The Spatiality and Temporality of Urban Violence: Histories, Rhythms and Ruptures Albrecht Mara
This edited volume asks how the city, with its spatial and temporal configuration and its rhythms, produces and shapes violence, both in terms of the built environment, and through particular 'urban' social relations. The analytical categories of space and time must be thought as inextricably linked with each other . The book builds on the insight that violence itself is a spatiotemporal practice with generative capacities, which produces and transforms urban space and time in the long turn, also through the impact of memory.
The book unites case studies on different world regions and historical periods, and thus challenges assumed binaries of cities the global North and South, the past and Expanding this fundamental conceptual idea offers fresh perspectives on urban violence.
