Research handbooks in urban studies
Content:
"This authoritative Handbook provides a comprehensive overview of research into urban politics and policy in cities across the globe. Leading scholars examine the position of urban politics within political science and analyse the critical approaches and interdisciplinary pressures that are broadening the field. Beginning with the study of institutions and power, this Handbook surveys the development and theoretical underpinnings of key research areas in urban politics. It highlights the dynamism of the field drawing on diverse disciplines including sociology, geography and urban planning in addition to political science. Contributing authors cover often overlooked topics, such as feminist urban interventions, Indigenous cities, arts and culture, and age-friendly cities. Adopting a forward-thinking perspective, they explore the future of vital policy areas including housing, poverty, climate change and health, and identify important opportunities for further scholarly engagement and practical application. The Handbook of Urban Politics and Policy is an invaluable resource for students and scholars of urban and regional studies, public policy and cities. It is also an excellent guide for managers, activists and policy-makers seeking to understand urban problems and devise effective policy solutions"--
