Résumé:
Originally published in 1962, when Lefebvre was beginning his career as a lecturer in sociology at the University of Strasbourg, it established his position in the vanguard of a movement which was to culminate in the events of May 1968. A classic analysis of the modern world using Marxist dialectic, it is a book which supersedes the conventional divisions between academic disciplines. With dazzling skill, Lefebvre moves from philosophy to sociology, from literature to history, to present a profound analysis of the social, political and cultural forces at work in France and the world in the aftermath of Stalin's death—an analysis in which the contours of our own “postmodernity” appear with startling clarity.

Résumé:
L'urbain manifeste aujourd'hui son énormité, déconcertante pour la réflexion, l'action et même l'imagination. Sens et fin de l'industrialisation, la société urbaine se forme en se cherchant et oblige à reconsidérer la philosophie, l'art et la science qui ne peuvent éviter la confrontation avec cet objet nouveau. Ce qui oblige à concevoir une stratégie de la connaissance, inséparable de la stratégie politique. Selon quel axe penser cette stratégie du savoir ? Vers l'entrée en pratique d'un droit : le droit à la ville, à la vie urbaine, condition d'un humanisme et d'une démocratie renouvelés. Ce livre fondateur a été prolongé par «Espace et politique», «Du rural à l'urbain», «La production de l'espace».

Résumé:
Written in 1973 but only recently discovered in a private archive, this work extends Lefebvre’s influential theory of urban space to the question of architecture. Taking the practices and perspective of habitation as his starting place, Lefebvre redefines architecture as a mode of imagination rather than a specialized process or a collection of monuments. He calls for an architecture of jouissance—of pleasure or enjoyment—centered on the body and its rhythms and based on the possibilities of the senses.

Résumé:
The three-volume text by Henri Lefebvre is perhaps the richest, most prescient work about modern capitalism to emerge from one of the twentieth century's greatest philosophers and is now available for the first time in one complete volume. Written at the birth of post-war consumerism, Critique was an inspiration for the 1968 student revolution in France. It is a founding text of cultural studies and a major influence on the fields of contemporary philosophy, geography, sociology, architecture, political theory and urbanism. Lefebvre takes as his starting point and guide the 'trivial' details of quotidian experience: an experience colonized by the commodity, shadowed by inauthenticity, yet remaining the only source of resistance and change. This is an enduringly radical text, untimely today only in its intransigence and optimism.
