It has now become one of the most exciting, if controversial approaches to the study of urban life today. Fifty generous selections, including contributions from John Friedmann, Michael Peter Smith, Saskia Sassen, Peter Taylor, Manuel Castells, and Anthony King, explore the interrelationships between cities and globalization. The seven sections with accompanying editorial introductions guide the student through the key theoretical, methodological, and empirical debates. "The global cities reader" explores the major foundations and intellectual influences of research on globalized urbanization. Classic and contemporary case studies of globalizing cities from Europe, North America and East Asia as well as from emerging world city regions of the global South are presented. The political and cultural dimensions of global city formation are examined in separate sections. The reader concludes by examining the refinement and critique of global cities research in the last fifteen years.

Résumé:
The City provides an accessible yet critical introduction to one of the key concepts in human geography. Always at the heart of discussions in social theory, the definition and specification of ‘the city’ nonetheless remains illusive. In this volume, Phil Hubbard locates the concept of ‘the city’ within current traditions of social thought, providing a basis for understanding its varying usages and meanings through a critical discussion of the contribution of key authors and thinkers. Written in a lively and accessible style, the individual chapters of The City offer a thematic overview of four dominant ways of approaching cities: as lived-in places, as imagined spaces, as networks of association and as technologies of flow. Drawing on a diverse range of literatures and case studies, the book spells out the importance of a geographical perspective on the city, suggesting that it is only by bringing these different ways of mapping the city together that we can begin to make sense of cities.

Résumé:
This book focuses on the spatial character of the city. A brief survey of the history of urban development leads to the proposal of a methodology for the design of urban space, concentrating on the relationship of four elements: patterns, narratives, monuments and spaces. The book addresses the current debate regarding urban regeneration through the proposal of a flexible framework for the analysis of urban context and the integration of new interventions to create sustainable cities. This work draws on the dual expertise of historical research and design experience. Although contemporary practice in urbanism has many sources of design guidelines it lacks a theory which provides a flexible approach to the complexities of most urban situations. This book aims to provide a theoretical framework which looks beyond the style obsession of urban makeovers to the fundamental elements of city-making. The book will feature historical analysis, theoretical coherence, contemporary case studies, good illustrations and a physical context for citizenship.

Résumé:
For millennia, the city stood out against the landscape, walled and compact. This concept of the city was long accepted as adequate for characterizing the urban experience. However, the nature of the city, both real and imagined, has always been more permeable than this model reveals. The essays in Urban Imaginaries respond to this condition by focusing on how social and physical space is conceived as both indefinite and singular. They emphasize the ways this space is shared and thus made into urban culture. Urban Imaginaries offers case studies on cities in Brazil, Israel, Turkey, Lebanon, and India, as well as in the United States and France, and in doing so blends social, cultural, and political approaches to better understand the contemporary urban experience. Alev Çinar is associate professor of political science and public administration at Bilkent University, Turkey and Thomas Bender is university professor of the humanities and history at New York University.

Résumé:
Over time, innovative domestic design has taken many forms. Different eras, shaped by specific needs, challenges and opportunities, have given their own interpretation of this most essential of buildings - the home - defining what it could look like, what it might signify and how it should function. Today, new challenges have emerged within this dynamic landscape, including climate change, the pursuit of diversity and equity across society and the role of emerging technologies, such as AI. The needs of today - and therefore the house of tomorrow - require human-centric and context-responsive solutions, grounded in resilience and responsibility, without compromising on visual appeal and aspiration. ''Future Homes'' showcases diverse, cutting-edge case studies of homes that both address issues of our times and look stunning while doing it. As well as an inspirational showcase of architecture that leads the way into the future, the designs offer valuable insights into how we can find balance and refuge in a rapidly changing and volatile world.

Based on over 15 years of research at the Architectural Association’s Interprofessional Studio, the book introduces the idea of “/People” as a new way to describe creatives who move between architecture, design, performance, and other fields. It presents case studies, methods, and practical examples that show how combining skills from different areas can lead to new ideas and professional opportunities. Instead of focusing on one discipline,?/People?looks at how knowledge from different fields can be combined to create new ways of working. It examines how objects take on meaning through use, how people collaborate effectively, and how creative work connects to broader social and professional contexts. The book provides insights for those interested in expanding their practice, including professionals, educators, and students, offering tools to navigate a world where creativity is increasingly shaped by different influences and perspectives.

Résumé:
''American Documentary Film'' focuses on the extensive range and history of nonfiction filmmaking in the USA, investigating how documentary films have reflected varied and often competing visions of US culture, history, and national identity. Documentary has long been a negotiated and changing concept: a site of social, intellectual, and aesthetic investment keenly fought over and debated. In this sense documentary films also create a kind of public space: they act as sites for community-building, public expression, and social innovation; they contribute to the public sphere. This book distills key aspects of the documentary idea while tracing the form's development over time, focusing on the ways documentaries have given shape to the experience and comprehension of a national imaginary. Combining comprehensive overviews with in-depth case studies, Geiger examines the impact of pre- and early cinema, travelogues, the avant-garde, 1930s social documentary, Second World War propaganda, direct cinema, postmodernism and the crisis of ‘truth’, and the new media age.

Résumé:
"Perspecta 34" explores the temporary relationship between architecture and the larger contexts within which social crisis and cultural transformation take place. The issue examines many questions associated with modernism, including the limits of utopian urban planning, and considers alternatives to space as the dominant organizing concept for architecture. It views the contemporary as a fluid practice in which games, intuition, collective imagination, and style emerge alongside conventional architectural approaches as ways to comprehend and shape the temporary landscape. Case studies--on the Olympics, Belgrade protests, refugee housing--ask how temporary events intensify the possibilities and limitations for architectural innovation. Perspecta 34 also explores the built environment as an ecology of change consisting of dynamic economies, movements of people, and overlapping systems of authority. The issue includes a portfolio of twentieth-century temporary projects that reflect changing ideas of fabrication, the deployment of the architectural object, and architecture's relationship to social and cultural practices.
