Limits to Culture by Malcolm Miles

A critical look at cultural urban regeneration and how it is used as a political tool by the ruling elite to police populations.
'A clear sighted and important contributionAt last, a much needed corrective to the narrative of the 'creative class'. I really recommend it.' -- Anna Minton, Reader in Architecture at the University of East London and author of Ground Control
'Builds on more than a decade of writing against the grain of culture-led urban regeneration. This book is not only critique but an attempt to re-imagine what a progressive future for cities might be' -- Justin O'Connor
Malcolm Miles is Professor of Cultural Theory at the University of Plymouth. He is the author of Herbert Marcuse: an Aesthetics of Liberation (Pluto, 2011) and Limits to Culture (Pluto, 2015).
