| Abstract | "Parastou Saberi argues that Toronto's urban policies are influenced by a territorialized and racialized security agenda-one that parallels the "War on Terror." Focusing on the figure of the immigrant and so-called immigrant neighborhoods as the targets of urban policy, Saberi offers an innovative, multidisciplinary approach to the politics of racialization and the governing of alterity through space in contemporary cities"-- Provided by publisher. |
