Jane Jacobs blev känd över världen för sin bok The Death and Life of Great American Cities. Genom boken och sin aktivism på gatunivå i 1960-talets New York blev hon en centralfigur inom stadsplaneringsfrågor och hennes insatser har efter genombrottet ständigt tolkats och debatterats.

Den tidiga berömmelsen verkar emellertid ha överskuggat hennes författarskap trots att det sträcker sig fram till 2004. Jacobs breddade sitt tänkande till att omfatta samhällsbyggandet i dess vidaste mening från ekonomi och ekologi till politik och samhällsfilosofi. Hennes böcker tvingar läsaren att reflektera och vidga sitt synfält. Jacobs är mer aktuell än någonsin i den ovissa värld vi möter idag.

I Samhällsbyggandet som mysterium tar tretton initierade skribenter upp unika aspekter av de brännande frågor hon väcker vad är det som i grunden gör ett samhälle hållbart? Tillsammans tecknar de medverkande för första gången på svenska en nära nog heltäckande bild av Jacobs verksamhet från 1930-tal till 2000-tal, och sätter in hennes arbeten i nutida kontexter. Boken utgör samtidigt en introduktion och guide till Jacobs författarskap som kan inspirera till vidare läsning och upptäckter.

This handbook critically examines spaces of mental health and wellbeing across multiple, often intersecting, domains from green and blue spaces to lived and embodied spaces, creative spaces, work and home spaces, and institutional and post-institutional spaces.The Routledge Handbook on Spaces of Mental Health and Wellbeing features 45 chapters from leading international scholars who collectively interrogate the spatial dimensions of mental health and wellbeing from conceptual and experiential viewpoints. The ways in which these theoretical developments prompt a re-thinking of mental health and wellbeing as concepts is also discussed before presenting some highlights from the handbook’s five main sections – (1) green and blue spaces, (2) lived and embodied spaces, (3) creative spaces, (4) work and home spaces, and (5) institutional and post-institutional spaces. The key benefits of this book include a great appreciation of the complex networks and assemblages of mental health and wellbeing, the value of a geographical/spatial approach to thinking about mental health, and the vast array of spaces and places that are implicated in human and posthuman notions of wellbeing.This book will be of interest to students and scholars across the social sciences and the humanities as well as researchers and practitioners in the fields of psychology, psychiatry, social work, nursing, health geography, social and cultural geography, anthropology, mental health social studies, cultural theory, and architecture.Chapter 20 of this book is freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons [Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND)] 4.0 license.

Jane Jacobs (1916 2006) gained international recognition with her groundbreaking book The Death and Life of Great American Cities and became a prominent political activist. But despite early worldwide attention, she remains unknown to many. Jacobs written work has unusual breadth to it, with eight books ranging from economics and ecology to politics and social philosophy, taking on the whole mystery of society.

In this anthology, 13 writers consider unique aspects of Jacobs, reassessing her work in the context of our contemporary reality.
