Book Description
Relativement à l'essor d'un urbanisme, tantôt qualifié de durable, tantôt d'écologique par la littérature scientifique, cette thèse interroge les évolutions du rapport à la nature en contexte urbain à travers les pratiques et les représentations sociales des acteurs d'un projet d'aménagement. La recherche menée entre 2011 et 2015 cible le programme de reconversion d'une friche industrielle urbaine en écoquartier, situé sur le versant nord-est de la métropole lilloise, à partir d'une enquête qualitative mobilisant observations ethnographiques, entretiens semi-directifs et analyse de la littérature afférente (grise, législative et réglementaire). Le projet urbain, considéré ici comme un instrument de l'action publique, constitue un analyseur privilégié de l'évolution des politiques de la nature en milieu urbain. Le questionnement guidant cette recherche est le suivant : quelles formes de natures sont produites dans un projet urbain qualifié de durable par ses initiateurs, selon quelles modalités décisionnelles et de gouvernance effectives, et sur la base de quel paradigme socio-culturel ? L'analyse est conduite à l'aide d'une double perspective théorique, croisant socio-anthropologie de l'environnement et de l'action publique, et faisant plus spécifiquement dialoguer anthropologie de la nature et analyse cognitive des politiques publiques. Nous démontrons que malgré la persistance d'une conception utilitariste de l'environnement, les évolutions actuelles de l'urbanisme, entendu dans un sens large, préfigurent une mutation de la place accordée de la nature dans la ville. De façon plus générale s'esquisse ainsi une dissolution progressive de la césure ville-nature.

Précis of the Lectures on Architecture
Author: Jean-Nicolas-Louis Durand
Publisher: Getty Publications
ISBN: 0892365803
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 363
Book Description
Jean-Nicolas-Louis Durand (1760–1834) regarded the Précis of the Lectures on Architecture (1802–5) and its companion volume, the Graphic Portion (1821), as both a basic course for future civil engineers and a treatise. Focusing the practice of architecture on utilitarian and economic values, he assailed the rationale behind classical architectural training: beauty, proportionality, and symbolism. His formal systematization of plans, elevations, and sections transformed architectural design into a selective modular typology in which symmetry and simple geometrical forms prevailed. His emphasis on pragmatic values, to the exclusion of metaphysical concerns, represented architecture as a closed system that subjected its own formal language to logical processes. Now published in English for the first time, the Précis and the Graphic Portion are classics of architectural education.

Languages : en
Pages : 124
Book Description
Festivities such as those exalting the court of Louis XIV, the celebration of James II's London coronation, and the commemoration of the peace celebrations of 1749 at The Hague culminated in dazzling pyrotechnical displays. These were in turn reproduced as prints, paintings, and narrative descriptions. This unique book examines the propagandistic and rhetorical functions these printed records came to serve as vehicles of aesthetic, cultural, and emotional significance.

Social Innovations in the Urban Context
Author: Taco Brandsen
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319215515
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 309
Book Description
This book addresses the practice of social innovation, which is currently very much in the public eye. New ideas and approaches are needed to tackle the severe and wicked problems with which contemporary societies are struggling. Especially in times of economic crisis, social innovation is regarded as one of the crucial elements needed to move forward. Our knowledge of its dynamics has significantly progressed, thanks to an abundance of studies on social innovation both general and sector-specific. However, despite the valuable research conducted over the past years, the systematic analysis of social innovation is still contested and incomplete. The questions asked in the book will be the following: 1. What is the nature of social innovations? 2.What patterns can be identified in social innovations emerging at the local level? 3.How is the emergence and spread of social innovations related to urban governance? More precisely, which conditions and arrangements facilitate and hinders social innovation? We explore these questions using different types of data and methods, and studying different contexts. In particular, we focus on innovations that aim at solving problems of the young unemployed, single parents and migrants. This analysis is based on original research carried out in the period 2010-2013 in the framework of a European project with a specific empirical research strategy. Research was carried out in 20 cities in 10 different European countries.

Guidance for CITES Scientific Authorities
Author:
Publisher: IUCN
ISBN: 283170684X
Category : Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora
Languages : en
Pages : 12
Book Description
Use of and trade in wildlife is a fact of life for human society around the globe. Article IV of the CITES Convention requires that exporting countries restrict trade in Appendix II species to levels that are not detrimental either to species? survival, or to their role within the ecosystems in which they occur (known as the ?non-detriment finding?). Based on two workshops convened by IUCN to develop some pragmatic assistance for Scientific Authorities, this publication presents the background to the development of the non-detriment finding checklist and explains how the checklist itself is designed to work, in the hope that Scientific Authority staff will take and develop the parts of the approach that they find useful.

Learning from the Slums for the Development of Emerging Cities
Author: Jean-Claude Bolay
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319317946
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
This book deals with slums as a specific question and a central focus in urban planning. It radically reverses the official version of the history of world cities as narrated during decades: slums are not at the margin of the contemporary process of urbanization; they are an integral part of it. Taking slums as its central focus and regarding them as symptomatic of the ongoing transformations of the city, the book moves to the very heart of the problem in urban planning. The book presents 16 case studies that form the basis for a theory of the slum and a concrete development manual for the slum. The interdisciplinary approach to analysing slums presented in this volume enables researchers to look at social and economic dimensions as well as at the constructive and spatial aspects of slums. Both at the scientific and the pedagogical level, it allows one to recognize the efforts of the slum’s residents, key players in the past, and present development of their neighborhoods, and to challenge public and private stakeholders on priorities decided in urban planning, and their mismatches when compared to the findings of experts and the demands of users. Whether one is a planner, an architect, a developer or simply an inhabitant of an emerging city, the presence of slums in one’s environment – at the same time central and nonetheless incongruous – makes a person ask questions. Today, it is out of the question to be satisfied with the assumption of the marginality of slums, or of the incongruous nature of their existence. Slums are now fully part of the urban landscape, contributing to the identity and the urbanism of cities and their stakeholders.
