Learning the City: Translocal Assemblage and Urban Politics critically examines the relationship between knowledge, learning, and urban politics, arguing both for the centrality of learning for political strategies and developing a progressive international urbanism. * Presents a distinct approach to conceptualising the city through the lens of urban learning * Integrates fieldwork conducted in Mumbai's informal settlements with debates on urban policy, political economy, and development * Considers how knowledge and learning are conceived and created in cities * Addresses the way knowledge travels and opportunities for learning about urbanism between North and South
Colin McFarlane is Lecturer in Human Geography at Durham University, UK. His research focuses on urban geography, especially theorising the intersections between urban inequality, materiality, and knowledge.
