Abstract

Hence implications that the transition from socialism follows an "ongoing process that can stretch over a period of decades" don't do a justice to a nuanced account that this book offers (307). The book editors, Lisa B.W. Drummond and Douglas Young ask: "what is socialist about any given urban space" and what is it, about some urban spaces, that shape their perception as being socialist in one way or another (301)?
