Description

Asian Alterity provides a deep interdisciplinary theoretical analysis that challenges mainstream Eurocentric values. This book addresses the need for an alternate perspective to understand the vast diversity of Asian cultural differences across various development stages. As urban expansion accelerates and traditional lifestyles face disruptive changes, this text offers a necessary framework for understanding these shifts. The content is divided into two distinct parts. The first part establishes the theoretical need for a new lens to view Asian cultural development. The second part provides practical application through nine detailed case studies of major Asian urban cities. These studies are written by established academic writers and urban theorists, offering expert insights into the complex realities of modern Asian urbanism and architecture.
