ABSTRACT
How are power relationships mediated through spatial programming? In this chapter I shall examine such a question in relation to the social theories of Anthony Giddens, Pierre Bourdieu and Michel Foucault. The focus here is on issues of spatial practice and not representation, a topic on which they each also have a good deal to offer and to which I shall return in later chapters. I shall then link such work to the spatial syntax analysis of Bill Hillier. The aim is a methodological framework for analysing power as mediated by spatial programs.
