This book contains a collection of cutting-edge chapters that
explore various connections between urban living, sexuality and
sexual desire around the world. The key themes featured address a
number of topical issues including: the controversies and debates
raging around the evolution, defining patterns and appropriate
regulation of commercial sex zones and markets in the urban
landscape how gay public spaces, districts and 'gay villages'
emerged and developed in various towns and cities around the world
how changing attitudes to, and the usage of urban sexual spaces, as
depicted in iconic television series such as Sex and the City and
Queer as Folk, reflect the reality of working women's or gay men's
changing life experiences. With detailed case studies, and a strong
interdisciplinary appeal, this book will be a valuable reference
for postgraduates and advanced students in the fields of cultural
studies as well as human, urban and social geography. This book was
previously published as a special issue of the journal Urban
Studies.
