Description: Badlands of Modernity : Heterotopia and Social Ordering, Paperback by Hetherington, Kevin, ISBN 0415114705, ISBN-13 9780415114707, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Draws on Foucault's analysis of heterotopia (defined as spaces of alternate ordering) to examine contemporary questions about modernity and postmodernity through analysis of important social spaces of the 18th century, looking at the character of social order and the significance of marginal space in relation to issues of order, transgression, and resistance. Settings discussed include the Palais Royal during the French Revolution, the Masonic lodge, and the early factories of the Industrial Revolution. Argues that modernity originates through an interplay between ideas of utopia and heterotopic practice, and stresses the importance of the processes that produce social ordering and the spaces in which they emerge.
