Be popular and good-looking—it's the key to a happy life. Luckily, with a bit of know-how and money, you, too, can have it all. At least, that's what teen pop culture was selling in surround sound at the turn of the millennium. From movies like Clueless to TV's Dawson's Creek to the music videos on MTV's Total Request Live and the catalogs of Abercrombie & Fitch, a consumer-minded ethos drove pop culture storytelling as millennials came of age in the late 1990s and early 2000s. But in the long shadow of the Great Recession, the upwardly mobile aspirations fostered by the era's popular culture and media seem to have been thwarted. Many millennials today lack the wealth their parents had at the same age, and the gaps between rich and poor rival those of the Gilded Age. 
 
 
 
The Abercrombie Age reconsiders teen popular culture from the turn of the twenty-first century, revealing how it told young people that life not only could but surely would get better. Far from frivolous or forgettable, the era's superficial, materialistic culture sold millennials unrealistic expectations of what life could offer, setting up a stark juxtaposition with the realities of today.

24 hours in the airport. 24 hours to betray my husband. 
An avalanche blocked the roads. Our ski trip has taken a bizarre, nasty turn. 
It started on the plane. I sat in the middle of a college hockey team traveling for a photoshoot. The air was thick with their deep, vibrating voices. A musky scent flowed into my lungs… 
I did something disgusting. I hope nobody noticed. 
Now we’ve arrived, and we’re trapped at the airport. The hockey guys keep looking at me. One of them wants me to buy them dinner. 
We have to spend the night here with them. I’m all jittery. My mind is filled with strange, uncomfortable thoughts. 
I shouldn’t do this. I need to stay strong. I need to resist.

East Jerusalem is more than a city; it is a battleground of maps, walls, and blueprints. In The Occupied City: How Israel Shapes Palestinian Life, readers are taken inside one of the world’s most contested urban landscapes, where every building permit, zoning law, and planning decision becomes a tool of power. 
Drawing on years of research and first-hand interviews with Palestinian residents, urban planners, and human rights experts, this book exposes how Israeli urban planning policies restrict Palestinian access to housing, fracture communities, and rewrite the very geography of Jerusalem. It reveals how control is exercised not only through military presence but through bureaucratic procedures, economic pressures, and cultural erasure—quiet mechanisms that determine who gets to build, who is forced to leave, and whose story is allowed to endure. 
At once rigorous and deeply human, The Occupied City gives voice to those living under the daily weight of planning systems designed to dispossess them. It uncovers the hidden architecture of occupation while also spotlighting acts of resilience, resistance, and visions for a more just future. 
Essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the Israeli–Palestinian conflict beyond headlines, this book demonstrates how urban planning—often regarded as technical or neutral—is, in fact, one of the most powerful weapons in the struggle over land, rights, and survival.
