Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
This course focuses on the analysis of various strategies and approaches to urban redevelopment. Its starting premise is that cities are part of global economic, political, and cultural dynamics that shape policy discourses and trajectories within the contexts of capital accumulation. Throughout the class, we will analyze conceptual approaches to scale, global urbanism, gentrification, redevelopment, policy, and others. With the reading assignments, the class will reflect on how arts, migration, housing, and environment, among others, become enveloped into rhetoric of revitalization and economic growth and its subsequent impacts on cities and urban life. This a seminar style class and students are encouraged to participate with their reflections on readings, as well as personal and professional experiences that provide new perspectives to assigned topics.
