Nuestro compañero del IUU, Mario Paris, ha editado el libro “Making Prestigious Places. How luxury influences the transformation of cities”, publicado por Routledge, y participan en el mismo Juan Luis de las Rivas Sanz y Corinna Morandi
Making Prestigious Places investigates the spatial dimension of luxury, both as a sector involving activities, operators and investments, and as a system of values acting as a catalyst for recent urban transformations. Luxury shares a well-established connection to the city, as a place of production, consumption and self-representation, and continues to grow despite economic difficulties. This edited collection includes case studies from Europe, North and South America, Asia and the Middle East to create a dialogue around these developments and the challenges presented, such as the tension between the idea of prestige and current values in urban planning, the discussion between academic reflections and operational practices, and how these interact with the long-term economic and social dynamic of the city. With rich analysis and a preface written by Patsy Healey, this book will be an important addition to the discourse on luxury for urban planners and researchers.
Mario Paris is PoliMI International Fellow and Contract Professor in Urban Planning and researcher of URB&COM lab at the Politecnico di Milano, Italy. His research focuses on the role of luxury stakeholders in recent urban transformations and an advanced spatial analysis of current metropolitan dynamics.
El libro está publicado por Routledge, e integrado en la Serie Routledge Research in Planning and Urban Design.
