Sobre IBD

Class, race and gender (dis)advantages are situated in relation to urban-rural contrasts, where ’future selves’ are reconfigured in and through ’local’ and ’global’ sites: people inhabit shifting times and places, from industrial landscapes of the ’past’, to a current present and (imagined) ’cosmopolitan’ ’regenerated’ future. Fitting into Place adopts a multi-dimensional interdisciplinary approach to explore shifting geographies and temporalities that re-constitute ’city publics’ - and the place of the ’public sociologist’.
