I'm PhD in English Literature, using this list for the first time.  I'm writing an article on the 
psychogeographer, poet and novelist, Iain Sinclair, and I'm looking for Human Geography 
and Urban Geography resources on issues regarding Hackney, the City of London, and the 
new site for the 2012 London Olympics.  I'm registering with UCLs Urban Pages and I am 
aware of this year's UCL Urban artscapes conference, and I am also contacting Leicester's 
Urban History group, but I thought this forum could help me locate any recent publications 
on spatial theory and London Olympics; public-private space Hackney/Olympic zone; 21st 
century psychogeography of London (particularly this area).

Any further help (i.e readers, best first steps) on the following would also be gratefully 
received: how the form of state intervention changes the conceptualization of space (and 
how these change through the decades); security policies; how urban policy represents 
space/ is a space making practice; voices of inhabitants as resistance to government/statist 
geography.
