Discourses of the postmodern are having profound effects on a range of urban practices, from philosophy and political economy to architecture and planning. This collection charts the confrontations between a postmodern aesthetic (and its influence upon architectural, artistic and cultural styles), a socio-economic 'condition' of postmodernity (overlain upon a global economic restructuring of space), and a postmodern paradigm of knowledge (heavily influenced by poststructuralism). "Postmodern Cities and Spaces" brings together a group of writers and critics from diverse disciplinary and geographical backgrounds. It links the architectural and the physical, the aesthetic and the sexual, and the real and imaginary, within a broad discussion of postmodern cities and spaces. The book then examines these urban spaces as a site for 'postmodern politics' - in Bombay, in South Africa, in New York and Los Angeles.
