Thomas Stellmach on 09 Jan 12Besides its appeal to a longue durée analysis, the topic of urbanism and utopia - and their links, of course - is today rather fashionable, whether one speaks of current exhibitions, critical insights on the idea of a capitalist Utopia, or even indirectly among the latest parliamentary reports. In this series of three guests posts we will explore the definition of a Post-Utopian Urbanism, on the basis of various readings ranging from Lefebvre to recent writings of Jameson and Rem Koolhaas, and to a great extent indebted to David Harvey's seminal analysis of the links between capitalist transformation and our (post)modern perception of space and time (1989).
