Edward Soja, Postmetropolis, 2000

Interwoven with the jumbled spatiality of the globalized postfordist exopolis is a recomposed sociality that has become similarly fluid, fragmented, decentered, and rearranged in complex patterns that are only beginning to be recognized, understood, and effectively studied.

I consider the city to be an outdated structure, incapable of expressing the deep dreams of our time. Cities seem very old-fashioned to me… Now, we communicate by electronic means. The Internet is, above all, the dream of suburbia. I see the future as a kind of planetary suburbia, an infinity of boredom interrupted by unpredictable acts of violence.
