| Summary: | This article analyses distinct features of noise in urban spaces through the perspectives of green criminology and cultural criminology and highlights the sensory convergence between noise, odour, and artificial light. It contributes to the development of an emerging “visual, olfactory, sensory criminology” and to the study of uses, and aesthetic meanings, of urban and cultural life. Drawing on the idea of an ‘eco-city’, it proposes a pattern for urban life that offers a more peaceful and less conflictual environmental lifestyle. To this end, we adopt methods that have been provided by interpretive sociology, as elaborated within green cultural criminology, and suggest practices of conflict resolution as alternative measures of response to crime and the usual punishments. The study focuses on cities from the Spanish and wider European context and includes several international archetypes. Working through this itinerary leads us to emphasize the importance of designing a ‘criminological mapping’ of these phenomena combined with restorative justice methodology to establish connections between sensory space and soundscape, and crime or environmental social damage. |
