Cartography as an instrument for the analysis of urbanisation processes The
speed, scale and scope of urbanisation have increased dramatically in
recent decades, transforming fundamentally the character of urban
territories. To decipher the rapidly transforming land-scapes across the
planet, we need a radical change of perspective. This book
presents an expanded vocabulary of urbanisation through a comparison of
Tokyo, Hong Kong – Shenzhen – Dongguan, Kolkata, Istanbul, Lagos, Paris,
Mexico City, and Los Angeles. Based on a novel cartography, and
on detailed ethnographic and historical explorations, it systematically
analyses the diversity of responses to urgent contemporary urban
challenges. This results in a series of new concepts that allow us to
assess the practical consequences of different urban strategies in
everyday life.
Essential book on urbanism
New evaluation models for urbanisation processes
Comprehensive analyses and illustrations of the urban patterns of international metropolises
Comparison of urbanisation processes in eight metropolises around the world
