Abstract:
Olivier Mongin’s book City of Flows ("La Ville des flux", published in 2013), reflects on the trajectory of cities in an era of globalisation. For Olivier Mongin, there is an ongoing “de-territorialisation” process in the cities, which avoids regulation, because of their integration into a vast global movement materialised by flows. He argues in favour of the urgent need to rethink urban values, which have taken various forms and semantics through history, and which are vital to envision a more integrative future for cities.
