Memory Culture and the Contemporary City


Memory Culture and the Contemporary City
Uta Staiger,
Publisher: P M.| 2009 | PDF | 264 pages | 2 MB

These essays by leading figures from academia, architecture and the arts consider how cultures of memory are constructed for and in contemporary cities. They take Berlin as a key case of a historically burdened metropolis, but also extend to other global cities : Jerusalem, Buenos Aires, Cape Town and New York.
