Book excerpt: This volume investigates the »cool city« phenomenon with an empirical focus on Istanbul.

The contributions draw attention to the significance of thinking production, consumption and performance of cities in relation to their imagination, and trigger critical questions beyond disciplinary academic boundaries.
