It explores the strategies of spatial governance that sought to restructure society and looks at the cast of characters who shaped these processes. It challenges traditional views of urban modernism and sheds new light on the importance of the immediate post-war for the trajectory of planned urban renewal in 20th century. It examines plans and policies designed to produce and govern lived spaces - shopping centres, housing estates, parks, schools and homes - and shows how and why they succeeded or failed. 606 $aUrban renewal$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01162536 606 $aCities and towns$xGrowth$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00861781 606 $aUrban renewal$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aCities and towns$zGreat Britain$xGrowth$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aGreat Britain$2fast 608 $aHistory. 610 $aModernity. 610 $aPlanning. 610 $aRebuilding. 610 $aReconstruction. 610 $aSocial Housing. 610 $aUrban Modernism. 615 7$aUrban renewal. 615 7$aCities and towns$xGrowth. 615 7$aUrban renewal$xHistory 615 7$aCities and towns$xGrowth$xHistory 676 $a711.40942565 700 $aGreenhalgh$b James$0847857 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910965551703321 996 $aReconstructing modernity$94367633 997 $aUNINA
