Summary This book provides an original research perspective in the field of contemporary urban conflicts. Even though violent conflicts have transformed cities during the whole XX century, it is nowadays possible to identify the softer phenomenon of tensions as a specific contemporary both social and spatial urban changes catalyst. Through a collection of essays from various disciplines focusing on international case studies from India to Europe to Latin America the publication explores the multifaceted concept of spatial tensions as a lens for better understanding contemporary urban transformations. While tensions many times depend on spatial dispositives and superstructures, they also offer a powerful key for design practices and strategies.
