Description

Explore the changing relationship between night and society in contemporary urban environments with The Nocturnal City. Part of the Routledge Research in Culture, Space and Identity series, this book examines how the era of globalization has transformed the way humans and animals interact with the dark. As economic activity from the daytime city expands into the night, traditional uses of nighttime are changing. This work investigates how the time once reserved for sleep, play, or escaping oppression is now under threat by the constant movement of the globalized economy. While theories of planetary urbanization have focused on how urban forms spread spatially, this book looks at the temporal expansion of the city. This text provides a deep look into how the social world is reshaped by the loss of night. It is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of urban planning, social identity, and the temporal shifts in modern civilization. Understand how the expansion of the workday into the night affects the very fabric of our cities.
