Author: Mélina Germes, Stefan Höhne & Luise Klaus (eds.)
With debates about the decriminalisation of drugs on the rise, an exploration of drug maps is long overdue. 'Narcotic Cities' traces the complex entanglements of drugs, institutions, activities, and the way they are represented with spaces and places, shedding new light on our cities. Through the medium of graphic essays, this book explores urban stories, as well as the histories, policies, communities, digital spaces, and pleasures associated with drugs.By experimenting with different graphic languages, this volume assembles a rich mosaic of multi-scalar urban perspectives on drugs, sharing little-known knowledge as well as reflections on the pitfalls, omissions, and failures of drug cartographies.
ISBN 9783986120009. JOVIS. pb. 320 pages. 24 x 24 cm.
