Summary:
Featuring 40 essays by U.S. and European historians, designers, cultural critics, geographers and social scientists, illustrated with over 250 color images in extensive visual "gazetteers" — including specially-commissioned portfolios by artists and designers — "Else/where mapping" investigates : how new technologies of navigation and location are emerging to chart "virtual" terrain such as social networks and online conversations; how these new mapping strategies borrow and reinvent metaphors adapted from the cartography of physical terrain, considered at various scales — urban, regional, continental, global ; how new modes of representation of spatial data are evolving to explore the potential for collective "bottom-up" (rather than "top-down") mapping ; how cities, communities and social networks are being re-envisioned, as artists and designers use technologies such as GPS, GIS and digital interface design to devise alternative mappings of social and spatial relationships. Authors : Janet Abrams, Ole Bouman, Andrea Codrington, Denis Cosgrove, Steve Dietz, Paul Elliman, Yuri Engelhardt, Peter Hall, Brian Holmes, J.J.

Summary:
Samuel Zipp sheds new light on the rise and fall of New York's urban renewal in the decades after World War II. Focusing on four iconic "Manhattan projects"--the United Nations building, Stuyvesant Town, Lincoln Center, and the great swaths of public housing in East Harlem--Zipp unearths a host of forgotten stories and characters that flesh out the conventional history of urban renewal. He shows how boosters hoped to make Manhattan the capital of modernity and a symbol of American power, but even as the builders executed their plans, a chorus of critics revealed the dark side of those Cold War visions, attacking urban renewal for perpetuating deindustrialization, racial segregation, and class division; for uprooting thousands, and for implanting a new, alienating cityscape. Cold War-era urban renewal was not merely a failed planning ideal, Zipp concludes, but also a crucial phase in the transformation of New York into both a world city and one mired in urban crisis.
