"[Defensible Space was] based on a fear of crime. And it is this criminalisation of various behaviours, and manipulation of the pervasive sense of fear, both from being a victim of crime and from being accused of committing one, which is one of the most powerful tools to discipline the inhabitants of modern cities"
Krzysztof Nawratek, Holes in the Whole, (Alresford : Zero Books, 2012) p.75
