OverviewAfter Suburbia presents state-of-the-art suburban research to examine twenty-first-century cities from the point of view of their peripheries. After Suburbia presents a cross-section of state-of-the-art scholarship in critical global suburban research and provides an in-depth study of the planet's urban peripheries to grasp the forms of urbanization in the twenty-first century. Based on cutting-edge conceptual thought and steeped in richly detailed empirical work conducted over the past decade, After Suburbia draws on research from Asia, Africa, Australia, Europe, and the Americas to showcase comprehensive global scholarship on the urban periphery. Contributors explicitly reject the traditional centre-periphery dichotomy and the prioritization of epistemologies that favour the Global North, especially the North American cases, over other experiences. In doing so, the book strongly advances the notion of a post-suburban reality in which traditional dynamics of urban extension outward from the centre are replaced by a set of complex contradictory developments. After Suburbia examines multiple centralities and diverse peripheries which mesh to produce a surprisingly contradictory and diverse metropolitan landscape.

After Suburbia: Peripheral Notes on Urban Theory Roger Keil Contributors List and Legend of ImagesReviewsAfter Suburbia is one of the most significant results of an unprecedented collective research effort on urban peripheries. Its major achievement is to place those peripheries at the core of urban theory. It will be unwise to consider doing research on suburbs without reading this collection. - Eric Charmes, Research Director, ENTPE, University of Lyon Rather than strictly empirical objects, suburbs here are tools exploring the intricate fabric and plurality of urbanization, hinges that expose just how varied and extensive the non-city has become, as well as the intensity of conceptual and political contestations about the nature of urban life. Assembling such an illustrative team of researchers over many years to so comprehensively chart new terrain is itself an enormous accomplishment. - AbdouMaliq Simone, Senior Professorial Fellow at the Urban Institute, University of Sheffield """After Suburbia is one of the most significant results of an unprecedented collective research effort on urban peripheries.
