A description of Strive City, which is based on combining Ebenezer Howard’s A Peaceful Path to Real Reform (1898) and Strava Metro, a company that monetizes data sets present as a sales pitch for the city. All the stories in the book are responses to a recent book, A New City O/S: The Power of Open, Collaborative, and Distributed Government (Washington, DC: Brookings Institution Press, 2017), by Stephen Goldsmith and Neil Kleiman, that proposes, in the editors’ interpretation, that cities should act more like Amazon in dealing with their citizens. |
