Shaking Up the City

Reviews / Votes

"Slater's broad approach and global lens grant this book great potential to help scholars, especially younger ones, to rethink the logic behind research questions and approaches." * Ethnic and Racial Studies * "Sitting down with Shaking Up the City: Ignorance, Inequality, and the Urban Question is like pulling up a chair with Tom Slater to talk about the state of play of urban studies. . . .Yet the highlight of this work is the intellectual contribution, which I see as holding the idea of epistemology - that is, the production of knowledge - and the idea of agnotology - that is, the production of ignorance - in tension with each other." * Urban Studies * "Shaking Up the City sets a new direction of critical urban geography." * Antipode * "Slater offers important insight for urban scholars and practitioners by showing how ideology, politics, and institutional arrangements interact to narrow urban policy choice sets." * Journal of the American Planning Association * "A detailed and very well-written account of several important concepts in critical urban theory." * Housing Studies *
