Cities have long been recognized as key sites for fostering new communication practices. How do cities remember? However, as contemporary cities experience major changes, how do diverse inhabitants encounter each other?
Communicative Cities and Urban Space offers a critical analysis of contemporary changes in the relation between urban space and communication.This volume seeks to understand the situatedness of contemporary communication practices in diverse contexts of urban life, and to explore digitized urban space as a historically specific communicative environment. What is the role of the built environment in fostering sites for public communication in a digital era? The essays in this book collectively propose that the concept of the 'communicative city' is a productive frame for rethinking the above questions in the context of 21st-century 'media cities'.
