REBEL CITIES - DAVID HARVEY KARTONIERT (TB)

Long before Occupy  cities were the subject of much utopian thinking. They are the centers of
capital accumulation as well as of revolutionary politics  where deeper currents of social and
political change rise to the surface. Do the financiers and developers control access to urban
resources or do the people? Who dictates the quality and organization of daily life? Rebel
Cities places the city at the heart of both capital and class struggles  looking at locations
ranging from Johannesburg to Mumbai  from New York City to S o Paulo. Drawing on the Paris
Commune as well as Occupy Wall Street and the London Riots  Harvey asks how cities might be
reorganized in more socially just and ecologically sane ways--and how they can become the focus
for anti-capitalist resistance.
