Fundamental Trends in City Development

Viac o knihe

Focusing on the concept of externity, this book examines the evolving nature of urban spaces through three key trends: discomposed, generic, and segregated. It highlights the diminishing role of cities as centers for social interaction and communication, exploring various interpretative categories such as intermediate spaces and counterspaces. The work raises critical questions about the true essence of the public sphere and how contemporary city projects can redefine public spaces to foster community engagement and interaction.
