This original collection examines how architectural ideas; social models and building forms circulate round the world and become mediated and adapted to local conditions. The book shows how types such as skyscrapers; mosques or living history museums are imported; adapted and contested in different societies and how urban landscapes are reshaped by the global circulation of models drawn from elsewhere. Written by scholars from different disciplinary backgrounds ndash;architecture; anthropology; geography; linguistics; science studies and sociology ndash; the book draws its inspiration from a series of different approaches and offers both original theoretical reflection and carefully crafted case-studies.
