/113/ Globoville ft. Richard Williams

On global cities.  Global cities flaunt themselves to global capital and are shaped by it. They are self-conscious and eager to transmit 'globalness'. But why? And how has the city under globalisation been reshaped? What is the role of money and power - not to mention sex and culture? And does the sameyness of global cities now mean that medium and small cities are where we should be looking for cultural and political change?  Subscribe to our patreon for original episodes: patreon.com/bungacast
