| Description: |
As racially-based inequalities and spatial segregation deepen - strained by emergent problems associated with climate change, ever-widening differences between wealth and poverty, and the global economic crisis - this book issues a timely call for just and sustainable development. |
| Synopsis: |
Sutton, Kemp, and their contributors demonstrate the importance of place as a site of oppression and transformation, offering placemaking strategies that agents of change in a variety of disciplines can use in working with youth and adults. Their essays lay out both a theoretical terrain and an array of case studies that put theory into practice. This exciting new work documents the persistent intersection of race, place, and power; illustrates placemaking strategies that enable grassroots resistance; and explores the novel professional roles that new technologies make possible. It concludes with reflections upon the potential of transformative placemaking as an antidote to the erasure of place by global capitalism. |
