| dc.description.abstract | Urbanization has progressively constituted a primary site of endless capital accumulation, resulting in many forms of barbarism and violence on whole populations in the name of profit. In other words, the creative destruction has taken not only a physical toll but destroyed social solidarities, swept aside any pretenses of democratic urban governance, exaggerated social inequalities and has increasingly terror as its primary mode of social regulation. Our proposition is based on the understanding that this urban crisis is the common ground of the everyday urban conflicts in which our cities speak, such as the protests that occurred in the United States, Egypt, Spain, Turkey, Brazil, Israel, and Greece. Planning theory and research have since long recognized the importance of the conflict. Contention and conflict around urban development policies and plans are recurrent features of urban life, and cycles of social mobilization and contention are important factors in shaping urban societies. In addition, research on urban conflicts has played a key role in urban policy studies. By contentious politics we mean episodic, public, collective interaction among makers of claims and their objects when at least one government is a claimant, an object of claim, or a party to the claim; and the claims would, if realized, affect the interests of at least one of the claimants. | |
