Cities at the Heart of Inequalities
Description :
Cities have become the major habitat for human societies. They are also the places where the starkest social inequalities show up. Income, social, land and housing inequalities shape the built environment and living conditions of different neighborhoods of cities, and in return, unequal access to services, environmental quality and favorable health conditions in different neighborhoods and cities fuel the reproduction of interpersonal inequalities.
This book examines how inequalities are produced and reproduced both within and between cities. In particular, we review land rent and social segregation theories from diverse disciplinary references and through examples taken from around the world. The attraction of urban centralities, which is further reinforced by the growing financialization of property and urban capital, is also analyzed through the lens of its influence on rent-seeking mechanisms and the ever increasing pressure of population migration.
Les villes au coeur des inégalités examine la façon dont ces inégalités sont produites et reproduites, à la fois dans et entre les villes. Les théories de la rente foncière et de la ségrégation sociale sont vues à travers le prisme d’une diversité de références disciplinaires et au moyen d’exemples pris dans différentes parties du monde. Cet ouvrage analyse également l’attraction des centralités urbaines en lien avec la pression migratoire, et les effets de la financiarisation croissante de la propriété et du capital urbain.
