Peripherization: the making of spatial dependencies and social injustice

The concept of “peripherisation“ refers to the emergence of social and spatial disparities apt to cut off certain regions or partial spaces from positive development stimuli. However, the emergence of new peripheries and forms of inequality is not a result of “natural“ development but of social practice. Discussing examples from Germany and other countries, the volume investigates peripherisation as a form of socially produced spatial dependence and inequality.
