Preferred term

landscapes of power  

Definition(s)

  • Sharon Zukin's 1991 book, Landscapes of Power, developed an argument that the creative destruction inherent to capitalism also remakes the places in which people live, work, consume, and recreate. The term has been adopted by geographers, sociologists, urban studies, historians, anthropologists, and political scientists and is present in many different debates about economics and geography since the publication of Zukin's book.
