Editorial Reviews
Review
""This outstanding volume by Anthony King is, empirically rich and sends deep theoretical tremors as well; an invaluable read."."
-Jan Nederveen Pieterse, author of Globaliztion or Empire, Routledge 2004, October 2004



Book Description

The first book to combine global and postcolonial theoretical approaches to the built environment, and to illustrate these with concrete examples, Spaces of Global Cultures argues for a more historical, differentiated and interdisciplinary understanding of globalization: one that places material space and the built environment at the center and calls for innovative concepts to address new contemporary conditions.
