The Public CityEssays in Honour of Paul Mees\nAuthor(s): Brendan Gleeson, Beau B Beza\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Melbourne University Press, Australia\nImprint: Melbourne University Press\nISBN-13: 9780522867305, 978-0522867305\nSynopsis\nPaul Mees' urban ideal counted on watchful, confident and well-informed citizenry to work collectively in a quest for fair and just cities. As such, The Public City is largely a critique of neo-liberalism and its arguably negative influence on urban prospects. As Mees explained it, neo-liberal urbanism was much more than a political aberration; it was a threat that imposed many costly failures in an age overshadowed by grave ecological challenges.\n\nFifteen of Australia and New Zealand's leading urban scholars, including Professor Emeritus Jean Hillier and Professor Brendan Gleeson, have contributed to this collection.\n\nThe Public City includes a foreword by the late Professor Sir Peter Hall, a world leader in urban planning from Britain.
