Abstract

"This seminar explores how the buildings, streets, and public spaces of a city relate to its economic, social, and political life. The seminar thus bridges visual studies and the social sciences. The seminar is pro-active. In addition to classroom readings and discussions, you will work in small teams to photograph and film particular projects in the city. I'd hope also that you'd become involved in one of the urban design projects underway at the university. The course aims to sensitize you to the urban environment, as well as introduce you to the skills urbanists use in their work."
