Summary:

Der französische Philosoph und Soziologe Henri Lefebvre (1901-1991) gilt als einer der Vordenker des so genannten spatial turn. Die Beiträge dieses Bandes untersuchen sein Werk aus literaturwissenschaftlicher, historischer, philosophischer, soziologischer und ethnologischer Perspektive mit Blick auf die praktische Anwendbarkeit der Theorien.

The articles take a decidedly interdisciplinary look at the opus of the French philosopher, sociologist and pioneer of spatial analysis Henri Lefebvre (1901-1991). His works are reflected upon from theoretical and practical perspectives by authors from various fields (literature, history, philosophy, sociology, ethnology) closely examining text references from Lefebvre.
