      abstract = {"Urban Design Since 1945: A Global Perspective reviews the  emergence of urban design as a global phenomenon. The book  opens with the urgent need to rebuild cities and re-house  the millions of refugees living in camps and shantytowns at  the end of the Second World War. Against this background,  the book traces the collapse of the modernist,  comprehensive state-planning schemes on both sides of the  Iron Curtain as global corporations emerged, concentrating  on networks and enclaves. It describes how Latin America  and then Asia began a rapid urbanisation process, shifting  the global urban centre away from Europe and overturning  existing urban design models. This resulted in global  megacities of an unprecedented scale, often with large  associated shantytowns." --},
