How did the urban poor cope with their surroundings? How did they interpret and adopt urban space in order to fight against their position at the periphery of society? This volume takes up these questions and investigates how far approaches of cultural sciences can contribute to overcome the »exoticization of the ghetto« (Loïc Wacquant) and instead to look at the heterogeneity and individuality behind the facades. It opens new perspectives for the research of poverty and inequalities that do not stop at collective categories.Country/Region of Manufacture: DEItem Width: 2mmBook Series: Mainz Historical Cultural SciencesGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Social SciencesRelease Year: 2013 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
