Klappentext zu „Temporary Appropriation in Cities “
This book conceptualises and illustrates temporary appropriation as an urban phenomenon, exploring its contributions to citizenship, urban social sustainability and urban health. It explains how some forms of appropriation can be subversive, existing in a grey area between legal and illegal activities in the city.
The book explores the complex and the multi-scalar nature of temporary appropriation, and touches on its relationship to issues such as:
- sustainability and building re-use;
- culture;
- inclusivity, including socio-spatial inclusion;
- streetscape design;
- homelessness; and
- regulations controlling the use of public spaces.
Since urban populations are certain to grow further, this is a key topic for understanding urban dynamics, and this book will be of interest to academics and practitioners alike.
