‘The chapters in this volume push the boundaries of urban politics in much needed, insightful, and timely ways. With an impressive group of scholars, the focus is multidisciplinary, multiscalar, comparative, and cutting edge. Here urban governance becomes more than structure to include social movements and citizen participation. Policy topics include traditional foci such as housing and development but also increasingly important and now urban concerns such as climate change, pandemics, intersectionality, immigration, race, aging, and sexual identities. The Handbook is an excellent read for both scholars and students wanting to know about the expanding boundaries of urban politics.’
– Laura Reese, Michigan State University, US
