Synopsis: |
This book explores the different types of human agency - individual and collective, official, private and institutional - that have shaped the production of urban form over the last several centuries. The collection of essays focuses on the social processes behind the patterns of built form that have been traditionally studied and the progressive interactions between the two. The chapters are grouped into four broad historical periods - pre-modern, early modern, industrial era and late- and postmodern to give historical coherence to the evolving mix of societal forms of agency that have at various times combined to shape the urban built environment. |
