Urban Safety and Security

The book gives account of different strategies showing an impact on urban safety and security in European and non-European cities - being it the main goal or only a 'secondary effect' of the observed urban policies, and being their result real or only perceived. The essays describe the process, the stakeholders as well as the peculiar tools that have been employed. They reveal site-specific consequences both on the urban fabric as well as on the lifestyle of different social groups. Two of the three described scientific works are lead by IUAV University of Venice, the other one by SUPSI and performed with the contribution of IUAV scholars.
