Talk:Anti-urbanism

Translation

If anyone was wondering, as I was, whether anti-urbanism is an exact translation of "antiurbain", it turns out that antiurbain is an Anglicism derived from "anti-urbanism" — apparently a more flexible term than "anti-ville" [1]. Not included in this translation is the section "Conséquences sur le plan de l'aménagement du territoire" (consequences for spatial planning, I guess) as well as two short sections on international relations and cinema. The whole thing needs editing for style which I can probably do myself soon, not that I would mind if someone else wanted to. groupuscule (talk) 04:52, 19 May 2017 (UTC)

Significant rewriting needed, but...

I did some digging on French Wikipedia (using Google Translate, since I barely speak any French) and it appears that the French article was part of a university assignment - therefore it's unsurprising that this article seems to be filled with POV, OR, and SYNTH. At the same time, once you cut through it there's a fair bit of good material to work with. The article probably needs a complete rewrite but there is definitely some material that should be preserved. CJK09 (talk) 02:15, 3 September 2017 (UTC)

Suggest removing "dictatorship" section and link to Category:Dictatorship

Anti-urbanism is neither specific to dictatorships nor a feature of all dictatorships. It's not even clear to me that it's a feature of the dictatorships cited, for example Nazi Germany (Nazism began as an urban movement in Munich, and included ambitious urban architectural programs, see generally Albert Speer).
