"If there are traces of my long and secret conversations with Cornell’s boxes in my previous books, Dark Museum and Small, Illustrated World (and also in my translation of Dime Store Alchemy, a book Charles Simic wrote in honor of the artist), then the text that you, the reader, now have in your hands may serve as a record of my encounters with his films. Specifically, my new exploration begins with this film image: The little girl who passes by us, naked, atop a white steed, her hair covering her body as if she were a miniature, unsettling, version of Lady Godiva (this image appears in his film Children’s Trilogy)."—María Negroni, from the Prologue

"Reading The Just City, one becomes aware that urban scholarship has been inexorably leading towards a book exactly like this one for a long time. These essays synthesize the debates that engaged us in our studies of the 20th-century city, and chart out the intellectual path we will be taking in the 21st."
-- Dennis R. Judd, University of Illinois at Chicago

"Here at last are essays for our times. With the collapse of the neo-liberal order, we must rethink how we can construct a new life in cities around the world, a life based on conceptions of social justice. The essays in this volume are not only state of the art, but are written with passion, providing examples to stir the embers of belief that we can build a better world."

-- John Friedmann, Prof. emeritus UCLA, Hon. Professor, University of British Columbia
"Cities were where the division of labour began. Then planned cities housed the ordered life of bourgeois commerce but excluded generations of women, poor people and migrants from the benefits of urban living. The idealised city was not the just city. Today, difference is recognised in urban discourses but a widening gap separates those who gain from a city’s opportunities and those who are disenfranchised on a global scale. Given an urgent need to understand how urban justice can be produced, this book is timely. It brings together some of the most accomplished commentators in the field. The writing is always incisive, ranging from philosophical discussion to examination of tensions in planning debates and case studies. The book offers a coherent approach without masking complexities, and should be required reading for anyone involved in urban studies, planning and governance."

-- Malcolm Miles, Professor of Cultural Theory, University of Plymouth, UK
"The editors have assembled a thought provoking collection of theoretical and empirical essays that offer a broad introduction to the Just City movement of planners and urbanists. Its editors and contributors take us through a comprehensive analysis of the relationships between justice and the lived urban environment."
-- Herbert J Gans, author, IMAGINING AMERICA IN 2033. Robert S Lynd Prof. Emeritus of Sociology, Columbia University
Notwithstanding the slant of the book toward East Coast secular progressives, this is a provocative collection of articles that readers will find richly rewarding. In the shadow of corporate capitalism and the preoccupation with economic efficiency, in recent decades planners have been almost embarrassed to speak the language of justice. If this book helps to release full-throated calls for urban justice, it will have fulfilled an important function. Todd Swanstrom University of Missouri-St Louis

The Man Who Pays The Rent

Shakespeare

A subtle, heart-rending Estonian novel about a father in the last few months of his life trying to reconstruct the circumstances of his daughter’s suicide…the father and the narrator of this story, which has been translated from the Estonian in straightforward, engaging prose…seeks out other members of the commune as well as people who interacted with Anni before she went there…and no single perspective suffices to explain her life and death. We get different facets of her personality…”



“Raud (The Brother, 2016, etc.) treats his narrator and all of his interviewees with respect and allows them to tell their versions of Anni’s story. It turns out there are no easy—and ultimately no satisfying—answers to explain Anni’s transformation from a bright young schoolgirl to a member of what amounted to a religious cult.”
