Summary
"Examining spaces where leisure activities are offered on sites of industrial waste, this book argues that such heterotopic spaces may foster a remaking of public environmental responsibility and ecological care that is not based on a utopian vision of environmental purity but an attempt to exist responsibly in the continued presence of waste"-- Provided by publisher.
