The central focus of this book is how political dissent gains meaning and momentum - and is regulated and policed - in the real, physical spaces of the city. Demands for heightened surveillance and security throw into sharp relief timeless questions about the nature of public space, how it is to be used, and under what conditions. Blending historical and geographical analysis, this book examines the vital relationship between struggles over public space and movements for social justice in the United States.
