The Social Control of Cities: A Comparative Perspective

The Social Control of Cities: A Comparative Perspective by Sophie Body-Gendrot
English | Apr. 17, 2000 | ISBN: 0631205209 | 328 Pages | PDF | 2 MB

In this ground-breaking study, Sophie Body-Gendrot provides a comparative analysis of the growing problem of new forms of poverty and social marginalization in contemporary advanced societies. Focusing on concrete local and urban settings in the US, UK and France, the book examines relationships between national elites, including their policy rhetorics, and the "marginalized" or powerless urban populations most affected by economic restructuring.
