TY - JOUR PY - 2011// TI - Civil Cities and Urban Governance: Regulating Disorder for the Vancouver Winter Olympics JO - Urban studies A1 - Boyle, Philip A1 - Haggerty, Kevin D. SP - 3185 EP - 3201 VL - 48 IS - 15 N2 - The paper analyses Project Civil City (PCC), a major initiative launched by the City of Vancouver in 2006 that aimed for significant reductions in street disorder in time for the 2010 Winter Olympics. This initiative is considered in light of the links between urban regeneration/revitalisation efforts and security and surveillance practices. PCC stands as a telling moment in the on-going and highly politicised efforts to regulate urban disorder in this 'world city'. The paper concentrates on three distinct initiatives aimed at ordering different components of urban disorder in Vancouver.
