The work of Henri Lefebvre - the only major French intellectual of
the post-war period to give extensive consideration to the city and
urban life - received considerable attention among both academics
and practitioners of the built environment following the
publication in English of "The Production of Space." This new
collection brings together, for the first time in English,
Lefebvre's reflections on the city and urban life written over a
span of some twenty years.
The selection of writings is contextualized by an introduction -
itself a significant contribution to the interpretation of Henri
Lefebvre's work - which places the material within the context of
Lefebvre's intellectual and political life and times and raises
pertinent issues as to their relevance for contemporary debates
over such questions as the nature of urban reality, the production
of space and modernity.
"Writings on Cities" is of particular relevance to architects,
planners, geographers, and those interested in the philosophical
and political understanding of contemporary life.
