Cities have emerged as the epicentres for many of today's
ethno-national and religious conflicts. In twelve multidisciplinary
essays, Locating Urban Conflicts: Ethnicity, Nationalism and the
Everyday brings together key themes that dominate our current
political, social and cultural attention: emerging areas of
contestation in rapidly changing and modernising cities, the
resulting forms of habitation and spatial practice, and the effects
of extreme and/or enduring conflicts upon ordinary civilian life.
Such problems may be generated by larger state and regional issues
to do with national identity, borders and territory, but in all
cases, everyday life is regularly affected, with strong
consequences for the urban arena. Section themes on Spatial
Horizons, Reassessing Divisions, and Being Modern, cross-cut the
research on cities in Europe and the Middle East, identifying
common concerns against which the examples in this volume can be
considered. Together the chapters reveal critical issues affecting
ethno-national conflict in cities today.
