It discusses the historical development of urban polities and the role of coercion in shaping urban populations. Key collective actors and their interactions with various levels of government are analyzed, alongside how urban inhabitants shape political landscapes through social identities and communication networks. The conclusion advocates for a comprehensive approach to urban politics, reflecting the global shifts resulting from increasing urbanization.
