{"product_id":"9781682753460","title":"On The Gaze: Dubai And Its New Cosmopolitanisms (Speaker'S Corner)","description":"On The New Cosmopolitan is an exploration of cosmopolitanism and its 21st-century manifestation in Dubai. \"What do I see? Neon contours of a building at night. A near-empty walkway with a flashing monitor that reads: \"Dubai Digital Park\"; in the morning I see a concrete expanse of flat apartment rooftops amidst a humid, sand-infused horizon, the steaming heat of the desert temperature in August. Plasma screens along a walkway show various scenes of people eating, exercising, shopping, the only people I see. I am in an area called Silicon Oasis. Dubai, a city where 70% of the world is within an 8-hour plane flight from its airport, was built to represent the geographical factuality of its being a crossroads between East and West. A contemporary city of spectacle and the spectacular, it caters to all manner of the gaze.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eAdrianne Kalfopoulou\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eFulcrum Publishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eJul 18, 2023\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e137 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003ePaperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e1682753468\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9781682753460\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Fulcrum Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47940910285105,"sku":"9781682753460","price":16.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/products\/9781682753460.jpg?v=1702822816","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/es\/products\/9781682753460","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
