| 要約: | This anthology of writings on urban studies and planning for students, practitioners, and anyone fascinated by cities contains essays by Ebenezer Howard, Robert Park, Lewis Mumford, Raymond Unwin, Peter Hall and Mike Davis. The text includes an interdisciplinary introduction to how cities have evolved, what they are like, and where they may be headed. Topics covered include urban geography, economics, sociology, politics, the humanities, cultural studies and urban design and planning. There is an emphasis on theory and practice, competing ideological perspectives on the city and major current debates. The book pays particular attention to issues of race and gender, how global economic restructuring is affecting cities, the impact of technology on cities, and post-modern critiques of urban form. |
