| book description |

How do we find new ways of urban being and doing? This edited collection explores how global capitalism has shaped cities into sites of inequality, precarity and alienation—spaces designed to serve profit rather than people. Drawing on diverse examples, the book analyses how urban life is failing under current economic systems and offers real-world alternatives that promote human flourishing. From rethinking urban governance to exploring community-led initiatives, the collection offers evidence-based visions for cities grounded in care, equity and social purpose. It is a vital resource for anyone seeking to understand and transform urban life in the face of deepening global crises.
