Document Summary
Nicholas bromley - land and the postcolonial city" in unsettling the city: urban land and the politics of property. Not a racist construct, but a social construct. David malouf, remembering babylon - the story of an australian man who looks white, but eventually beat up and thrown out when his race is learned. What kind of lifestyle you can have in vancouver is going to be policed. The people you are going to focus on does not have to do with good behaviour, but rather colonization. Jan morris, city to city - it is not another country that is encountered, but another country that is created in vancouver. Bromley argues how the rights of the city was dominated. Everyone who looked at the orient aimed to study it. Even though people said they thoughtful people should be the same, they looked at the orient as di erent. Imperialism means settling on land which you do not possess.
