"Lechner and Boli's scholarship is extensive, theoretical, abstract
and synthetic ... The authors engage in conceptual and theoretical
refinement and synthesis of existing scholarship and extend that
intellectual frontier with their own substantial contributions.
Lechner and Boli ... deserve special commendation for the rich and
illuminating historical context and examples." Choice
"Lechner and Boli have done their homework and the compendium
they offer is valuable in itself."
The International History Review
"This volume provides a fascinating, and immensely broad-ranging, call to understand the complex inter-relationships between geopolitical forces and those resilient urban lives. Whilst as a source of multiple departures it should be of interest to an equally broad ranging audience, for those particularly curious about the often-neglected ways in which extreme ideologies seek to construct and reconstruct understandings of cities there is much to consider." Andrew Inch, Oxford Brookes University
