Subjects include: Amsterdam's place in global cultural memory; expressions of global consciousness in Amsterdam in the 'Golden Age'; articulations of Amsterdam as a tolerant, multicultural, and permissive 'global village'; and globalization's impact 'on the ground' through city branding, the cultural heritage industry, and cultural production in the city. Written by an interdisciplinary team of scholars, and united by a broad humanities approach, this collection forms a multifaceted inquiry into the dynamic relationship between Amsterdam, globalization, and the urban imaginary UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9789048515134?locatt=mode:legacy UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9789048515134 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9789048515134/original ER -
