Editor's Note

Editor's Note am pleased to present this issue of City & Society, which offers six articles addressing the worldwide phenomenon of urban spatial segregation. In bringing this issue to press, I have worked closely with Guest Editor Petra Kuppinger, of Monmouth College. Dr. Kuppinger, who also serves as Associate Editor of City & Society, has in turn worked closely and unstintingly with the various contributors. As she points out in her introductory essay, this collection began as a series of individual submissions that were grouped together into a session at the annual meetings of the American Anthropological Association in 2002. Although the authors had not previously been aware of one another’s work, their papers nevertheless resonated very well with each other, as did the paper by Mark-Anthony Falzon, which was added to the collection at a later date. The end result of this scholarly collaboration is a set of studies that highlight a variety of perspectives and a range of issues to which attention must be paid in order to further our understanding of particular instances of urban spatial segregation. All contributions strongly support Dr. Kuppinger’s contention that useful insights come only from clear delineation of local particularities that shape the ways in which agents in specific urban settings appropriate globally-circulating models of urban design.

Abstract

am pleased to present this issue of City & Society, which offers six articles addressing the worldwide phenomenon of urban spatial segregation. In bringing this issue to press, I have worked closely with Guest Editor Petra Kuppinger, of Monmouth College. Dr. Kuppinger, who also serves as Associate Editor of City & Society, has in turn worked closely and unstintingly with the various contributors. As she points out in her introductory essay, this collection began as a series of individual submissions that were grouped together into a session at the annual meetings of the American Anthropological Association in 2002. Although the authors had not previously been aware of one another’s work, their papers nevertheless resonated very well with each other, as did the paper by Mark-Anthony Falzon, which was added to the collection at a later date. The end result of this scholarly collaboration is a set of studies that highlight a variety of perspectives and a range of issues to which attention must be paid in order to further our understanding of particular instances of urban spatial segregation. All contributions strongly support Dr. Kuppinger’s contention that useful insights come only from clear delineation of local particularities that shape the ways in which agents in specific urban settings appropriate globally-circulating models of urban design.
