In Spaces of Culture an international group of scholars examines
the implications of questions such as: What is culture? What is the
relationship between social structure and culture in a globalized
and networked world? Do critical perspectives still apply, or does
the speed and complexity of cultural production demand new forms of
analysis? They explore the key themes in social theory: the nation
state; the city; modernity and reflexivity; post-Fordism and the
spatial logic of the informational city. The contributors go on to
analyze the public sphere, questioning the reductive representation
of technology as a form of instrumentality, and demonstrating how
new technologies can offer new spaces of culture. This analysis of
public space is essential to an understanding of issues like global
citizenship and multicultural human rights.
