Description

Desert Paradises: Surveying the Landscapes of Dubai's Urban Model provides a deep look into how designed environments shape a city's global identity. Part of the Routledge Research in Landscape and Environmental Design series, this book uses Dubai as a primary case study to examine the connection between landscape design and socio-political structures. Author Bolleter examines how the rulers of Dubai use the image of greening the desert to build political legitimacy. The text investigates the ways in which these constructed landscapes serve as tools for projecting a specific international image. Beyond political analysis, the book evaluates Dubai's urban design against established international standards, including the principles set by the United Nations and the International Federation of Landscape Architects. This research offers a critical perspective on how urban models are built and perceived on a global stage. It is an essential resource for those studying architecture, landscape design, and the environmental impact of rapid urban development in desert climates.
