Moving beyond both canonical and empirical portrayals, the book\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003eapproaches the urban through a genealogy of circulation - a concept central to Western political thought and its modes of spatial planning. Locating architectural knowledge in a wider network of political history, legal theory, geography, sociology and critical theory, and drawing on maritime, territorial and colonial histories, Adams contends that the urban arose in the nineteenth century as an anonymous, parallel project of the emergent liberal nation state. More than a reflection of this state form or the product of the capitalist relations it fostered, the urban is instead a primary\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003einstrument for both: at once means and ends.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCombining analytical precision with interdisciplinary insights, this book offers an astonishing new set of propositions for revisiting a familiar, yet increasingly urgent, topic. It is a vital resource for all students and scholars of architecture and urban studies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book is part of the \u003cem\u003eSociety and Space \u003c\/em\u003eseries, which explores the fascinating relationship between the spatial and the social. These stimulating, provocative books draw on a range of theories to examine key cultural and political issues of our times, including technology, globalisation and migration. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ross Exo Adams\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sage Publications Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/22\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.40w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781473963306","brand":"Sage Publications Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45125172265075,"sku":"9781473963306","price":236.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_d983d5d6-11ab-4f64-bdc0-f06eab5226fc.jpg?v=1782231549","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/circulation-and-urbanization-9781473963306","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
