Description
Abstract from the publisher:
By combining provocative prose with photo-essay, Time and the Suburbs explores the disappearance of cities in North America under the weight of suburban, exurban, and other forms of development that are changing the way we live and do politics. Drawing on social theory from Henri Lefebvre and Guy Debord to Antonio Negri, this book reconceptualizes the tasks facing activists and social movements. This is both a provocative essay and introduction to important social theory for anyone interested in cites and urban development.
Rohan Quinby is a freelance writer, editor, and photographer living in Nashville, Tennessee. He has published essays on travel and urbanism and has a postgraduate degree in Public Policy from Massey University in New Zealand.
