Contributors from all over the world provide diverse examples of this phenomenon such as New York, Atlantic City, Rio de Janeiro and Berlin, and emphasize how the concept of a symbolic economy relies upon image. Written for students of sociology, geography, urban studies and anthropology, this book also explores the idea of regeneration, and how cities often re-invent themselves by copying ideas from the past.
