En savoir plus sur le livre

The book challenges the notion that cities are solely beneficial by highlighting how the same characteristics that foster positive innovations can also enable negative outcomes. It argues that urban environments create opportunities for elites to exploit resources, leading to wealth extraction from surrounding areas. This duality of urban properties reveals a complex landscape where both good and bad innovations coexist, prompting a reevaluation of the impact cities have on broader societal dynamics.
