Urbanizing the Mojave Desert: Las Vegas (Bilingual English/German Edition) (English and German Edition)

Urbanizing the Mojave Desert: Las Vegas presents a hybrid landscape shaped and reshaped by practices of everyday urbanization. The images presented here do not project ideals of urban development or solve social and environmental problems. They offer a "third sight" that makes visible the complex, but often interstitial, spaces of everyday production and consumption tied to physical and virtual place making as well as local and global investment.
