Abstract
The book Moving Cities: Contested Views on Urban Life is a publication promoted by the European Sociological Association Research Network 37 – Urban Sociology. As members of the coordination and board of this research network, our aim is to establish bridges throughout Europe and beyond, by contributing to the dissemination of relevant research in our field. These bridges link researchers interested in participating in the European scientific debate on cities and urban life, but they are also bridges between cities, favouring contexts of discussion and further comparative analysis between several urban settings and social configurations.
