内容説明

Telecommunications and the City provides the first critical and state-of-the-art review of the relations between telecommunications and all aspects of city development and management. Drawing on a range of theoretical approaches and a wide body of recent research, the book addresses key academic and policy debates about technological change and the future of cities with a fresh perspective. Through this approach, the complex and crucial transformations underway in cities in which telecommunications have central importance are mapped out and illustrated. Key areas where telecommunications impinge on the economic, social, physical, enviromental and institutional development of cities are illustrated by using boxed extracts and wide range of case study examples from Europe, Japan and North America. Rejecting the extremes of optimism and pessimism in current hype about cities and telecommunications, Telecommunications and the City offers a sophisticated new perspective through which city-telecommunications relations can be understood.

目次

  • Part 1 Telecommunications and the City: parallel transformations
  • telecommunications and urban transformations
  • the urban "impacts" of telecommunications
  • the neglect of telecommunications in urban studies
  • the need for more sophisticated approaches to city-telecommunications relations
  • the transformation of telecommunications - from the "plain old telephone service" ("POTS") to telematics
  • the transformation of cities - towards planetary urban networks
  • the structure of the book. Part 2 Telecommunications as a paradigm challenge for urban studies and policy: telecommmunications as a paradigm challenge
  • ways forward - post-modernism, electronic spaces and the tele-mediated city
  • towards new conceptions of the city.
