identity, urban politics, planning, and development in cities in the Middle East, and instead offers critical engagement with both historical and contemporary urban processes in the region. Approaching "Cities" as multi-dimensional sites, products of political processes, knowledge production and exchange, and local and global visions as well as spatial artefacts. Importantly, in the different case studies and theoretical approaches, there is no attempt to idealise urban politics, planning, and everyday life in the Middle East -- which (as with many other cities elsewhere) are also situations of contestation and violence -- but rather to highlight how cities in the region, and especially those which are understudied, revolve around issues of housing, infrastructure, participation and identity, amongst other concerns. Analysing a variety of cities in the Middle East, the book is a significant contribution to Middle East Studies. It is an essential resource for students and academics interested in Geography, Regional and Urban Studies of the Middle East. 410 0$aRoutledge handbooks. 606 $aCities and towns$zMiddle East 606 $aUrbanization$zMiddle East 606 $aUrban policy$zMiddle East 606 $aCity planning$zMiddle East 606 $aSociology, Urban$zMiddle East 607 $aMiddle East$xSocial conditions$y21st century 607 $aMiddle East$xEconomic conditions$y21st century 615 0$aCities and towns 615 0$aUrbanization 615 0$aUrban policy 615 0$aCity planning 615 0$aSociology, Urban 676 $a307.760956 702 $aYacobi$b Haim 702 $aNasasra$b Mansour 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793621703321 996 $aRoutledge handbook on Middle East cities$93812971 997 $aUNINA
