The book explores the crowd's double function as a symbol of the city's growth and as the necessary context for the public performance of urban culture. Its central argument is that the figure of the crowd acts as a supplement to the symbolic space of the city, at once providing a tangible referent for urban meaning and threatening the legibility of that meaning through its motive force and uncontrollable energy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2015-12-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781349529513\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1057\/9781403978738\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 216cm x140cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 255\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Palgrave Macmillan US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47692424806540,"sku":"9781349529513","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781349529513.jpg?v=1776693252","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781349529513","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
