This book draws together classic and contemporary texts on the
"Horizontal Metropolis" concept. Taking an interdisciplinary
approach, it explores various theoretical, methodological and
political implications of the Horizontal Metropolis hypothesis.
Assembling a series of textual and cartographic interventions, this
book explores those that supersede inherited spatial ontologies
(urban/rural, town/country, city/non-city, society/nature). It
investigates the emergence of a new type of extended urbanity
across regions, territories and continents up to the global scale
through the reconstruction of a fundamental but neglected
tradition. This book responds to the radical nature of the changes
underway today, calling for a rethinking of the Western Metropolis
idea and form along with the emergence of new urban paradigms. The
Horizontal Metropolis concept represents an ambitious attempt to
offer new instruction to take on this challenge at the global
scale. The book is intended for a wide audience interested in the
emergence and development of new approaches in urbanism,
architecture, cultural theory, urban and design education,
landscape urbanism and geography.
