417. Women Reclaiming the City book

Women Reclaiming the City, International Research on Urbanism, Architecture, and Planning, Edited by Tigran Haas. We are talking with: - Professor Loretta Lees (FAcSS, MAE), Director of the Initiative on Cities, Boston University Initiative on Cities. - Setha Low, Distinguished Professor of environmental psychology, anthropology, geography, and women’s studies and director of the public space research group at the graduate center of CUNY. - Karen A. Franck, Professor Emerita, Hillier College of Architecture and Design, New Jersey Institute of Technology. - Dr. Tigran Haas, Associate Professor, Lab Director, the Editor of this book. Order the book from Amazon. About the Book: The originality of Women Reclaiming the City lies not only in the variety of themes being presented, but also in the variety of all these different highly respected women researchers. This book is the first in which current societal themes revolving around urbanism, architecture, and city planning are put forth solely through female perspectives. It reveals the importance of having female lenses on certain societal debates. Twenty-five leading female urban scholars draw on principles, concepts, and positions that are foundational to other frameworks and fields specifically, critical studies, indigenous and ethnic studies, postcolonial theory, queer theory, feminist theory, progressive urban theory, social ecology, urban planning and design, architecture, urban economics and urban social geography, landscape urbanism, new urbanism, heritage management and urbanism, political ecology, and cultural studies— to present alternatives to the current classical theories and conceptualizations that have failed to engage a truly intersectional analysis of dominant city and urban discourses, policies, and practices. The book is intended for scholars of urban and regional studies, policy makers, and city planning professionals and advocates. ___ Keep Up the Good Work.
