Spatial Cultures: Towards a New Social Morphology of Cities Past and Present (New edition.)

Scholarly interest in the relationship of society, space and place that has been a significant characteristic of the ?spatial turn? has always acknowledged the importance of movement. However, its dominant concern with decoding spatial representations has tended to render movement-through-space in representational terms, often to the detriment of a more dynamic notion of the spatiality of built environments that acknowledges them as being distinctive and pluralistic time-space frames of embodied human experience.

This volume advances a distinctive and innovative cross-disciplinary research agenda, ?spatial cultures?, that enables exploration of the relationship between how cities work and what cities mean.
