Mediterranean City in Transition Social Change And Urban Development

Postwar capitalist development has involved a transition from polarization toward diffuse urbanization and flexibility. The timing and form of this transition and its effects on spatial structures have varied, as is especially evident in the case of Mediterranean Europe. Focusing upon Greater Athens between 1948 and 1981 - the crucial period of the transition - Lila Leontidou explores the role of social classes in urban development.Leontidou, Lila is the author of 'Mediterranean City in Transition Social Change And Urban Development', published 2006 under ISBN 9780521025256 and ISBN 0521025257.
