Book Synopsis Urban Inequalities by : Italo Pardo

Download or read book Urban Inequalities written by Italo Pardo and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-01-05 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection brings together leading thinkers on human beings in urban spaces and inequalities therein. The contributors eschew conceptual confusion between equality — of opportunity, of access, of the right to compete for whatever goal one chooses to pursue — and levelling. The discussions develop in the belief that old and emerging forms of inequality in urban settings need to be understood in depth, as does the machinery that, as masterfully elucidated by Hannah Arendt, operates behind oppression to sustain power and inequality. Anthropologists and fellow ethnographically-committed social scientists examine socio-economic, cultural and political forms of urban inequality in different settings, helping to address comparatively these dynamics.
