With a group of young observers, camera and notebook in hand, he conducted pioneering studies of street life, pedestrian behavior, and city dynamics. City: Rediscovering the Center is the result of that research, a humane, often amusing view of what is staggeringly obvious about the urban environment but seemingly invisible to those responsible for planning it.<br /> <br /> Whyte uses time-lapse photography to chart the anatomy of metropolitan congestion. Why is traffic so badly distributed on city streets? Why do New Yorkers walk so fast—and jaywalk so incorrigibly? Why aren't there more collisions on the busiest walkways? Why do people who stop to talk gravitate to the center of the pedestrian traffic stream? Why do places designed primarily for security actually worsen it? Why are public restrooms disappearing? "The city is full of vexations," Whyte avers: "Steps too steep; doors too tough to open; ledges you cannot sit on. . . . It is difficult to design an urban space so maladroitly that people will not use it, but there are many such spaces." Yet Whyte finds encouragement in the widespread rediscovery of the city center. The future is not in the suburbs, he believes, but in that center. Like a Greek agora, the city must reassert its most ancient function as a place where people come together face-to-face.</div>  </div> <b> </b></div> <b>William H.

Or, if we think historically, we might envision steerage passengers, crowded shopping streets and fetid tenements, leafy boulevards and Victorian mansions. This book captures a different American city, a city epitomized by suburbs and freeways as well as high-rise downtowns. This city, the unglamourous place where most Americans through history have lived, is not the ideal city and does not even represent necessarily the kind of place where people should live. This city, where nearly all Americans today do live—sprawling, diffuse, varied—began in the nineteenth century. It is characterized by its nonvisible foundation, a political center around which its citizens have built the physical and institutional bases of modern transportation, welfare, and education.</div>  </div> The history of our cities is... the history of how they came to their corporate status, what they have done with this status, and how they have shaped themselves. Our cities are what we have made them. They will be what we make them. Not everyone shares evenly in the power to shape and make them, and this is a part of the story. The history of U.S. cities must show what makes them American, what underlies their diversity, and why they share more with the business corporation than they do with their historical, Old World, predecessors. And finally, the history of the U.S. city must show that along with the images of Manhattan's skyline, Chicago's shoreline, and San Francisco's bridges, the suburban tract carries in it a spirit that has characterized the New World city, even in the colonial period. All of these jumbled and contrasting images are the U.S. city, and none alone captures adequately the physical, cultural, and economic variety that their corporate identities have undergirded. They move, change, grow, decay, succeed, and fail, just as the American city itself.</div>  </div> The late <b>Eric H.

Finding the contemporary urban scene too complex to be captured by radical or conventional approaches, Kian Tajbakhsh offers a threefold, interdisciplinary approach linking agency, space, and structure. First, he says, urban identities cannot be understood through individualistic, communitarian, or class perspectives but rather through the shifting spectrum of cultural, political, and economic influences. Second, the layered, unfinished city spaces we inhabit and within which we create meaning are best represented not by the image of bounded physical spaces but rather by overlapping and shifting boundaries. And third, the macro forces shaping urban society include bureaucratic and governmental interventions not captured by a purely economic paradigm.<br /> <br /> Tajbakhsh examines these dimensions in the work of three major critical urban theorists of recent decades: Manuel Castells, David Harvey, and Ira Katznelson. He shows why the answers offered by Marxian urban theory to the questions of identity, space, and structure are unsatisfactory and why the perspectives of other intellectual traditions such as poststructuralism, feminism, Habermasian Critical Theory, and pragmatism can help us better understand the challenges facing contemporary cities.</div>  </div> <b>Kian Tajbakhsh</b> is Assistant Professor in the Urban Policy Analysis Department at the Robert J.

Typically the form of cities was cohesive, and public spaces were clearly defined because each building played a part in an ensemble. The individual structures on Kramgasse in Bern, Switzerland, were conceived in sympathy with their neighbors and in consideration of their role in defining an outdoor public room. The issue here is not whether these design gestures were spontaneous and purposeful or were required by public policy; rather, it is the common agreement that each building played an important part in continuously generating and regenerating urban places.<br /> <br /> In the twentieth century, urban form has derived more often from theory than from such a consensus. Contemporary European urban design theorists have tried to create a new consensus based on different attitudes toward urban form, attitudes often characterized by the terms functionalist, townscape, structuralist, and neo-rationalist (or rationalist). Our concern here is not the application of these attitudes in Europe but rather our belief that European urban design theory in the twentieth century has not provided a sound basis for American urban design. An appropriate urbanism for America must grow out of the inherent characteristics and conditions of American cities, not out of theories derived from an alien experience.<br /> <br /> Much recent urban development in the United States has been based on a pragmatic picking and choosing among European theories and precedents, with a few homegrown techniques thrown in. But the European theories are unconvincing in American contexts. Instead of the appliqué of imported ideas and homegrown methods, we need an urban design theory that is appropriate to American circumstances and allows architects, urban designers, and planners to develop a consensus about our own urban values.<br /> <br /> This book presents such a theory, which we call catalytic architecture. It describes the positive impact an individual urban building or project can have on subsequent projects and, ultimately, the form of a city. It encourages designers, planners, and policymakers to consider the chain-reactive potential of individual developments on civic growth and urban regeneration. It advocates design control as part of a catalytic strategy for urban design.</div>  </div>  </div> Type The nature or genre of the resource Ouvrage aménagement aménagement urbain Attoe Wayne développement urbain États-Unis forme urbaine Logan Donn United States https://crevilles.org/files/original/c7c608f1de00fe5eedb0087005f89b67.jpg e51c0b53ef7895b28790fc85e7b4582a Omeka Image File The metadata element set that was included in the `files_images` table in previous versions of Omeka.

Based on more than two years of ethnographic fieldwork among five thousand working-class families in the neighborhood of al-Zawyia al-Hamra, this study explores how these displaced residents have dealt with the stigma of public housing, the loss of their established community networks, and the diversity of the population in the new location. Until now, few anthropologists have delivered detailed case studies on this recent phenomenon. Ghannam fills this gap in scholarship with an illuminating analysis of urban engineering of populations in Cairo. Drawing on theories of practice, the study traces the various tactics and strategies employed by members of the relocated group to appropriate and transform the state's understanding of "modernity" and hegemonic construction of space. Informed by recent theories of globalization, Ghannam also shows how the growing importance of religious identity is but one of many contradictory ways that global trajectories mold the identities of the relocated residents. Remaking the Modern is a revealing ethnography of a working class community's struggle to appropriate modern facilities and confront the alienation and the dislocation brought on by national policies and the quest to globalize Cairo.</div>  </div> <b>Farha Ghannam</b> is Visiting Assistant Professor at Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania.</div>  </div> Type The nature or genre of the resource Ouvrage aménagement de l'espace anthropologie Caire Cairo déplacement de population ethnologie Ghannam Farha identité logement social mixité sociale mondialisation pauvreté politique du logement https://crevilles.org/files/original/a2c6b5f8d241f26a250ab5b87397c646.jpg baf7f521dae2e1790adbda6b6bf58e7f Omeka Image File The metadata element set that was included in the `files_images` table in previous versions of Omeka.

Using both statistical perspectives on urbanization and cultural representations of the city, Brower constructs a synthetic view of the remaking of urban Russia. He argues that the reformed municipalities succeeded in creating an embryonic civil society among the urban elite but failed to fashion a unified, orderly city. By the end of the century, the cities confronted social disorder of a magnitude that resembled latent civil war. Drawing on a wide range of archival and published sources, including census materials and reports from municipal leaders and tsarist officials, Brower offers a new approach to the social history of Russia. The author emphasizes the impact of the massive influx of migrants on the country's urban centers, whose presence dominated the social landscape of the city. He outlines the array of practices by which the migrant laborers adapted to urban living and stresses the cultural barriers that isolated them from the well-to-do urban population. Brower suggests that future scholarship should pay particular attention to the duality between the sweeping visions of social progress of the elite and the unique practices of the urban workforce. This contradiction, he argues, offers a key explanation for the social instability of imperial Russia in the closing decades of the nineteenth century.</div>  </div> The late <b>Daniel R.

The Work Group deals with “Frontiers and Identities”. The present volume is particularly concerned with exploring approaches to the relationship between cities as places of creation, perception and representation of identities and political and territorial organisms, both within the city and outside of it. <br /> <br /> In this volume the Work Group has decided to focus on cities as optimal entrées for understanding how people give meanings to the physical places where they live and work. At the same time, by emphasizing the links between individuals’ subjective experiences and their broader allegiances or belongings (political, ethnic, linguistic, religious, gender and so forth), the authors draw the city as a mirror that reflects the wider spaces and changing organisations that lie outside: hence the “regions” and the “nations” of the title.</div>  </div> <b>Contents : </b></div>  </div> Preface - Ann Katherine Isaacs, Guðmundur Halfdanarson<br /> Introduction - Luďa Klusáková, Laure Teulières<br /> Reading the City.

Si la tendance actuelle se maintient, 60 % de la population de la planète vivra en milieu urbain d’ici à 2030. Plus les villes grossissent, plus leur population pauvre grossit, elle aussi. Le chômage, la faim et la malnutrition sont monnaie courante. Dans la grande ville, où la plus grande partie du revenu sert à s’alimenter pour survivre, pouvoir se procurer des aliments sans devoir les acheter représente un atout. C’est pourquoi de plus en plus de gens tentent de cultiver un peu de nourriture afin de suppléer à une alimentation déficiente et à de maigres revenus. Or, les municipalités considèrent trop souvent l’agriculture urbaine comme un problème à éradiquer plutôt que comme un outil pouvant concourir à assurer la viabilité de la ville et de son environnement.<br /> <br /> En fait, l’agriculture se pratique en milieu urbain depuis fort longtemps. Un peu partout dans les pays en développement, les responsables municipaux se rendent comptent qu’une agriculture gérée convenablement peut véritablement contribuer à la sécurité alimentaire de la population. Elle peut aussi se traduire en des emplois et mettre à contribution les espaces vacants de la ville. Le présent ouvrage examine les recherches que le CRDI et ses partenaires, dont des gouvernements locaux, ont entreprises sur des questions entourant l’agriculture urbaine, en s’intéressant en particulier à l’influence que la recherche a exercée sur les politiques. Il y est fait état de l’implantation, en Afrique et en Amérique latine, de réseaux de villes voués à favoriser l’agriculture urbaine et à améliorer le sort des producteurs urbains. Il renferme par ailleurs des recommandations précises pour aider les responsables des politiques de tous les échelons à permettre à l’agriculture urbaine de donner sa pleine mesure. Le livre se termine sur une vision de l’avenir, c’est-à-dire une illustration de la façon dont des politiques permettant cela pourraient transformer les villes dans un avenir pas si éloigné.</div>  </div> <b>Cet ouvrage est également disponible en anglais, espagnol et arabe.</b></div>  </div> Type The nature or genre of the resource Ouvrage agriculture urbaine alimentation développement durable faim malnutrition milieu urbain Mougeot Luc pays en développement sécurité alimentaire ville viable https://crevilles.org/files/original/55a4ad0b26bc9c2394d7b89abace5793.jpg b623c0a6e55fcc9573a0d16513c22967 Omeka Image File The metadata element set that was included in the `files_images` table in previous versions of Omeka.

This book examines the transformations in the urban form of the Ottoman capital in the seventy-year period from 1838 to 1908... Like many non-Western cities of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Istanbul was exposed to powerful cultural and physical impositions coming from Europe. Nevertheless, its response to these external influences was unique, being shaped by a complex heritage and a noncolonial status. I hope to clarify the events and ideas that surrounded the foundation of the Westernization process, which, by giving a new orientation to the development of Istanbul's physical form, planted seeds for an evolution that continues to the present day.</div>  </div> <b>Zeynep Çelik </b>is a distinguished Professor in the School of Architecture at New Jersey Institute of Technology.</div>  </div>  </div>  </div> Type The nature or genre of the resource Ouvrage aménagement urbain Çelik Zeynep dix-neuvième siècle forme urbaine histoire de l'architecture histoire de l'urbanisme histoire urbaine Istanbul modernisation nineteenth century renouvellement urbain tissu urbain transport https://crevilles.org/files/original/7d93f977079908d9caad7b6065e996d4.jpg 87a7ea890a3d4346367388e1cf567bc4 Omeka Image File The metadata element set that was included in the `files_images` table in previous versions of Omeka.

The city planning profession in the United States arose from the urban reform movements of the 1890s and early years of this century. Here, in a volume commissioned to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the American Institute of Planners, the author examines the beginnings of urban planning and traces its gradual emergence as a guiding influence in all levels of government. The book is remarkably comprehensive and includes a wealth of detail gleaned from hundreds of original documents and extensive interviews with pioneers of the profession. Mr Scott describes the political movements, the persons and institutions, the civic crises, the legislative struggles, and the sometimes serious reverses that comprise the principal elements in the planning story; perhaps more importantly, he gives much attention to the intellectual history of planning.</div>  </div> The late <b>Mel Scott </b>was a planner, writer, lecturer and a research associate at the Institute of Governmental Studies, University of California, Berkeley.</div>  </div> Type The nature or genre of the resource Ouvrage aménagement urbain États-Unis histoire de l'urbanisme histoire urbaine politique urbaine Scott Mel twentieth century United States vingtième siècle https://crevilles.org/files/original/87f79804db5a7efc65bd6e4040b588dc.jpg 2e0e02ab4c4766a3ebcf47b83725357b Omeka Image File The metadata element set that was included in the `files_images` table in previous versions of Omeka.

L’avènement de la Région de Bruxelles-Capitale, en 1989, portait l’espoir que cesse cet urbanisme imposé d’en haut et que la ville ne subisse plus de saccages comme celui du quartier Nord. Avec l’annonce de l’arrivée du Train à grande vitesse (TGV) en gare du Midi, il a vite fallu déchanter. Une nouvelle fois, le « progrès » et le « développement international » ont suscité les convoitises immobilières et déclenché le "nettoyage social" d’un quartier populaire...<br /> <br /> Sur fond de crise du logement et de surproduction de bureaux, cette enquête dévoile comment le sort du quartier Midi s’est joué telle une partie de Monopoly, dans un combat opposant des investisseurs privés, une société ferroviaire métamorphosée en promoteur immobilier et des autorités publiques avides de recettes fiscales. Comment la Commune de Saint-Gilles et la Région bruxelloise, menées par un même homme (le socialiste Charles Picqué), ont transformé ce champ de bataille en véritable guerre d’usure… contre les habitants.<br /> <br /> Ce livre, qui propose de multiples entrées thématiques, mène une investigation approfondie sur l’un des plus grands fiascos urbanistiques de ces 20 dernières années en Belgique.

Because they are home to major infrastructure and highly concentrated populations, cities are also vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, such as rising sea levels, warmer temperatures and fiercer storms. At the same time, better urban planning and policies can reduce energy use and greenhouse gas emissions and improve the resilience of urban infrastructure to climate change, thus shaping future trends. <br /> <br /> This book shows how city and metropolitan regional governments working in tandem with national governments can change the way we think about responding to climate change. The chapters analyse: trends in urbanisation, economic growth, energy use and climate change; the economic benefits of climate action; the role of urban policies in reducing energy demand, improving resilience to climate change and complementing global climate policies; frameworks for multilevel governance of climate change including engagement with relevant stakeholders; and the contribution of cities to “green growth”, including the “greening” of fiscal policies, innovation and jobs. The book also explores policy tools and best practices from both OECD and some non-member countries. <br /> <br /> Cities and Climate Change reveals the importance of addressing climate change across all levels of government. Local involvement through “climate-conscious” urban planning and management can help achieve national climate goals and minimise tradeoffs between environmental and economic priorities at local levels. The book will be relevant to policy makers, researchers, and others with an interest in learning more about urbanisation and climate change policy.</div>  </div> Type The nature or genre of the resource Ouvrage changement climatique développement durable économie environnement gouvernance OECD ville durable
