Could the late 20th‐century rejection of Modernist planning, and along with it the notion of a ‘universal subject’, mean that urban designers and architects might have lost sight of who they are designing cities for? Albert Pope sets out on a search to define the contemporary ‘who’ and finds some answers in Michel Foucault's notion of the historically grounded subject. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
