Samenvatting
By viewing urban landscapes in relation to the individuals and organizations responsible for their creation, this book aims to proveide a crucial missing dimension to urban landscape history and an insight into the dynamics of contemporary urban change.
Urban landscapes are an important part of the daily lives of most of the population of the western world. Buildings, streets, gardens and parks are a fundamental means by which we orientate ourselves within cities, and contribute significantly to our daily levels of efficiency and well-being (or lack of them). The creation and maintenance of the urban environment accounts for a sizeable proportion of public and private expenditure. Yet despite the controversy surrounding a few special places, the people and forces responsible for shaping ordinary town and city landscapes have rarely been systematically investigated and are poorly understood.
