Neo-Bohemia
Neo-Bohemia brings the study of bohemian culture down to
the street level, while maintaining a commitment to understanding
broader historical and economic urban contexts. Simultaneously
readable and academic, this book anticipates key urban trends at
the dawn of the twenty-first century, shedding light on both
the nature of contemporary bohemias and the cities that house
them. The relevance of understanding the trends it depicts has
only increased, especially in light of the current urban crisis
puncturing a long period of gentrification and new economy
development, putting us on the precipice, perhaps, of the next
new bohemia.
