This book addresses questions of pluralism in a time of increasing ethnic, religious and cultural diversity in the public and private spaces of our cities. It analyses different types of regulation - property rights, municipal ordinances and urban planning - and their role in protecting and supporting diversity.

Is it legitimate to prohibit political activities in a shopping centre, or the wearing of the full Islamic veil in a public space? This book addresses such questions of pluralism in a time of increasing ethnic, religious and cultural diversity in the public and private spaces of our cities.

Analysing different types of regulation — property rights, municipal ordinances and urban planning — the authors reflect on the kinds of rules public institutions should accept in relation to private spaces, and should promote in relation to public spaces, in order to protect and support pluralism.

Francesco Chiodelli is Associate Professor of Urban and Legal Geography at the University of Turin. Stefano Moroni is Professor in Planning at The Polytechnic University of Milan.
