Combining social science approaches with explorations in film, media, and the performing arts, the volume challenges conventional, stereotypical, and reductive definitions and conceptions of urban violence by placing local marginalized communities at the forefront of a multilogue and embracing inclusive, innovative, and unconventional analytical and practical approaches and frameworks. A diverse cohort of contributors offers policy-focused counternarratives and potential solutions to systematized forms of overt, covert, and hybrid forms of urban violence(s).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAshvin Devasundaram\u003c\/b\u003e is a reader in global cinemas at Queen Mary University of London. \u003cb\u003eStamatis Zografos\u003c\/b\u003e is an architect and associate professor in architecture at The Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London. \u003cb\u003eMárcio J.
