‘Tilman Schwarze provides us with a gem of a book. A careful re-read and provocative application of Henri Lefebvre’s work provides us with important insights into the current perplexing realities of race-class hegemony and the marginalization of African American neighbourhoods’ in Chicago and beyond. For anyone desiring to comprehend the conditions of current urban life in the U.S. city, this book is an essential reading.’
--David Wilson, Professor of Geography and Urban Planning, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, US
‘In this imaginative reinterpretation of Henri Lefebvre’s ideas about the production of space, Tilman Schwarze offers a richly detailed analysis of urban politics and everyday life on the South Side of Chicago. The book’s unique contribution is to lay out new methodological tools for investigating the entrenched spatial inequalities and injustices which accompany the racialization of space in the U.S. city. This is an impressive piece of interdisciplinary critical urban scholarship written by an early career researcher operating at the forefront of the field.’ --Andrew E.G. Jonas, Professor of Human Geography, University of Hull, UK
