Viac o knihe
Through twelve insightful essays, the author examines the evolution of urban planning in Los Angeles, highlighting the consequences of prioritizing short-term political and financial interests. Topics include dubious real estate practices, subway development, the aftermath of the 1992 riots in South Central, and the rise of Las Vegas as a rival metropolis. The author argues that to improve the city's livability, it is essential to challenge the prevailing mindset of "cocoon citizenship" and recognize the interconnectedness of Los Angeles's diverse communities.
