Abstract

It occurred to us that a “rereading of cities” could include challenging the longstanding authority of the city as the singular arena for the framing and legitimization of all cultural production. An effective rereading may have as much to do with the recalibration of centers and peripheries (including the myths and beliefs intrinsic to the desire for centers), and experimentation with other sources of orientation.
