The authors present a vivid portrayal of everyday city life and the processes of placemaking, while simultaneously highlighting how historical dimensions of injustice, violence, and fear shape the urban landscape. Despite these challenges, ordinary citizens persist in making the city their own, actively contributing to the creation of city structures and challenging practices of spatial demarcation that limit their daily social livelihood.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapters within the book shed light on the marginalized populations, including racial, gendered, and working-poor groups, who play a crucial role in the functioning of the city. However, their contributions often remain marginalized and overlooked, with city spaces designed in ways that ignore and negate the existence of those who protest inequity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne notable feature of this volume is its documentation and illustration of contestations of city spaces through artistic representation. Public spaces such as schools, art galleries, and museums are recognized as vital components of projects aimed at inhabiting, remembering, and reimagining the just city. Ordinary city spaces, such as public restrooms, serve as powerful platforms for expressing issues of gender inequity, spatial bias, and other forms of art-based protests.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCity dwellers, whether interested in understanding the \"making of the city\" or exploring the city as a space of possibilities and the good life, will find immense value in this comprehensive volume. Scholars of geography, space, art, and social justice will be captivated by the detailed descriptions of the complexity and unfairly structured city spaces in which they dwell, while simultaneously experiencing a mixture of marvel and appalled by the shocking realities portrayed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 610g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781138352766\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44105016901882,"sku":"9781138352766","price":151.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1653044384597_book.jpg?v=1653113671","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/spatialized-injustice-in-the-contemporary-city-protesting-as-public-pedagogy-9781138352766","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
