Urbanormativity: Reality, Representation, and Everyday Life

Gregory M. Fulkerson,Alexander R. Thomas

This book investigates urbanormativity-a concept that privileges urban normalcy and desirability over rural deviance and undesirability. The reality section outlines its foundations-urbanization, urban-rural systems, and urban dependency. The representation section explores urbanormative culture by considering cultural capital, media, and identity. The last section, everyday life, examines urban-rural disparities in law and politics and in life within different communities. It concludes by calling for a rural justice approach that will revalue the rural.
