In \u003ci\u003eEndangered City\u003c\/i\u003e, Austin Zeiderman focuses on this new political imperative to govern the present in anticipation of future harm. Through ethnographic fieldwork and archival research in Bogot , Colombia, he examines how state actors work to protect the lives of poor and vulnerable citizens from a range of threats, including environmental hazards and urban violence. By following both the governmental agencies charged with this mandate and the subjects governed by it, \u003ci\u003eEndangered City\u003c\/i\u003e reveals what happens when logics of endangerment shape the terrain of political engagement between citizens and the state. The self-built settlements of Bogot 's urban periphery prove a critical site from which to examine the rising effect of security and risk on contemporary cities and urban life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAustin Zeiderman is an anthropologist and Assistant Professor in the Department of Geography and Environment at the London School of Economics and Political Science.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 312\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7 x 8.9 x 6.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 27, 2016\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52618718642483,"sku":"9780822361626","price":63.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/SE9BNzVnMXhVenk4MkkzNnlZaVp1Zz09.webp?v=1761908237","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/endangered-city-the-politics-of-security-and-risk-in-bogota-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
