Following the turbulent events of the first few years of the 21st
century, the growth of new security and disaster measures have led
to significant changes to urban design and the management of urban
space. This book blends the genealogical method of Foucault with
the theory of rhythms by Lefebvre to examine these changes. The
spatial history of urban disaster is linked to the rhythms of
everyday urban experience to offer a revised understanding of the
regulation of order and disorder in the city. In doing so, the book
highlights issues of 'hardening' space, the drift from civil
defence to civil protection to civil contingencies and resilience;
this assessment realigns the potential impact of tightening
security practices and resilient ways of thinking, doing and acting
on societal security. This also links to growing concerns about
quality of life over the use and potential abuse of security and
disaster legislation for managing social unrest. Examples studied
include the increased exclusion of minorities (such as young
people) from democracy and public life; security oriented
interventions in the ethnic minority communities, the use of
automated technologies in policing civil and minor offences (e.g.
digital plate recognition and speeding) and the interplay of
diverse social groups in more commercially aligned and increasingly
'securitised' public spaces of the 'entrepreneurial' city. This
book highlights many significant problems with the direction of
British democracy and suggests there may be both positive and
negative results from becoming more resilient. While providing a
critical appraisal of the realignment of neoliberal democracy at
large, it also links discussion on 'gentrification', 'revanchism'
and 'urban security' to a forward looking agenda for further
research.

Two accounts of one twenty-nine day 854 mile run from John O'Groats
to Land's End in aid of The Cure Parkinson's Trust. 'The hard
training is done, the organisation complete, the big day has
arrived. Let the nerves settle, eat well, think of the challenge
ahead, the money you will raise, the experience of a lifetime, the
long hard road, the challenge of the goal, getting up tired every
morning, collapsing every night knowing that you are a day nearer
achieving your dream. There will be hard times, fun times, painful
times, and pleasure times. Go and live your dream, run well, run
easy and the joy and satisfaction of finishing will live with you
forever.' - Sharon Gaytor
