Time and the Suburbs

The Politics of Built Environments and the Future of Dissent

Rohan Quinby

  • ISBN-13: 9781894037525
  • PRICE: $19.95
  • Paperback, 152 pages

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 an introduction to the important social theory for anyone interested in cities and urban development.
