Urban renaissance in the age of terrorism: revanchism, automated social control or the end of reflection?

Abstract

This review assesses how a range of recent urban-related literatures, linked to the enhanced security and surveillance within urban spaces, technologies of control, and the strategies and tactics of terrorism and counter terrorism, intersect to illuminate the way in which cities function and are governed in the post-September 11th era. In particular, it will highlight different conceptual aspects and illustrative accounts of the relationship between urban renaissance and what might be referred to as urban revanchism, in the age of terrorism.
