The Right to the City: Social Justice and the Fight for Public Space by Don Mitchell is a work of critical urban geography that examines how public space in United States cities becomes a site of political conflict, social exclusion, and democratic possibility. First published by Guilford Press in 2003, with later editions including a postscript on more recent developments, the book develops Henri Lefebvre's idea of the right to the city through historically grounded case studies. Mitchell focuses on streets, parks, plazas, and other urban spaces where rights to assembly, protest, visibility, and residence are negotiated and often restricted. Rather than treating public space as simply open and accessible, he shows how law, policing, property interests, and planning practices shape who can appear in public and under what conditions. The book is both theoretical and empirical, written for readers interested in urban studies, geography, social justice, political dissent, and the governance of city life.
