The theme of the conference is about the recovery of the discipline of Urbanism under the conditions of urbanization and urban transformation, ecological threats and economical crises.<br /> <br /> More than 35 years after the publication of La Question Urbaine by Manuel Castells the urban question has to be asked anew. In the meantime the world is experiencing the fastest urbanization in history of man. Never before has human society gone through a comparable process of urban growth, nor have cities expanded as today. Within a few decennia new mega-cities or even meta-cities arose that are confronting the world with new urban cultures, with increasing social contradictions and with new and unknown environmental threats. On the other hand, more than half of the urban population worldwide is living in middle-sized cities up to 500.000 inhabitants that have become the major catchment areas for future population growth.<br /> <br /> For decennia urban development has been dominated by a globalizing economy and almost unlimited market demands. While economic power more and more became concentrated in global command centers, the influence of public planning decreased in the framework of governmental decentralization. However, the recent economical crisis has shown the limits of growth under the conditions of neo-liberalism. New models for urban development, new concepts for urban design and new approaches for planning and management are demanded that are able to guide the processes of extension and transformation of cities and regions, to bridge social contradictions, to combat segregation and fragmentation and to face the ecological challenges. With other words: The discipline of Urbanism has to be rediscovered.<br /> <br /> Sub-themes :<br /> <br /> A.The new urban Economy<br /> B. The Urbanized Society<br /> C.

Riis gave us How the Other Half Lives, shedding light on the plight oftenement dwellers &mdash; people who had moved to the city in search of a better life. Today, we again need to address how this urban half lives. <br /> <br /> How are we to plan, build, budget, negotiate, develop, promote, govern, service, use, embrace and secure a myriad of different sustainable urban futures? We now call upon policy-makers, practitioners and researchers from the public, private and academic sectors to share their predictions and proposals for the futures of cities! <br /> <br /> As our urban numbers increase, so do the questions: What are the impacts? On the cityscape, on the countryside, on the built environment,on where we work, where you live, and where Peter plays? <br /> <br /> What are the indicators? Recent findings, current trends! Hard facts, future figures! What is the measure of urban quality, of adequate housing? What are current construction rates?

These regions are the locations of the bulk of the world&rsquo;s largest cities; now house the majority of urban residents worldwide; are experiencing historically unprecedented scales and rates of urbanization; and often do not fit within conventional models of the modern capitalist city. Rapid urbanization is a consequence of rural deprivation, industrialization, shifting cultural norms, increased ease of mobility and communication, shifting development discourses, and globalized flows of commodities, investment capital and labor. The largest such cities are often referred to as &lsquo;mega&rsquo; cities&mdash;a term that has come to also connote mega challenges, of the sort which cities in the global North have overcome (congestion, shanty towns, pollution, poverty and the informal economy), or so it is often presented. While &lsquo;mega&rsquo; has taken on negative connotations, it has become desirable to become a &lsquo;world&rsquo; or &lsquo;global&rsquo; city, joining the ranks of such places as Tokyo, New York or London.<br /> <br /> Such dreams and ambitions have long existed, lying behind continual attempts by states to clean up and modernize their cities, but have taken new forms during the past two decades of neoliberal globalization. Opinion makers and supra-national institutions in the global North have been promoting a neoliberal model of global urbanism, specifying a set of governance, planning and policy prescriptions that are supposed to guarantee that all cities will modernize and all urban residents can eventually prosper, including those in the South. For example, the recently, the World Bank has taken up the challenge of modernizing mega cities in the global South. It has rescaled its development strategies (e.g., structural adjustment, poverty reduction, good governance, fiscal prudence, stakeholder participation) downward from the national to the metropolitan scale, seeking to turn mega-cities into global cities through market-led urban development policies that are circulating as best-practice models across the globe, thereby informing and influencing visions and practices of urban transformation and urban life.<br /> &nbsp;&nbsp; <br /> <br /> The social, political, and ecological consequences and limits of such models and practices necessitate careful examination, however. Dependency theorists and post-colonial scholars alike have criticized this univalent vision of development for its dismissal of local alternatives and its representation of the global South as backward. In this alternative view, solutions for the evident problems of &lsquo;mega&rsquo;-cities should not simply be conceived in terms of more first-world development models and strategies. Indeed, these first-world models and strategies have hardly been a panacea for the many problems that mega-cities in the global South exhibit.<br /> <br /> This symposium takes up these concerns by addressing the following questions:<br /> <br /> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; * What is the genealogy of urban models of global capitalism? How have global North perspectives on development, politics and society shaped urban development models, conceptions of poverty, civil society, urban living, and legitimate livelihood strategies in the global South?<br /> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; * What processes, constellations of actors, practices, and institutions have facilitated the accelerated flow and rapid transfer of global North models of urban transformation and living across cities in the global South?<br /> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; * What are the social, political, and environmental consequences and limits of such models? In terms of social consequences, this involves, for example, examining the types of urban displacement that are emerging within global South metropolises. It involves asking why some social and ethnic groups are gaining greater access to &lsquo;world-city&rsquo; services such as 24/7 clean water and electricity, safe housing, and secure livelihoods, while others are not.<br /> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; * What alternative imaginaries, theories, and practices are already present within or emerging from global South metropolises, and what is their potential for more just and sustainable cities and urban living? Exploring this question will involve examining contestations and local experimentations with alternative development models and practices, particularly those led by civil society organizations, as well as the visions and practices of marginal populations in cities of the global South.<br /> &nbsp;</div> <b>Papers : </b></div> &nbsp;</div> AbdouMaliq Simone - &quot;Remaking Urbanization in a new Global South&rdquo;<br /> Sue-Ching Jou and Hsin-Ling Wu -&nbsp; &quot;Urban Restructuring and Neoliberal Urban Politics: 'Landing' the Mega-Projects in Taipei&rdquo;<br /> Jamie Peck and Nik Theodore - &quot;Recombinant workfare, across the Americas&rdquo; <br /> Bhuvaneswari Raman and Solomon Benjamin - &quot;Introduction to Contesting Spacialities in Globalized Terrains&quot;<br /> Bhuvaneswari Raman - &quot;Contested Spaciality and Locality Specific Networked-Non Compliance&quot;<br /> Solomon Benjamin, University of Toronto, &quot;Do Everyday Institutional contestations erode the neo-liberal Urban Reforms Agenda?&quot;<br /> Matthew Gandy -&nbsp; &quot;Landscapes of disaster: Water, modernity and urban fragmentation in Mumbai&rdquo;<br /> Anant Maringanti - &quot;Between the city and the slum&rdquo;<br /> Yildirim Senturk - &quot;The Public Cities against the World Cities: Constructing Alternative Public Spheres within Cities&rdquo;</div> &nbsp;</div> Type The nature or genre of the resource Autre global cities mégapole mondialisation néolibéralisme urbanisation ville mondiale world city Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
