Crisis of urbanism. Why cities make us unhappy

Modern cities have become a place of colonization for the wealthy and successful, receding far from agricultural areas and towns. Hubs, co-working spaces and technological innovations fill parks, shops and coffee shops. The development of cities and urban areas led to an irresistible increase in rents and the concentration of wealth. In his book, economist and sociologist Richard Florida examines the crisis that has arisen as a result of the current type of urbanization.

This book is of interest to anyone interested in urbanism and urban development, as well as innovation. Richard Florida analyzes the impact of modern urbanization on the world economy and offers options for overcoming the challenges facing modern cities.

The book's author, Richard Florida, is a leading urban theorist and professor at the University of Toronto. He is the author of numerous articles and books on this topic, which explore the impact of globalization and technological innovation on modern urban environments.
