This four-volume Major Work brings together key literatures which
offer perspectives on the emergence of the modern city and its
connection with the project of modernity. The volumes explore the
historical rise of the modern city and theorisations of the
dynamics of city-based economic development; the nature of
modernist city planning, governance and design; the role that the
modern city has played in the rise of societies based on mass
consumption; and the intertwining of expression, art and experience
in the modern city. This collection has been built on the premise
that cities need to be understood as interdisciplinary objects of
study, and the contents have been drawn from a wide variety of
sources with roots in areas such as urban anthropology, development
studies, economics, history, geography and sociology. The result is
a unique and valuable resource for scholars based in a variety of
social science and humanities disciplines. Volume I: The Modern
city: Evolution and Development Volume II: Planning, Governing and
Designing the Modern City Volume III: Consumption, Politics and
Popular culture in the Modern City Volume IV: Modernity,
Representation and the City
