Not only is the Middle East one of the world’s most urbanized regions, but it’s also where the story of the city began. In this podcast, New Lines Magazine's Lydia Wilson is joined by Yasser Elsheshtawy, adjunct professor of architecture at Columbia University, and Mona Fawaz, professor of urban studies and planning at the American University of Beirut, to talk about cities in the modern Middle East — and explore what opportunities and challenges the next chapter in this 10,000-year story might hold for the millions of Middle Easterners who call cities their home.
