Evil Paradises is an indispensable guide to the spectacular urban follies of the neo-liberal age. It is the thread of Evil Paradises that extremes of wealth have created an insatiable demand tor luxury consumption and spatial separation from the rest of humanity. In their introduction, Davis and Monk vividly describe 'evil paradises' as the sealed spaces where the winners of neo-liberal wealth redistribution across the globe give full vent to the whims of conspicuous consumption.
