重新思考公共空间

Rethinking Urban and Regional Studies series

Ali Madanipour, Professor of Urban Design, School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape, Newcastle University, UK

在critical perspective, this book rethinks public space in the context of contemporary global health and economic crises, as well as technological, political and cultural change. In order to do so, Ali Madanipour brings together two often unrelated discourses: public space and social inclusion, interrogating the potential for public spaces to contribute to inclusive social practices.

‘The COVID-19 pandemic, social movements and communications technologies have reshaped the nature of public urban space and public life. In this extraordinarily erudite examination, Professor Madanipour draws together the observations of philosophers and researchers on the meaning of public space and of accessibility to it. He does so in a manner highly informative for anyone interested in civic life, present and future.’
