David Harvey

David Harvey is a British-American academic best known for Marxist analyses that focus on urban geography as well as the broader economy, and a Distinguished Professor of anthropology and geography at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. He has written extensively on how capital reshapes cities and social life, and is a proponent of the idea of a right to the city, the claim that urban residents should have a democratic say in how their cities are produced and used. His books and essays have been prominent in the development of modern geography as an academic discipline.
