Post, ex, sub and dis - these are but a few of the prefixes that have been used to compose neologisms for describing the contemporary cityscape. Terms such as posturban space, postsuburbia, exurbia and disurbia are part of a dizzying collection of often hotly contested labels. This plethora demonstrates how difficult it has become to name, map and analyse the cityscape. Urban environments have come to evince a radically chaotic and fragmented structure. This book explores how fragmentation has acquired new meanings and how the urban landscape is constantly being deconstructed and reconstructed. Richly illustrated with works by artists and photographers, the volume contains a series of essays on spatial, social and cultural issues written by distinguished scholars from an unusual variety of disciplines.
