Description :
The paper seeks to make a practical as well as theoretical intervention in relation to gender and feminist perspectives on UK urban policy. It shows that For example, forms of women-centred organising have been relied on in a range of government projects seeking to build community and participation within poor neighbourhoods. It argues for the reinvigoration of feminist visions of cities that suggest different framings of aspects of urban life. For example, rethinking the lines between public and private spheres might result in different forms of housing or sites of civic participation.
