Conclusion

Vincenzo Ruggiero
  • Uses a unique combination of analytical tools to show students how innovation and change is generated by alliances, conflicts and active networks of individuals pursuing their contrasting interests.
  • Provides a theoretical and empirical outline of contemporary urban life in Europe, providing students with a firm grounding in complex social and urban theory.
  • Looks at the transnational character of contemporary cities and shows the student how this creates 'landscapes of inequality' in which diverse vernaculars and expectations coexist.
  • Includes a vast range of comparative case studies providing the student with material for more in depth studies.
