Istanbul, Open City - Exhibiting Anxieties of Urban Modernity

Summary

Following recent postcolonial calls towards a comparative urbanism which decouples the understanding of the modern from its privileged association with the West, this book puts forward a detailed and original study of Istanbul in the post-war period to bring fresh insights on urban modernity more generally.
