In this collection, Esther Raizen explores the significance and value of Hebrew poetry written in response to the wars in which Israel was involved during the last fifty years. The anthology includes the works of many poets, some as well known as Nathan Altherman and Yehudah Amichai and others less known. The poems, presented in both English and Hebrew, depict war as viewed by the soldier, as reflected upon by civilians, and as a force giving rise to the creation of poetry. Raizen explores in an introductory essay the issue of whether poetry written with a defined political message and in the context of certain historical events can function adequately on the aesthetic level. She also tracks the changes in the characteristics of Israeli war poetry from 1948 to 1991, beginning with the glorified patriotism expected in the 1930s-1940s and progressing to the critical ideas in the later years, during which poetry is characterized by understatement and cynicism.

How does the city’s urban fabric relate to crime and fear, and how is that fabric affected by crime and fear? Does the urban environment affect one’s decision to commit an offence? Is there a victimisation-related inequality within cities? How do crime and fear interrelate to inequality and segregation in cities of developing countries? What are the challenges to planning cities which are both safe and sustainable? This book searches for answers to these questions in the nature of the city, particularly in the social interactions that take place in urban space distinctively guided by different land uses and people’s activities. In other words, the book deals with the urban fabric of crime and fear. The novelty of the book is to place safety and security issues on the urban scale by (1) showing links between urban structure, and crime and fear, (2) illustrating how different disciplines deal with urban vulnerability to (and fear of) crime (3) including concrete examples of issues and challenges found in European and North American cities, and, without being too extensive, also in cities of the Global South.

This book describes the impact of factors ranging from noisy neighbors, accumulating trash, and vagrancy, to public gambling, prostitution, and drug sales, on neighborhood stability and argues that these types of disorder contribute significantly to urban decline. The discussion uses data from surveys conducted between 1977 and 1983 in Atlanta, Chicago, Houston, Newark, N.J., Philadelphia, and San Francisco to explore the links among disorder, fear, and crime, noting that many aspects of disorder cannot be effectively policed because they are not covered by criminal laws. Nevertheless, a close connection exists between residents' perceptions of disorder and the spiral of community decline. In addition, acceptance of rising levels of disorder undermines the social ties on which neighborhood stability depends. As a result, criminals start to exploit the declining social control, and the level of safety and order continue to decline. The discussion concludes that reversing the trend is possible, and suggests ways in which urban authorities and community residents could work together to confront disorder effectively.
