ABSTRACT

In previous chapters, the webs of cross-cutting relationships which make up city life have been highlighted through a variety of connections which combine and settle in particular ways. Whether it be the comings and goings of different cultures within cities, or nature turning up on the doorstep in often surprising and unsettling ways, the concern has largely been one and the same: to explore the resultant intensity and mix as things come together in one place. And so it is with power and cities.
