This book takes us on a global dérive through emerging urban conditions in five continents, seen through the eyes of more than 50 international architects, urban planners, politicians and artists. The term urban today no longer indexes a normative cultural concept, but represents a cosmos of extremely varied notions determined by geographical, cultural, and individual preferences.
