Koolhaas pronounced urbanism dead in 1995. Since then, urban design has struggled to come to terms with this and other losses including environmental stability, af- fordable housing, design control, and urban amenity. This book explores urban design paradigms transitioning through a misappropriation of Kübler-Ross' «five stages of grief» – from pro-sprawl 'denial', NIMBY 'anger', revisionistNewUrban'bargaining','depressed'starchitects, through to an optimistic manifesto of 'acceptance'.
