Once the least dense American metropolis, Los Angeles is now the country's densest urbanized area and one of the most culturally heterogeneous cities in the world. Soja takes us through this urban metamorphosis, analyzing urban restructuring, deindustrialization and reindustrialization, the globalization of capital and labor, and the formation of an information-intensive New Economy. By examining his own evolving interpretations of Los Angeles and the debates on the so-called Los Angeles School of urban studies, Soja argues that a radical shift is taking place in the nature of the urbanization process, from the familiar metropolitan model to regional urbanization. By looking at such concepts as new regionalism, the spatial turn, the end of the metropolis era, the urbanization of suburbia, the global spread of industrial urbanism, and the transformative urban-industrialization of China, Soja offers a unique and remarkable perspective on critical urban and regional studies. 606 $aCity planning$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles 606 $aSociology, Urban$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles 606 $aRegional planning$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCity planning 615 0$aSociology, Urban 615 0$aRegional planning 676 $a307.1/2160979494 700 $aSoja$b Edward W$0242718 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463976303321 996 $aMy Los Angeles$92457257 997 $aUNINA
