FOUR INTERVIEWS · Jane Jacobs

Since the publication in 1961 of her mythical work "Death and Life of Great Cities", the respect and fascination for the lucid and incisive gaze of Jane Jacobs has always accompanied the North American intellectual.

This book collects four interviews, unpublished in Spanish, in which we discover the most human and experiential face of Jacobs : from the years of job insecurity, the discovery of the metropolis or his random and aimless walks through the Manhattan of the 1930s , to his incursion into political activism and his sharpest reflections against urban planning and the great dogmas of modernity. An essential reading of one of the great voices of the 20th century.
