Architecture as a Global System: Scavengers, Tribes, Warlords and Megafirms

By Peter Raisbeck

This book provides a clear-sighted analysis which suggests that architectural design may yet shape and order the future of cities. A clear argument that emerges is that to retain their future agency, architects must understand the contours and ecologies of practice that constitute the global system of architectural production.
