Abstract

Becoming Places Urbanism/Architecture/ Identity/Power, Kim Dovey, Routledge, TaylorFrancis Group, London and New York, 2010, ISBN 0-415-41636-1, 197 pp. Paperback This book presents a comprehensive research about the concept of place with an approach of compounding theory and practice. The essays clarifying the ideas and theories about places in states of becoming support various case studies, often undertaken with co-authors. Theoretical ground is substantially based on the assemblage theory of Deleueze and the habitus of Bourdieu.
