Warfare in the twenty-first century goes well beyond conventional armies and nation-states. In a world of diffuse conflicts taking place across sprawling cities, war has become fragmented and uneven to match its settings. Yet the analysis of failed states, civil war, and state building rarely considers the city, rather than the country, as the terrain of battle. In Cities at War, Mary Kaldor and Saskia Sassen assemble an international team of scholars to examine cities as sites of contemporary warfare and insecurity. Reflecting Kaldor’s expertise on security cultures and Sassen’s perspective on cities and their geographies, they develop new insight into how cities and their residents encounter instability and conflict, as well as the ways in which urban forms provide possibilities for countering violence. Through a series of case studies of cities including Baghdad, Bogotá, Ciudad Juarez, Kabul, and Karachi, the book reveals the unequal distribution of insecurity as well as how urban capabilities might offer resistance and hope. Through analyses of how contemporary forms of identity, inequality, and segregation interact with the built environment, Cities at War explains why and how political violence has become increasingly urbanized. It also points toward the capacity of the city to shape a different kind of urban subjectivity that can serve as a foundation for a more peaceful and equitable future.

A City At War

A City At War written by Julie S. Danskin and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2013 with Dundee (Scotland) categories.

Dundee's memory of the First World War is stamped indelibly atop its starkest landmark, Dundee Law. This book concentrates on local experiences of the war to explore issues such as censorship, officer-man relations, social composition and the role of newspapers, allowing a more human story to take shape. Dundee had a strong human investment in the war, nowhere more so than in its local battalion, the 4th Black Watch, 'Dundee's Own'. Drawing on a wealth of archival material, particularly local newspapers, diaries and correspondence as well as art, photography and poetry, Julie Danskin draws out the very personal stories of the 'Fourth' from its leaving Dundee in February 1915 to its amalgamation in March 1916 following heavy losses suffered at the Battle of Loos. Although the history of the First World War is so often dictated by a narrative of battles and tactics, this book is very much Dundee's story. With testimonies from the pages of the People's Journal to the heart-breaking letters of two brothers from Barnhill, this book depicts how Dundee's citizens at home and abroad experienced the war in training, in reserve, in battle, and in mourning.
