Ideal for scholars and students of urban studies, sociology, geography, and social sciences interested in the dynamics of urban violence and spatial theory.
This interdisciplinary edited volume studies practices and representations of urban violence from a spatiotemporal perspective. It discusses how the spatial and temporal characteristics of the urban can produce and shape violence, and how practices as well as memories of violence transform spatialities and temporalities of cities.

Description
The Spatiality and Temporality of Urban Violence is an edited volume that explores how the city, with its spatial and temporal configuration and rhythms, produces and shapes violence. This examination considers both the built environment and particular 'urban' social relations.
The book builds on the insight that violence itself is a spatiotemporal practice with generative capacities, which produces and transforms urban space and time in the long term, also through the impact of memory. The analytical categories of space and time must be thought as inextricably linked with each other. Expanding this fundamental conceptual idea offers fresh perspectives on urban violence.
The book unites case studies on different world regions and historical periods, challenging assumed binaries of cities in the global North and South, and the past and present.
