Andrea Pavoni is post-doctoral fellow at DINAMIA'CET, Centre for Socioeconomic and Territorial Studies, at the University Institute of Lisbon, Portugal. He completed his PhD at the University of Westminster, London, in 2013. He is a fellow at the Westminster Law and Theory Lab, co-editor of the Law and the Senses Series (University of Westminster Press), and associate editor at the journal Lo Squaderno, Explorations in Space and Society.

This book explores the relation between space, law and control in the contemporary city - and particularly in relation to urban 'mega events' - through a combined geographical and normative analysis. This book will be of considerable interest to those working in critical urban geography, critical legal studies and surveillance and control studies.
