Can activism be considered a leisure activity? Can the Occupy movement, local campaigns for change and lone acts of personal resistance be understood as events? Within the field of Events Management the content of events is generally analyzed within three categories—culture, sport or business. Such a typology can be helpful as a heuristic for interpretation and analysis within a commercial paradigm. However, this framework overlooks and depoliticizes a significant variety of events, those more accurately construed as protest. Protests as Events is the first book to explore activism as a leisure activity and protests as events; using a fresh interpretation of event to develop a new critical politics of events and leisure. Bringing together a range of cutting edge research from around the world, it explores a variety of protests through the lens of events studies and leisure in order to understand how the study of events management might be conceptualized in the protest space.

Recent years have seen a gathering interest in the importance of real estate development to the growth and development of cities. This has included theoretical work on such topics as land rent and property rights as well as empirical studies on property investments, assetization, securitization, and the effects of changing property values on economic growth and the global status of cities. In the field of urban political economy, attention has turned particularly to the financialization of land and the built environment and to the globalization of property ownership, real estate development, and architectural design. This edited volume brings together a collection of original investigations ...
This book examines the politics of crime and the response to it in Potchefstroom, a small settler colonial city in South Africa. It draws on the city’s everyday practices and experiences to offer local bottom-up insights into security beyond the state. The book provides a comprehensive understanding of security beyond the state and how security workers and residents experience and perceive their own security practices, their daily interactions with other security providers which influences power dynamics between those who express fear through various platforms and those deemed potential criminals. It aids in re-conceptualising violence and security governance in South Africa with a view to...
This book critically examines the public participation processes in urban planning and development by evaluating the operations of Planning Advisory Committees (PACs) through two meta-criteria of fairness and effectiveness. Traditional models of public participation in planning have long been criticized for separating planners from the public. This book proposes a novel conceptual model to address the gaps in existing practices in order to encourage greater public involvement in planning decisions and policymaking. It assesses the application of the evaluative framework for PACs as a new approach to public participation evaluation in urban planning. With a case study focused on the PACs in I...
‘Herkes ‘değişti’ dememi bekliyor. Ben de onların kafasını karıştırmak için, ‘değişmedi’ diyorum. Benim İstanbul’um yerinde duruyor, zaten onu aramayı sürdürdüğümüz sürece kaybetmeniz mümkün değil...’ John Freely. İstanbul’un dönüşümünü kavramak ya da takip etmek zor olsa da; bu kentin bir sakini olarak aslında kendi kurduğumuz kentte yaşamaya devam ediyoruz: kendi Güzel İstanbul’umuzda... Ve elbette ki, her kentte olduğu gibi bu kent de dönüşecek, hatta farklı değişkenlere bağlı olarak yıkılıp yeniden ve yeniden kurulacak. Bu dönüşümlere rağmen John Freely ‘İstanbul değişti mi?’ sorusuna nasıl değişmedi yanıtını veriyorsa, belleğimizdeki ‘İstanbul’ da değişmiyor. Bir Şehri Düşünürken: İstanbul, yazarlarının akademik bakışıyla, İstanbul’u, yapıları, meydanları, bahçeleri, parkları, sokakları ağırlıklı olarak kamusal paylaşım alanları üzerinden yorumlayan ve aradığı İstanbul’a varmak için umutlu olan yazılardan oluşuyor. Keyifle okumanız dileğiyle...
Visual Participatory Arts Based Research in the Cities maps ontological, aesthetic and ethic differences between humanist and posthumanist arts-based research, while providing insight on methodological orientations to develop arts-based research with frameworks based on process-philosophies. It is the first book on arts-based research which focuses on the city, adopting a posthumanist approach to the assembled nature of urban environments, where agency is distributed across infrastructures, technologies, spaces, things, and bodies. Chapters one to seven feature a series of studies, situated in different cities in Europe and the Americas, which outline experiences of movement, inhabitancy, in...
