Maggiori informazioni sul libro

War has entered the cities, evident since September 11, 2001, affecting not only Jerusalem and the Middle East but also Western metropolises. This book offers a comprehensive investigation of Jerusalem's current situation from a trilateral perspective, featuring insights from Israeli, Palestinian, and international experts. The discussion focuses on urban space production and usage amid the conflict, addressing issues such as the security fence, urban enclaves, exclaves, monuments, no-man’s-land, and the instrumentalization of infrastructures. These factors contribute to a stark contrast between developed and impoverished urban areas. The conflict does not solely result in destruction and violence; it also produces ambivalent effects, leading to new cultural and urban realities. Jerusalem has emerged as a prototype in the era of new urban violence, reflecting the complex interplay of conflict and urban life.
