"TransUrbanism is urbanism plus transformation. TransUrbanism is urbanism plus globalization. The city is no longer a clearly localizable spatial unit, but has transformed into an "urban field," a collection of activities instead of a material structure. Cities today are in a state of continuous decomposition, but are also continually reorganizing and rearranging themselves, expanding and shrinking. " "TransUrbanism is a design strategy that allows cities to organize themselves as complex systems, where small local structures incorporate global flows. "--BOOK JACKET.
