Cities, like the people that live in them, are subject to the attention economy. In The City Authentic, author David A. Banks shows how cities are transforming themselves to appeal to modern desires for authentic urban living through the attention-grabbing tactics of social media influencers and reality-TV stars. Blending insightful analysis with pop culture, this engaging study of New York State's Capital Region is an accessible glimpse into the social phenomena that influence contemporary cities. The rising economic fortunes of cities in the Rust Belt, Banks argues, are due in part to the markers of its previous decay--which translate into signs of urban authenticity on the internet. The City Authentic unpacks the odd connection between digital media and derelict buildings, the consequences of how we think about industry and place, and the political processes that have enabled a new paradigm in urban planning. Mixing urban sociology with media and cultural studies, Banks offers a lively account of how urban life and development are changing in the twenty-first century"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Urbanization $x Economic aspects $z Upstate New York. $z Upstate New York. 650 0 $a City planning $x Economic aspects $z Upstate New York. $z Upstate New York. 650 0 $a Social media $z Upstate New York $z Upstate New York $x Influence. 650 0 $a Authenticity (Philosophy) 650 6 $a Authenticite (Philosophie) 650 7 $a HISTORY / Social History. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Authenticity (Philosophy) $2 fast 650 7 $a City planning $x Economic aspects $2 fast 650 7 $a Social media $x Influence $2 fast 650 7 $a Urbanization $x Economic aspects $2 fast 651 7 $a New York (State) $z Upstate New York $2 fast 776 08 $i Online version: $a Banks, David A., 1986- $t City authentic $d Oakland, California : University of California Press, [2023] $z 9780520383470 $w (DLC) 2022036319 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240417024657.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A052D1BEFC8011EE9ABF7B513DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
