High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Urbicide is a term which literally translates as "violence against the city." The term has beein coined by Marshall Berman, writing about the destruction of his native Bronx. The term has come into being in an age of rapid globalization and urbanization. This rapid globalization trend has led to the focus of violence and destruction in the context of the city rather than its surroundings. Especially after the events at Sarajevo, recognition has begun to be given to the cases of violence specifically directed to the destruction of an urban area. The exact constraints and definition of this "term continues to be debated because the limits of this emerging concept make it extremely difficult to categories events under the heading of urbicide. The question of intent also arises when discussing the limits of urbicide. This is just one example of the many constraints that the term urbicide presents. The ability of term to cross a variety of fields such as international politics, anthropology, and sociology makes it particularly difficult to set a finite definition of urbicide which satisfies all these fields.
