POLITICS
URBAN POLITICS
Urban politics is politics in and about
cities. This term refers to the diverse
political structure that occurs in urban
areas where there is diversity in both
race and socioeconomic status.
Urban political economy Urban political economy
holds a very important theoretical and practical application to
the political and economic functions within society.  “Urban
political economy refers to the way that people occupy and use
space”

Urban political ecology seeks to understand the ways

in which our urban environments are produced and reproduced, focusing
on questions such as who decides, how they decide, who benefits and who
loses. It is an approach that aims to uncover how political, social and
economic relations structure access to the urban environment, that is, to
our natural-social surroundings.
