The Landscapes of power is a political philosophy term defined as features of the built environment that perform political functions — including establishing the hegemony of a governing entity or an ideological creed in a particular territory and cultivating a sense of pride in place in residents of a territory.〔Jones, Martin, Rhys Jones, and Michael Woods. ''An Introduction to Political Geography: Space, Place and Politics''. New York, NY: Routledge, 2004. 117.〕 Author Sharon Zukin originated the term in her book ''Landscapes of Power: From Detroit to Disney World.''〔Jones, Martin, Rhys Jones, and Michael Woods. ''An Introduction to Political Geography: Space, Place and Politics''. New York, NY: Routledge, 2004. 119.〕 ==Examples== Jeremy Bentham's Panopticon is a prime example of how the organization of physical space performs some of the functions listed above — in this case, establishing the authority over a particular area. The Panopticon is a type of prison built with a circle of cells arranged around a guard tower. The occupants of these cells are visible to the guard, but the prisoners cannot see into the tower. They must consequently behave, as they would be under surveillance, or risk the possible consequences.〔Hannah, Matthew G. "Space and the Structuring of Disciplinary Power: An Interpretive Review." ''Geografiska Annaler'', 79, no. 3 (1997): 171-180. JSTOR, (Nov. 6, 2010).〕 The French philosopher Michel Foucault discussed the Panopticon in his book ''Discipline and Punish: The Birth of the Prison'' There are 4 functions of landscape of power 1. to show who owns what 2. for nation building 3. to create identity and 4. to show who is in power. More commonplace landscapes of power might include monuments, memorials and, as Zukin argues, even cities themselves.〔Jones, Martin, Rhys Jones, and Michael Woods.
