Description: Urban Resettlements in the Global South provides new perspectives on resettlement through an urban studies lens. To date resettlement has been theorised through development studies and refugee studies but urban resettlement is also a major dimension of urban development in the Global South and may help to rethink contemporary urban dynamics between spectacular new town developments and rising incidences of eviction and displacement. Conceptualising resettlement as a binding notion between production/regeneration and destruction/demolition of urban space helps to illuminate interdependencies and to underline significant ambiguities within affected people's perspectives towards resettlement projects. This volume will offer an interesting selection of ten different case studies with rich empirical data from Latin America North and Sub - Saharan Africa and Asia focused on each stage of resettlement (before during after relocation) through different timescales. By offering a frame for analysing and rethinking resettlement within urban studies it will support any scholar or expert dealing with resettlement displacement and housing in an urban context seeking to improve housing and planning policies in and for the city.
