This book brings together knowledge from feminist urban scholars, feminist scholars of social reproduction, and other urban theorists to propose an approach that recognizes social reproduction as both a foundational element of urban transformations and a methodological entry point for urban studies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book offers a cautious and nuanced approach to feminist urban theory, avoiding the universal application of social reproduction theory. Instead, it focuses on historical contingency and social difference, highlighting the ways in which these factors shape the urban landscape.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEleven chapters, written by leading scholars in the field, explore various aspects of the contemporary crisis in social reproduction and the urban through the lenses of infrastructure and subjectivity formation. The chapters also explore feminist efforts to decolonize urban knowledge production, challenging dominant narratives and promoting more inclusive and diverse perspectives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy deepening our understanding of how individuals shape and reshape the spatial forms of their everyday lives, this book contributes to a broader understanding of the infinite variety of the urban. It is an essential reading for academics, researchers, and scholars within urban studies, human geography, gender and sexuality studies, and sociology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 506g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 152 x 230 x 19 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781119789154\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44106075341050,"sku":"9781119789154","price":17.84,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/511fd3a7c328931644cd82228a0b828b.jpg?v=1633316573","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/feminist-urban-theory-for-our-time-rethinking-social-reproduction-and-the-urban","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
