This book will speak to the new human epoch, the urban age. For the first time a majority of
humanity now lives in cities. The city, the highest invention of the modern age, is now the human
heartland, and yet the same process that brought us the city and its wonders, modernisation,
has also thrown up challenges and threats, especially climate change, resource depletion, social
division and economic insecurity. This book considers how these threats are encountered and
countered in the urban age, focusing on the issue of human knowledge and self-awareness.
Gleeson expertly explores the concept through three main themes. The first is an exploration of
what defines the current human condition, especially the expanding cities that are at the heart of
an over-consumptive world economic order. The second exposes and reviews the reawakening
of forms of knowledge ( naturalism ). The third and last part of the book considers prospects for
a new urban, and therefore human, dispensation, the good city . The Urban Condition attempts
this ideal, conceiving a new
urbanism
based on the old idea of self-limitation.
The Urban Condition is an original, timely book that reconsiders and redeploys
Arendťs
famous
notion of the human condition in an age of cities and risk. It brings together several important
strands of human consideration, urbanisation, climate threat, resource depletion, economic
default and critical knowledge, and weaves them into a new analysis of the times. It also looks to
a future that is nearly with us
-
of changed climate, resource scarcity and economic stress. The
book journeys into these troubled times, proposing the idea of lifeboat cities as a way of thinking
about the human journey to come.
