The City Episode February 4, 2014
Vancouver: Consumption City
5:00pm - 6:00pm
On the program, urban economic geographer Elliot Siemiatycki discusses Vancouvers transformation from a productive city into a city of consumption, dominated increasingly by real estate and tourism. We examine how the citys structure, feel, and image of itself have shifted over the last three decades and how the rise of precarious employment is implicated in this transformation.
