Description:
Urban planning and conservation experts provide a thorough comparative examination of Belfast, Beirut, Jerusalem, Mostar, and Nicosia--five urban areas physically partitioned in the throes of ethnic conflict.
Review Quotes: "An interesting interjection into a growing debate about violence in contemporary cities. . . . The book provides food for thought for both scholars of international politics and practitioners of urban planning at a time when violence in and against the city is rising up the agenda for both."-- "Cambridge Review of International Affairs"
