Sosyal Adalet ve Şehir

There are certain periods in the development of social sciences when books emerge that deeply shake and transform existing perspectives. Social Justice and the City is one of them. A classic work in space studies. Harvey, who made a critical examination of capitalist and socialist formulations regarding urbanism in separate chapters, in a sense, provided the first example of the application of historical materialism to space studies, and showed how social injustice coincides with the divisions and differentiations on space.
How are wealth and poverty distributed over geography? Is a fair distribution possible between different places, locations or regions? With what tools is it possible? Are these tools themselves fair? What makes the first arrivals to a city "masters" and the last arrivals "pariahs"?
Capitalism is often seen in the popular consciousness as a "corner-cutting"; Social Justice and the City proves that the development of capitalism can and should be looked at on geography as well, and that capitalism is also a "corner grab" played on space.
