Since the 1990s, increasingly multinational modes of urban planning and architectural design have arisen, especially concerning flagship projects, prominent buildings, and places. Drawing on his recent book titled “Transnational Architecture and Urbanism: Rethinking How Cities Plan, Transform, and Learn”, Davide Ponzini presents problematic issues such as the spectacularization of the urban environment and the global circulation of similar plans and projects. He shows how architects, planners, and policy makers can critically learn from practice, cope with these and other transnational issues, and put better planning in place.
About the author: Davide Ponzini is a Full Professor of Urban Planning at Politecnico di Milano, and the director of the TAU-Lab. He has been a visiting scholar at Yale, Johns Hopkins, Columbia University, and Sciences Po and Visiting Professor at TU Munich. Co-editor (with Harvey Molotch) of the book The New Arab Urban and author of the book Transnational Architecture and Urbanism.
