Title: 'Race', culture and the right to the city
Description: "Adopting a perspective inspired by Henri Lefebvre, this book considers the spread of multiculture from the central city to the periphery andconsiders the role that 'race' continues to play in structuring the metropolis, taking London, New York and Paris as examples."--Publisher's website.

'Race', Culture and the Right to the City offers a clear and critical account of the spread of multiculture from the central city to the periphery. The text adopts an international and interdisciplinary approach and explores multicultural life in London, Paris and New York, drawing upon primary and secondary research. The spatialized perspective of the book is inspired by Henri Lefebvre's work on the production of space and considers the role that 'race' continues to play in structuring the metropolis at a multiplicity of levels. In particular a contrast is drawn between the racialized inner cities of the 20th century and the 'outer-inner cities' that characterize the contemporary global city. -- Back cover.
