March 25th at 6:30p.m!

Join us at NXL for the launch of "Neoliberalism and Urban Regeneration" fresh insights on SE London and community.
Book Launch - Neoliberalism and Urban Regeneration

London is a major global city which attracts a massive influx of capital while concentrating power and wealth in the hands of the few. Meanwhile, many communities suffer housing shortages, poverty and dispossession. How can its diverse communities fight back against exclusionary regeneration projects?

This accessible book tells the story of the Voice4Deptford campaign in Southeast London, which has taken radical democratic and creative action to resist the destructive influence of neoliberalism at the community level. It shows how top-down change is challenged and, together with case studies from across London, offers powerful ways forward for other urban communities globally.

Door open 6.30pm start time 7pm. Finish time will be 8:30 pm followed by book signing and light refreshments.
