The book presents an in-depth and theoretically-grounded analysis
of urban gardening practices (re)emerging worldwide as new forms of
bottom-up socio-political participation. By complementing the
scholarly perspectives through posing real cases, it focuses on how
these practices are able to address - together with environmental
and planning questions - the most fundamental issues of spatial
justice, social cohesion, inclusiveness, social innovations and
equity in cities. Through a critical exploration of international
case studies, this collection investigates whether, and how,
gardeners are willing and able to contrast urban spatial
arrangements that produce peculiar forms of social organisation and
structures for inclusion and exclusion, by considering pervasive
inequalities in the access to space, natural resources and
services, as well as considerable disparities in living conditions.
