Abstract

America's cities are being rapidly transformed by a sinister and homogenous design. A new Kind of urbanism--manipulative, dispersed, and hostile to traditional public space--is emerging both at the heart and at the edge of town in megamalls, corporate enclaves, gentrified zones, and psuedo-historic marketplaces. If anything can be described as a paradigm for these places, it's the theme park, an apparently benign environment in which all is structured to achieve maximum control and in which the idea of authentic interaction among citizens has been thoroughly purged. In this bold collection, eight of our leading urbanists and architectural critics explore the emblematic sites of this new cityscape--from Silicon Valley to Epcot Center, South Street Seaport to downtown Los Angeles--and reveal their disturbing implications for American public life.

Abstract

This book exposes the consistency and coherence of the seemingly unrelated episodes of Manhattan's urbanism: it is an interpretation that establishes New York as the product of an unformulated movement, Manhattanism, whose true programme was so outrageous that in order for it to be realized it could never be openly declared. Delirious New York is the retroactive manifesto of Manhattan's architectural enterprise: it untangles theories, tactics and dissimulations to establish the desires of Manhattan's collective unconscious as realities in the Grid.

Abstract

The papers in this volume, from a workshop in Dordrecht, The Netherlands, in November 1993, aim at exchanging current knowledge, identifying possibilities for research collaboration, encouraging research and planning in urban ecology and contributing to the development of guidelines for the planning of sustainable human settlements. The workshop focused on three themes: design of differential sustainable neighbourhoods, spatial strategies for sustainable flow management and spatial strategies towards solving supra-national sustainability.
