Public spaces have long been the focus of urban social activity,
but investigations of how public space works often adopt only one
of several possible perspectives, which restricts the questions
that can be asked and the answers that can be considered. In this
volume, Anthony Orum and Zachary Neal explore how public space can
be a facilitator of civil order, a site for power and resistance,
and a stage for art, theatre, and performance. They bring together
these frequently unconnected models for understanding public space,
collecting classic and contemporary readings that illustrate each,
and synthesizing them in a series of original essays. Throughout,
they offer questions to provoke discussion, and conclude with
thoughts on how these models can be combined by future scholars of
public space to yield more comprehensive understanding of how
public space works.
