| Description: |
Takes the theme park as a type of privately-owned, public-access space where such conditions are brought to the extreme. This book uses the theme park as a 'laboratory environment' to identify, dissect and describe the properties of new, hybrid forms of public spaces emerging in urban environments worldwide. |
| Synopsis: |
Placing theme parks from the United States, Europe and Asia in a comparative, multidisciplinary framework, this fascinating book argues that these fantasy environments are an extreme example of the totalization of public space. By illuminating the relationship between theme parks and public space, this book offers critical insights into the ethos of total landscape. Illuminating the relationship between theme parks and public space, the book offers an insight into the ethos, design and expectations of public space in the twenty-first century. |
