Beschreibung: The course explores histories and theories of cities and urbanization since the 19th century from an integrated perspective. It aims to convey an understanding of the historically specific ways in which cities and societies develop interdependently. The winter term gave an introduction to key positions and debates in urban theory and urban history. The summer term continues with the discussion of key phases and topics in urban development and expands this overview to engage more closely with contemporary urban discourses and critical issues of urban design and planning and their linkages to wider economic, social and cultural processes and political struggles. The course draws on an interdisciplinary body of literature from architecture and planning as well as the wider field of urban studies and urban history. Key questions to be addressed include: - What are cities, and how and why do they change? - What are the key issues, figures and projects that have shaped urban development since the 19th century? - How are economic, social, and cultural processes linked to physical changes of built structures in the city? The course is taught in English.
