Taking a critical perspective, this book rethinks public space in
the context of contemporary global health and economic crises, as
well as technological, political and cultural change. In order to
do so, Ali Madanipour brings together two often unrelated
discourses: public space and social inclusion, interrogating the
potential for public spaces to contribute to inclusive social
practices. Organized in two parts, the book first highlights
various common meanings and philosophical concepts of public space,
examining them in their constitution and application. Madanipour
runs these concepts past the test of social practice, through the
economic, political and cultural dimensions of social exclusion and
inclusion. Chapters further analyse public space in its different
forms: physical, institutional and technological, offering a
wide-ranging and thought-provoking take on the concept. Timely and
innovative, this book will be an invigorating read for urban
studies, planning and human geography scholars, particularly those
focusing on public space, social inclusion and urban processes.
