Description
London is a major global city that attracts a massive influx of capital while concentrating power and wealth in the hands of the few, with many communities suffering from housing shortages, poverty, and dispossession. How can its diverse communities fight back against exclusionary regeneration projects?
This accessible book tells the story of the Voice4Deptford campaign in Southeast London, which has taken radical democratic and creative action to resist the destructive influence of neoliberalism at the community level. It shows how top-down change is challenged and, together with case studies from across London, offers powerful ways forward for other urban communities globally.
