Résumé:
Lafranchis’ alter ego, the Urbanomad, takes his navigator and sets off on his journeys once again. He lands in Taiwan, South Africa and the United States. As in the first volume (Urbanomad, 3-211-20347-8), he finds entirely different conditions at each of the places he visits. These are the result of events and factors such as the earthquake in Chi Chi, Taiwan in 1999, sickness and poverty in Siyathemba, South Africa or technological evolution in Chicago and New York. The book accompanies the "Urbanomad" throughout his continuing flight and documents his projects the same way they were documented in the first volume.

Résumé:
Appropriated Landscapes explores the landscapes of Southern Africa, through photography and video from artists including David Goldblatt, Santu Mofokeng, Jo Ractliffe, Penny Siopis and Guy Tillim. By examining the effects of war, migration, colonisation, industrialisation and ideology on South Africa, Namibia, Angola and Mozambique, this book reveals the varied histories of these regions and their peoples. Landscape - both in Southern Africa and beyond - shows itself as ultimately a construct of the mind, composed as much from strata of memory as from layers of rock.

Résumé:
This book is a pioneering effort to insert South Africa's largest city into urban theory on its own terms. The volume's essays include an investigation of representation and self-stylization in the city, an ethnographic examination of friction zones and practices of social reproduction in inner-city Johannesburg, and a discussion of the economic and literary relationship between Johannesburg and Maputo, Mozambique's capital. One contributor considers how Johannesburg's cosmopolitan sociability enabled the anti-colonial projects of Ghandi and Mandela. Journalists, artists, architects, writers, and scholars bring contemporary Johannesburg to life in ten short pieces including reflections on music and megamalls, nightlife, living as foreigners in the city, and built spaces.
