The liberal governance of the nineteenth-century state and city depended on the "rule of freedom." As a form of rule it relied on the production of certain kinds of citizens and patterns of social life, which in turn depended on transforming both the material form of the city (its layout, architecture, infrastructure) and the ways it was inhabited and imagined by its leaders, citizens and custodians. Focusing mainly on London and Manchester, but with reference also to Glasgow, Dublin, Paris, Vienna, colonial India, and even contemporary Los Angeles, Patrick Joyce creatively and originally develops Foucauldian approaches to historiography to reflect on the nature of modern liberal society. His consideration of such "artifacts" as maps and censuses, sewers and markets, public libraries and parks, and of civic governments and city planning, are intertwined with theoretical interpretations to examine both the impersonal, often invisible forms of social direction and control built into the infrastructure of modern life and the ways in which these mechanisms shape cultural and social life and engender popular resistance.

With postmodernism has come the questioning of the very idea of 'the social'. Thinkers form across the social sciences and humanities now agree that this one foundational concept can no longer be taken for granted as an objective or real characteristic of the world. However, their uncertainty has taken on many guises and the social in Question represents an attempt to pull these diverse forms of questioning together.Drawn form sociology, cultural studies, history and theology, an international and eminent cast of contributors look at how the idea of 'the social' developed from its mediaeval foundations to its consolidation in the early twentieth century. The book then charts how the concept has been brought into the question by critiques from science studies, cultural studies and postcolonial studies before going on to look at how new framework are being proposed for the exploration of issues formerly seen as 'the social'. This book makes a fascinating contribution to the rethinking of contemporary academic activity.

This book examines the advertising posters, town plans and geographical views that encouraged middle-class emigration to New Zealand in the 1840s. It explores how the New Zealand Company exploited visual literacy to advertise its settlement in Te Whanganui ā Tara Wellington. A tale of two towns, prospective English settlers looked to Wellington to make their homes, while Te Whanganui ā Tara was already home to numerous Māori sub-tribes. The book explores the worlds of each to ask how the images produced by the New Zealand Company were complicit in transferring Māori land into English ownership. Not seeking blame, it works instead to understand, and investigates processes of redress, offering hope for a post post-colonial future in Aotearoa New Zealand. This book will interest scholars and students of migration, visual culture and print history.

Seguire percorsi alternativi, incuriositi dalle geometrie degli edifici e dal labirinto delle vie; abbandonarsi al fascinoso magnetismo delle mappe; tralasciare le guide ufficiali per osservare una città da angolature diverse, da prospettive ignorate, spesso occultate: e così scoprirne la storia nascosta, rievocarne i trascorsi eroici e drammatici, evitando la superficie piatta dei percorsi turistici. New York, New Orleans, Parigi, Manchester, Salford, Londra: Mario Maffi racconta sei metropoli, teatri di vissuti collettivi passati e presenti, frammenti in continua mutazione del nostro mondo urbanizzato. E, sul filo della memoria – sua e dei luoghi –, ci conduce attraverso la sghemba Manhattan del Lower East Side, cancello d’ingresso per milioni di immigrati a due passi da Wall Street; fra i sentieri e i crocevia di una New Orleans multietnica, segnata nel profondo dalle cupe tragedie della schiavitù; su per le ripide colline di Parigi che ancora ci parlano dell’assalto al cielo della Comune del 1871, e lungo una Senna muta testimone di feroci repressioni; nell’intrico dei fiumi e dei canali, delle strade e delle fabbriche di Manchester e Salford, le culle della rivoluzione industriale esplorate da Friedrich Engels, cantate da Ewan MacColl, dipinte da L.S. Lowry; dentro i vicoli angusti e nel convulso ma vitale angiporto dell’East End londinese, ieri combattivo e proletario, oggi minacciato dalla tracotante gentrification. Città di memoria è un lungo itinerario, ripercorso e rivissuto passo dopo passo, che collega luoghi e tempi distanti fra loro grazie a un unico filo rosso: l’empatica meraviglia con cui Maffi ci propone scorci inaspettati, storie di conflitti e di rivolte, musiche, sapori e odori, parole, aneliti e passioni, intensamente assorbiti nei suoi percorsi di esploratore urbano. Per riportare alla luce quelle tracce che, racchiuse in interi quartieri, non cessano di parlare, davanti all’incedere di un nuovo troppo privo di memoria.
