Henri Lefebvre - Space, Philosophy and the Political (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781350537811)

A fresh interdisciplinary examination of the thought of Henri Lefebvre which sheds light on the politics of utopia and commoning through the examination of the wide-ranging socio-political dimensions of space.

The book emphasizes political elements of Lefebvre's work that have been little explored in research such as his understanding of nationalism, ideology and anti-fascism, while further extending existing research on key concepts by Lefebvre, such as the right to the city, through interdisciplinary perspectives and interpretations. Chapters consider how Lefebvre's thought can contribute to various fields of knowledge such as philosophy and critical studies, politics, space and urban studies, gender and the body. This collection sheds light on space as a site of political conflict and as a potential commons, as well as to raise new discussions and approaches to the question of self-governance.
