The everyday decisions and tools bound up in urban growth accelerate a malign colonization of land, resources, air and water, thereby exacerbating a broad variety of social and environmental harms. In addition to the quotidian nature of urban growth, this book also explores the 'crisis' in the form of extreme fire events in urban areas. Moving between local planning and national and international climate change mitigation policies and approaches, this book highlights various 'necropolicies' - policies causing harm and death to more-than-human populations. Such death-bound policies are the result of neoliberal urban development, fueled by state-corporate relations and prosperity concerns. In sum, this book connects green and urban criminology, urban studies and planning to reveal how ordinary and extraordinary challenges are entangled in urban design, harm and, most importantly, imagining alternative futures and cities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKAJSA LUNDBERG is a research fellow at the Centre for Urban Research in the School of Global, Urban and Social Studies at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 216\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.56 x 9.07 x 5.99 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 08, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67958233333981,"sku":"9781978846579","price":67.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9867\/8237\/files\/J4sGJFxioU9781978846579.webp?v=1790808660","url":"https:\/\/handfulofbooks.com\/products\/ordinary-and-extraordinary-harms-in-the-city-a-green-criminological-analysis-paperback","provider":"Handful of Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
