Urban Transformations is a theoretical and empirical account of the
changing nature of urbanization in Germany. Where city planners and
municipal administrations had emphasized free markets, the rule of
law, and trade in 1871, by the 1930s they favoured a quite
different integrative, corporate, and productivist vision. Urban
Transformations explores the broad-based social transformation
connected to these changes and the contemporaneous shifts in the
cultural and social history of global capitalism. Dynamic features
of modern capitalist life, such as rapid industrialization,
working-class radicalism, dramatic population growth, poor quality
housing, and regional administrative incoherence significantly
influenced the Greater Berlin region. Examining materials on city
planning, municipal administration, architecture, political
economy, and jurisprudence, Urban Transformations recasts the
history of German and European urbanization, as well as that of
modernist architecture and city planning.
