Heritage, Culture, and Identity Sport, Leisure and Culture in the Postmodern City, (Hardcover)

Illustrated by an interdisciplinary study of Leeds, a typical 'postmodern city', this volume examines how such cities have reinvented themselves - commercially, politically and spatially - over the past two decades. The work addresses issues like cultural policy, city-centre development, sport, leisure and identity, and explores different urban processes in relation to changing configuration of class, gender and ethnicity in the postmodern city.
