The Real Fake: Authenticity and the Production of Space - Polis: Fordham Series in Urban Studies
Maria Francesca Piazzoni
The Real Fake explores how the users of Thames Town—an English-like village built in Songjiang New Town near Shanghai—negotiate the notion of authenticity through their everyday social and spatial practices. Piazzoni argues that authenticity underlies the social and physical production of space through both top-down and bottom-up dynamics.
