Abstract

Dit boek kwam tot stand naar aanleiding van een verzoek van de Nederlandse overheid om bij haar planning rond huisvesting en ruimtelijke ordening te kunnen beschikken over een ruimere, historisch onderbouwde visie over de toekomst van 'de stad'. De bedoeling was na te gaan of en zo ja welke rode draad er in de visie op stadsontwikkeling in de loop der eeuwen is terug te vinden en welke desgevallend de nieuwe eisen zijn die zich stellen rond de uitbouw van steden in de 21ste eeuw. Centraal staat hierbij de rol van de migratie en de invloed ervan op burgerschap en stadsontwikkeling in de meest brede zin, zoals veiligheid, woonbeleid, culturele authenticiteit, economie, stedenbouw, architectuur, mobiliteit en milieu.

Abstract

"Breaking with the exoticizing cast of public discourse and conventional research, Urban Outcasts takes the reader inside the black ghetto of Chicago and the deindustrializing banlieue of Paris to discover that urban marginality is not everywhere the same. Drawing on a wealth of original field, survey and historical data, Loic Wacquant shows that the involution of America's urban core after the 1960s is due not to the emergence of an 'underclass', but to the joint withdrawal of market and state fostered by public policies of racial separation and urban abandonment. In European cities, by contrast, the spread of districts of 'exclusion' does not herald the formation of ghettos. It stems from the decomposition of working-class territories under the press of mass unemployment, the casualization of work and the ethnic mixing of populations hitherto segregated, spawning urban formations akin to 'anti-ghettos'."--BOOK JACKET.
