Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. "Imagined Country" attempts to describe the relationship between society and the physical world through representation. The myths and symbols of spaces reveal how society regards its environment. As cultural perception shifts, altered by location and time, so its representations of the physical environment change. Analysis of such representation can disclose not only the reasons but the understanding behind the myths and symbols of the natural world. John Short describes the varying images of wilderness, countryside and city as they are expressed in cultural forms. His analysis focuses on the cinema in North America, British literature and Australian painting. The choice of media may reflect national ideology as may the specific representation itself. However, the book's aim is not to compare countries but to explore a physical and metaphorical geography in search of motifs, of archetypes of land and man. This book should be of interest to environmental studies, geography, history of ideas, cultural studies, film, literature, art studies, psychology, sociology and general readership. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Zustand: Muy bueno. : En 'The Humane City', John R. Short explora cómo las ciudades occidentales, a pesar de estar habitadas por personas, están estructuradas y operadas según las necesidades de planificadores, arquitectos y capitalistas, en lugar de sus residentes. El autor analiza el crecimiento urbano durante la revolución industrial y el auge del capitalismo, destacando cómo el capital moldea las ciudades en función del beneficio en lugar del bienestar humano. Short propone una mayor participación ciudadana en la planificación y gestión urbana, argumentando que las personas deben ser tratadas como seres políticos con la capacidad de influir en su entorno. El libro examina si el pensamiento liberal ha priorizado demasiado los derechos individuales y aboga por extender la soberanía del consumidor a la esfera pública, permitiendo a los ciudadanos elegir el diseño y la gestión de sus viviendas, escuelas y servicios públicos. Concluye promoviendo una mayor participación de los empleados en el lugar de trabajo, fomentando la creatividad y la satisfacción laboral.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. Contents: I. Setting the Scene: 1. Introduction. 2. The Urban Transformation. II. The Urban Systems: 3. Urban Systems and Economic Development. 4. Managing the Urban System. III. The Internal Structure of the City: 5. The City as Workplace. 6. The City as Residence. 7. Movement and Transport. 8. The City as Investment. 9. The City as Political Arena. IV. People and the Urban Environment: 10. Perception and Activity in the City. 11. The City as Ecological Unit. Designed as an introductory text for students at universities, colleges and polytechnics, this book describes the various approaches which geographers have applied to the study of urban areas over the years. It aims to integrate the study of cities and urbanism to a wider view of how society works, showing how social theories can be brought to bear on the analysis of the city and how an understanding of cities can enrich our view of society. By making students aware of the variety in the urban condition, it gives them a greater appreciation of the social context of urban living and provides a fresh insight into that generator of economic, social and political change, the city. The text is broad in scope, and makes full use of the cross-cultural approach, drawing upon the wide range of the urban experience around the world. It also concerns itself with the redistributional consequences of urban patterns and social processes, and analyses the impact that public policy has in shaping urban areas, showing that the role of government is a key element in the analysis.
