Order without Design
Author: Alain Bertaud
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 0262550970
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 429
Book Description
An argument that operational urban planning can be improved by the application of the tools of urban economics to the design of regulations and infrastructure. Urban planning is a craft learned through practice. Planners make rapid decisions that have an immediate impact on the ground—the width of streets, the minimum size of land parcels, the heights of buildings. The language they use to describe their objectives is qualitative—“sustainable,” “livable,” “resilient”—often with no link to measurable outcomes. Urban economics, on the other hand, is a quantitative science, based on theories, models, and empirical evidence largely developed in academic settings. In this book, the eminent urban planner Alain Bertaud argues that applying the theories of urban economics to the practice of urban planning would greatly improve both the productivity of cities and the welfare of urban citizens. Bertaud explains that markets provide the indispensable mechanism for cities’ development. He cites the experience of cities without markets for land or labor in pre-reform China and Russia; this “urban planners’ dream” created inefficiencies and waste. Drawing on five decades of urban planning experience in forty cities around the world, Bertaud links cities’ productivity to the size of their labor markets; argues that the design of infrastructure and markets can complement each other; examines the spatial distribution of land prices and densities; stresses the importance of mobility and affordability; and critiques the land use regulations in a number of cities that aim at redesigning existing cities instead of just trying to alleviate clear negative externalities. Bertaud concludes by describing the new role that joint teams of urban planners and economists could play to improve the way cities are managed.

City of Order
Author: Michael Boudreau
Publisher: UBC Press
ISBN: 0774822074
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
Interwar Halifax was a city in flux, a place where citizens debated adopting new ideas and technologies but agreed on one thing – modernity was corrupting public morality and unleashing untold social problems on their fair city. In this context, citizens, policy makers, and officials turned to the criminal justice system to create a bulwark against further social dislocation. Officials modernized the city’s machinery of order – courts, prisons, and the police force – and placed greater emphasis on crime control, while residents supported tough-on-crime measures and attached little importance to rehabilitation. These initiatives gave birth to a constructed vision of a criminal class that singled out ethnic minorities, working-class men, and female and juvenile offenders as problem figures in the eternal quest for order. Michael Boudreau’s in-depth study of crime and culture in interwar Halifax, the first of its kind, shows how tough-on-crime measures can compound, rather than resolve, social inequalities and dislocations.

Author: Juanita De Barros
Publisher: McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP
ISBN: 9780773524552
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
The poor saw these public places as sites of play and livelihood. De Barros shows how these opposing views set the stage for a series of petty disputes and large-scale riots. By uncovering the popular cultural patterns that underlay much of this unrest, De Barros demonstrates both their place within a larger West Indian cultural paradigm and the emergence of a peculiarly Guianese ritual of protest."--BOOK JACKET.

New York City Becomes the Capital of the New World Order
Author: Apostle Frederick E. Franklin
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1491829214
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
This is the (33nd) thirty-second Book which we, F & S F Ministry for JESUS, have written. All of the books that we have written was a result of God giving us revelation (prophecy, words of knowledge and words of wisdom). After God would give us this revelation, He would tell us to write a book of it and reveal it to the world. This Book, New York City Becomes The Capital Of The New World Order, has likewise, been written after revelation from God and by direction from God to write it and reveal it to the world. In this Book we provide you with the prophecies that God gave us on December 2, 1999, with revelation that He has given us in the past. This provides a clear picture of the establishment of the New World Order and the dismantling of the New World Order. This is a very important Book. We are sure that your eyes will be opened to the future like never before. We show New York Citys role in New World Order. We show the United States role in the New World Order. We provide you with the name of the most important people in the New World Order. Much, very much more, we provide.
