Malaysia, modernity, and the multimedia super corridor : a critical geography of intelligent landscapes

Author Bunnell, Tim.

Title Malaysia, modernity, and the multimedia super corridor : a critical geography of intelligent landscapes / Tim Bunnell.

Published New York : RoutledgeCurzon, 2004.

Bibliog. Includes bibliographical references and index.

Contents 1. Introduction -- 2. Modernity, space and the government of landscape -- 3. Positioning Malaysia: connections, divisions and development -- 4. Kuala Lumpur City Centre (KLCC): global reorientation -- 5. Putrajaya and Cyberjaya: intelligent cities, intelligent citizens -- 6. Beneath the intelligent cities: socio-spatial dividing practices -- 7. Conclusion.

Summary "Based on fieldwork in Malaysia, this book provides a critical examination of the socio-spatial transformation of the country's main urban region. In the late twentieth century Kuala Lumpur experienced a spectacular redevelopment of urban space while the city formed part of an extended metropolitan area. Particular attention is paid here to the development of the Multimedia Super Corridor, a high-tech zone which extends fifty kilometres from the capital, and includes two new 'intelligent' cities, Putrajaya and Cyberjaya." "As the first book-length academic analysis of the development of Kuala Lumpur and the construction of the Multimedia Super Corridor, this work offers a situated, contextual account which will appeal to all those with research interests in Asian Urban Studies and Asian Sociology."--BOOK JACKET.
