RIGHT TO THE CITY.
While reading “Right to the City” one thing that stood out to me was Henri Lefebvre’s critique on urban fragmentation, more specifically Spatial Divisions and the inequality within it. The idea that though a city can have a small radius but a large diversity of social classes is intriguing. This is something I looked into while studying abroad in Charleston, last semester. Boundaries that create these differences can be as small as an intangible neighborhood line, to something more tangible like investments in a certain area. Although these may seem like small attributes of social/special inequality- these are aspects that all together contribute to the difference.
