Building the Inclusive City: Theory and Practice for Confronting Urban Segregation

Espino addresses ethnic and economic segregation as a multidimensional urban problem involving access, infrastructure, social isolation, violence and economic opportunity. The book combines explanatory frameworks with practical responses and therefore offers a strong interdisciplinary basis for EDI-oriented urban design. Its relevance lies in showing how exclusion is spatially organised and how planning, architecture and policy can either reinforce or mitigate unequal urban geographies.
