Description

Explore the changing landscape of urban studies with Writing the Global City by Anthony King. Published by Routledge, this book examines how the concept of the city has shifted over the last thirty years. It focuses on how globalization, postcolonialism, and new ideas of modernity have moved the understanding of urban spaces beyond the traditional limits of the state and nation. This collection brings together key essays that address the debates surrounding the world or global city. Anthony King looks at the silences and assumptions in current urban discussions, offering a perspective that includes historical and cultural contexts often left out of the conversation. It is an essential resource for those studying how the city is re-positioned within a larger global framework.
