Descrizione

The book explores New York City, from the Industrial Revolution to present-day. Analyzing conflicts, transformations, cultural and biotic exchanges and the concepts of democracy, not just in political terms, but looking at the relationship between urban Natures and urban Cultures. Divided into 5 Sections and 8 Chapters, the volume reflects on the different forms of urban organization and practices, comparing the democracy of Nature, in urban areas, to the urban democracy, exploring the role and interaction of anthropic activities with natural dynamics. The book does not discuss the city and nature as aesthetic form but explores the conflictual-collaborative intersection between Urban Nature and Urban Cultures, in relation to historical events and to several contemporary aspects, to learn from the nature and the relationship between nature and culture.
