Maps and Meaning: Urban Cartography and Urban Design

Beschreibung

Focusing on Southeast Asia, this examines the transition from pre-modern to modern modes of mapping enabled through the mediation of Western intervention. The aim is to comparatively trace the map's historical evolution in intertwining Western and non-Western contexts. Using archival materials, the study brings together Southeast Asian urban history, history of urban cartography, and urban design theories.
