Naked City
ISBN: 9780199794461 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. As cities have gentrified, educated urbanites have come to prize what they regard as "authentic" urban life: aging buildings, art galleries, and funky ethnic restaurants. But as Sharon Zukin shows in Naked City, the pervasive demand for authenticity has helped drive out the very people who first lent a neighborhood its authentic aura: immigrants, the working class, and artists. Through a guided tour of six archetypal New York City neighborhoods, Zukin shows how the emphasis on distinctiveness has become a tool of economic elites to drive up real estate values and force out the neighborhood...

Naked City: The Death and Life of Authentic Urban Places
ISBN: 9780195382853 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. As cities have gentrified, educated urbanites have come to prize what they regard as "authentic" urban life: aging buildings, art galleries, small boutiques, upscale food markets, neighborhood old-timers, funky ethnic restaurants, and old, family-owned shops. These signify a place's authenticity, in contrast to the bland standardization of the suburbs and exurbs. But as Sharon Zukin shows in Naked City, the rapid and pervasive demand for authenticity--evident in escalating real estate prices, expensive stores, and closely monitored urban streetscapes--has helped drive out the...

ISBN: 9780813570976 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Since its initial publication, Loft Living has become the classic analysis of the emergence of artists as a force of gentrification and the related rise of "creative city" policies around the world. This 25th anniversary edition, with a new introduction, illustrates how loft living has spread around the world and that artists' districts--trailing the success of SoHo in New York--have become a global tourist attraction.

The Cultures of Cities
ISBN: 9781557864376 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. How do cities use culture today? Building on the experience of New York as a -culture capital- Sharon Zukin shows how three notions of culture - as ethnicity, aesthetic, and marketing tool - are reshaping urban places and conflicts over revitalization. She rejects the idea that cities have either a singular urban culture or many different subcultures to argue that cultures are constantly negotiated in the city's central spaces - the streets, parks, shops, museums, and restaurants - which are the great public spaces of modernity.
While cultural gentrification may contribute to... How do cities use culture today? Building on the experience of New York as a -culture capital- Sharon Zukin shows how three notions of culture - as et...

Landscapes of Power: From Detroit to Disney World
ISBN: 9780520082885 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 338 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The momentous changes which are transforming American life call for a new exploration of the economic and cultural landscape. In this book Sharon Zukin links our ever-expanding need to consume with two fundamental shifts: places of production have given way to spaces for services and paperwork, and the competitive edge has moved from industrial to cultural capital. From the steel mills of the Rust Belt, to the sterile malls of suburbia, to the gentrified urban centers of our largest cities, the "creative destruction" of our economy--a process by which a way of life is both lost and...

Beyond Marx and Tito: Theory and Practice in Yugoslav Socialism
ISBN: 9780521084024 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this study Dr Zukin combines the approaches of a political scientist and a sociologist to examine the distance between theory and practice in the lives of ordinary Yugoslavs living under socialist self-management.

She also considers the relevance of the official ideology of self-management, institutions like workers' councils and communes, and political and economic controls to post-industrial as well as...
