Summary:
Located at the crossroads of struggles between democratic, communist, and fascist visions of the modern world, twentieth-century Prague witnessed revolutions and invasions, national liberation and ethnic cleansing, the Holocaust, show trials, and snuffed-out dreams of "socialism with a human face." Yet between the wars, when Prague was the capital of Europe's most easterly parliamentary democracy, it was also a hotbed of artistic and architectural modernism, and a center of surrealism second only to Paris. Focusing on these years, Sayer explores Prague's spectacular modern buildings, monuments, paintings, books, films, operas, exhibitions, and much more.

Summary:
Parce qu’il s’est immiscé dans les moindres recoins des sociétés contemporaines, le capitalisme a bouleversé le visage des villes telles que nous les connaissons. La concentration de la population mondiale dans des agglomérations désormais gérées comme des entreprises fait de la construction de l’espace urbain un observatoire privilégié tant des logiques managériales et financières que de la production des inégalités sociales et spatiales. De l’adaptation au changement climatique à la Smart City en passant par le zonage logistique et l’économie de plateformes, cette encyclopédie critique propose une cartographie inédite de la ville contemporaine, qui invite concevoir l’espace comme un rapport social et donc comme un lieu de lutte. Présentant de riches enquêtes empiriques menées aux quatre coins du globe, ses entrées exposent de manière thématique les principaux enjeux auxquels sont confrontées des populations marginalisées à la fois d’un point de vue matériel et dans les processus de décisions qui affectent leur vie quotidienne. La démarche suivie, qui associe à ce réquisitoire implacable l’esquisse systématique de voies alternatives, argumente de manière actuelle et accessible en faveur de la défense renouvelée d’un « droit à la ville ».
