  • More about The Spatiality and Temporality of Urban Violence: Histories, Rhythms and Ruptures

This edited volume explores how the city produces and shapes violence through its spatial and temporal configuration and urban social relations, challenging binaries of the global North and South and the past and present.

Format: Hardback
Length: 304 pages
Publication date: 24 October 2023
Publisher: Manchester University Press


This edited volume delves into the intricate relationship between the city and violence, exploring how its spatial and temporal configuration, along with its rhythms, contribute to the production and shaping of violence. Recognizing violence as a spatiotemporal practice with generative capacities, the book posits that it not only impacts the built environment but also shapes urban space and time over extended periods through the influence of memory. It emphasizes the interconnectedness of space and time, suggesting that a deeper understanding of these analytical categories can provide fresh insights into urban violence. By presenting case studies from various world regions and historical periods, the book challenges the notion of binary distinctions between cities in the global North and South, as well as between the past and present. This multidisciplinary approach fosters a comprehensive understanding of the complex dynamics that contribute to urban violence and its potential mitigation.
