Rapid technological change is altering how we interact with space, place and time. Vast flows make the new norm nomadic, yet there is a yearning for belonging, distinctiveness and identity. Under these pressures, old systems and certainties are crumbling at escalating speed and a different kind of city is being forged in their wake. The new "Civic City" tries to navigate our shared urban challenges--inequality, environmental distress, urban vitality--and to find ways to reinvent opportunities for connection. In this publication, urban planner Charles Landry, a driving force of the "Creative City" concept, guides readers through this evolving urban landscape and offers inspiration for seizing its potential.
