In \u003ci\u003eArchitectures of Revolt\u003c\/i\u003e, the editor and contributors chronicle city-specific case studies from Paris, Berlin, Milan, and Chicago to New York, Los Angeles, Mexico City, and Tokyo. The films discussed range from avant-garde and agitprop shorts to mainstream narrative feature films. All of them share a focus on the city and, often, particular streets and buildings as places of political contestation and sometimes violence, which the medium of cinema was uniquely equipped to capture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eContributors include: Stephen Barber\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003e, \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eStanley Corkin\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e, \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eJesse Lerner, Jon Lewis\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e, \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eGaetana Marrone, Jennifer Stob, Andrew Webber, and the editor.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mark Shiel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53614974697852,"sku":"9781439910030","price":86.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0251\/4980\/0541\/files\/9781439910030_3ff7d943-bd58-43fe-90ae-f9ef708e0e23.jpg?v=1727779277","url":"https:\/\/combined-academic.myshopify.com\/products\/architectures-of-revolt","provider":"Combined Academic Publishers - Mare Nostrum Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
