Magical Urbanism Bewertungen

A non-romantic, optimistic view of the role Latinos will play in revitalizing dead urban areas and a dying American Left. * San Francisco Bay Guardian *
Another contemporary classic of Urban Studies from Davis. A wake-up call for anyone who cares about the future of American cities. * Kirkus Reviews *
Fans of Mike Davis's slash-and-burn prose and take-no-prisoners credo will not be disappointed ... His new bo0ok about citified Latinos serves up more helpings of the elegant muckraking that thrilled the readers of City of Quartz and Ecology of Fear. -- Andrew Ross * Bookforum *
Ricky Martin, Sammy Samosa, Jennifer Lopez, Christina Aguilera-something is happening to American popular culture. Mike Davis pulls together the startling facts, identifies the underlying trends and ... brings his characteristic energy, eye for detail and exhaustive research to bear on an important phenomenon that remains mostly unexplored. -- Jon Wiener * In These Times *
This well-researched, well-written book is driven by powerful feelings of indignation at the hardships Latinos are suffering in the United states today. * Washington Post *
