Book Synopsis Beach Politics by : Setha Low
Book excerpt: "What do confrontations over beach use--the various restrictions, justifications, and access conflicts-tell us about contemporary politics? They remind us that shorelines-especially their most coveted parts, sandy beaches-are a reflection-and refraction-of contemporary political and economic struggles. In the most general terms, this book focuses on these struggles-especially as they are grounded in a particular time and space-that is, beach "politics.""--
