| Abstract | "Is it truly the "end" of public space? This handbook presents evidence that the answer is "no". In cities in different parts of the world people still use public space to pursue activities of their choice. The book is divided into seven sections. The first section presents three emerging types of public space. Each of the subsequent five sections focuses on a type of activity: recreation, commerce, protest, living and celebration. These sections are international in scope, presenting cases of activities in Brazil, China, Colombia, DR Congo, Egypt, Finland, Germany, Libya, Taiwan, Turkey and the U.S. The closing section, composed of three chapters, presents research methods for studying public space. Graduate students, faculty members and researchers in social science, architecture, landscape architecture, geography, and urban design will find the book useful for understanding, studying, and designing urban public space"-- Provided by publisher. |
