Coles The Gated City: Planning Practice and the Challenges of Urban Fragmentation in Mexico at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC

The book tells the story of the proliferation of gated communities and the privatisation of public life and public space in Mexico over the last three decades. Drawing on research from Lomas de Angelópolis in Puebla, one of the largest gated communities in the world, Emma Regina Morales explores why such fortified spaces have proved popular with middle-class households.
Weaving together the multiple influences of housing policy, predatory financial markets, and an increased fear of crime, the book sets out how policy makers and planners can improve decision-making and provide non-gated solutions to urban anxiety.
