Last Year's Class

Here's an archive of our seminar for January-May 2012:  the main course page, the syllabus, the week-by-week schedule of our discussions; and the final course evaluations.

Before the First Class...

Please read this: Michael Kahn (1971).  "The Seminar."  Unpublished manuscript.  Santa Cruz:  Kresge College, University of California - Santa Cruz. 

If you're looking for archival materials on "The City as an Entertainment Machine," see this.
Rebel Cities (Harvey, 2012) + Networks of Outrage and Hope (Castells, 2012) = Networks of Rebellious [Yet Hopeful] Urbanists.
We are serious.  A better urban world is possible!
