Introduction: How to Read an Exposition -- Berlin 1896: Wilhelm II, Georg Simmel, and the Berliner Gewerbeausstellung -- Paris 1900: The Exposition universelle as a Century's Protean Synthesis -- London 1908: Imre Kiralfy and the Franco-British Exhibition -- Wembley 1924: The British Empire Exhibition as a Suburban Metropolis -- Vincennes 1931: The Exposition coloniale as a Transitory Center of Imperial Civilization -- Conclusion: Exhibition Fatigue, or the Rise and Fall of a Mass Medium -- Coda: Pictures at an Exhibition.

Imperial expositions held in fin-de-s�icle London, Paris and Berlin were knots in a world-wide web. Conceptualizing exhibitions as meta-media, Fleeting Cities undertakes a transdisciplinary investigation into how modernity was created and displayed, consumed and disputed within the European metropolis. Focusing on five such expositions - the Berliner Gewerbeausstellung (1896), the fifth Parisian Exposition Universelle (1900), the Franco-British Exhibition in London (1908), the British Empire Exhibition at Wembley (1924/25), and the Exposition Coloniale Internationale in Paris (1931) - this award-winning book examines their specific aims and aspirations, evolving forms and execution, and the public debates they engendered. Who shaped these mega-events, how were exposition venues inscribed into the urban fabric, what legacies did they bequeath? Taken as dense textures stretched over time, these expositions undergo both a close hermeneutic reading and broad spatial analysis. Fleeting Cities weaves extensive empirical research with underlying theoretical concerns, investigating their individual meanings in a new form of transnational network analysis.
