Resumo: | This review is of the Routledge Handbook of Graffiti and Street Art, included in the Routledge International Handbooks collection. Published in 2016, this book will be of great interest to Graffiti and Street Art scholars. This publication is of significant importance in a context were there is so much to share and understand about the phenomena of graffiti and street art. The shared common goals of the Routledge Handbook of Graffiti and Street Art with the Urbancreativity research network (which promotes associated conferences and the Street Art & Urban Creativity Scientific Journal – where I’m personally dedicated as a member of the Executive Committee and as Editor) made me propose the present review. The structure of the review mirrors the structure of the book, with forewords, introductions, and four thematic parts. It also includes a prelude where the quantitative facts are presented – the number of chapters, authors, scientific fields represented, nationalities of the authors and case studies, among others. This review regards the book as an element integrated in a culture of research that is being formed. It analyzes the significance that it represents to the Graffiti and Street Art fields of study, but also how it can influence authorial or management practices. There are some omissions to this review regarding the relation of the book within the publishing realm as, for example, I do not analyze how it is related with other titles of the same collection. As a general review that did not want to be partial, there were some concessions to be made – more emphasis is given to the introduction of the book and for each section, and to the overall considerations, balances, coverage, and generic ingredients than to any specific chapter or contributor, topic or approach, this way avoiding individual exclusions or emphases. The approach was developed in the most analytic way possible, whilst trying to exclude as many personal influences as possible in the review process (as it should be). Some consultations with other researchers were also made as a way of gaining other perspectives and to refresh my individual interpretations. This review also tries to provide the necessary information for researchers that want or need to know more about the content, generic approach and character of this publication.
