Thesis (M.S.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 1988.Bibliography: leaves 90-91.
This research was undertaken, to understand the phenomenon of "unauthorised colonies" in relation to the city of Delhi, to which they belong. "Unauthorised Colonies" is the label given by the Delhi Development Authority (DDA), to the hundreds of residential colonies that have evolved in Delhi over the past twenty years, without DDA's authorisation and in complete disregard to the city's masterplan regulations. The research has been to discover and understand the hidden issues and underlying meanings of the various incidents in time that have shaped the evolution of unauthorised colonies and the city of Delhi. There has been no attempt at the start of this research to prove any predetermined issues or hypotheses. This investigation therefore, may be thought of as raising various issues as the exploration follows the evolution of these colonies through time. In the end it has been attempted to "tie" all the issues together · to present a picture of these colonies that is more complete and has a greater depth than the simplistic image presented by DDA's definition. The effort has been to present unauthorised colonies as an integral part of the overall city, from the point of view of the colony dwellers , a nd the dominant interest groups in Delhi . To explain the city's functioning as a condition of interdependence that exists between the authorised portions of Delhi and t h e unauthorised colonies, at levels that are not just physical but also political, social and economic.

Full textAbstract:
The broad purpose of In A City Like Delhi is to make an argument in favour of the positive link between spirituality and sustainability. Sustainability, at its core, requires an ethical commitment, and the thesis proposes that spirituality may be that vital means through which sustainability may be truly animated, in theory and in practice. The thesis is particularly preoccupied with considering the yet fully unrealised competence of spirituality to enrich the understanding and practise of sustainability in the urban space. To this end, it uses a very particular case study to make a modest exploration of such a conceptual association the city of Delhi.
The concept of sustainability, as articulated in the West, is primarily a secular notion. While international religious and spiritual organisations have taken up the sustainability challenge, the reverse is less true sustainability planning is rarely conducted in a dialogue with religious or spiritual institutions and resources. In this context the case study of an Indian megacity to examine the relationship between religion, spirituality, secularism and development, is particularly interesting. The thesis explores, as one example of the potential interface, how Hindu spirituality as interpreted by Mahatma Gandhi, may usefully inform a spiritual philosophy to enliven a sustainability consciousness in Delhi.
The theoretical speculations of the thesis are grounded in the local context by seeking the perspectives of twenty primary informants from Delhi who are all associated with various levels of planning and implementing development in the city. I specifically chose my interviewees from secular development backgrounds (rather than religious and spiritual representatives) because this would enrich critical understanding of how spirituality may be viewed within a secular sustainability discourse. I use their views on spirituality, sustainable development, and any affinities between the two notions to balance my own perspective, derived from both my research and my personal experience of the city of my birth. The interviews gave added depth to the environmental, economic and social challenges confronting the city of Delhi, which were already evident in the literature review. Additionally however, the interviews confirmed the hypothesis that sustainable development and spirituality together could have a productive, coherent and an even inseparable grounding union in Delhi and that spirituality may be vital in facilitating that essential shift in consciousness that a sustainable mindset requires. These findings are crucial to any study or strategy considering comprehensive sustainable development for Delhi.

Full textAbstract:
Built on the ruins of earlier cities, the Mughal Emperor Shahjahan founded Shahjahanabad in 1639. Cradling a fort, the city expended itself down the social/housing strata to a wall. This wall not only brought coherence to any one group but provided an interaction amongst them. These cohesive units formed neighborhoods called mohallahs, marked by religious, economic and social liaisons, their identity legitimizing the power of certain individuals and institutions. The Palace-Complex formed the pinnacle in this urban hierarchy. This thesis shows the importance of the Palace-Complex and how the British occupied it after the 1857 Sepoy Rebellion in an attempt to exercise control over the city.

New Delhi, the capital of the British Raj in India, forms with the Mughal walled city of Shahjahanabad, the core of a city that has grown tenfold in the forty years since Independence, from 700,000 in 1947, to 7.5 million today. Tremendous disparities characterize this core comprising of what was the 'native city' and the 'colonial city'. The foremost of these is that of density, which is about 350 persons per acre in Shahjahanabad compared to 20 to 25 persons per acre in colonial Delhi. This thesis questions the validity of this bipolarity and the continued existence of a suburban environment in the heart of the city through a series of design studies on the densification of the colonial city. It deals with urban form and its implications. While the stated goal of the Master Plan has been to achieve a more equitable distribution of densities in this core, the reasons for densification, who it is to benefit, and its formal expression as presented in urban design proposals for the area, are often contradictory. The thesis demonstrates an alternative approach that attempts to address these issues within the scope of a purely formal study. It draws on precedents of urban form that already exist in the context of Delhi : that of Shahjahanabad and the colonial city which contains within its suburban environment, traces of another urban tradition.

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation pursues three overarching themes. The first of these is empirical: to illuminate the actual functioning of the property market in Delhi. After reconstructing the pattern of depression and boom from 1920-40, I argue that these cycles shaped the nature of participation in the market. During the depression of the 1920s many indigenous financial firms came to rely on property rentals and sales. Alongside these, a nascent sector concentrating primarily in real estate came into existence. Compared to planned state intervention, most of Delhi’s urban fabric was created by private construction. Analysis of the state’s relationship to the property market is the second aim of the work. The colonial state both embraced and was constrained by the commodification of land. Though it was the largest landowner in the city, it did not leverage this position. Rather than construction, the state was happier to act on the market indirectly. One means of indirect action concerned forms representations of urban land as commodity. Leases, advertisements and other documents were crucial for its circulation. The strength of the state in the property market derived from its role as enforcer and repository of representations of commodified space. A third aim is to study the forms of struggle engendered by urban property. Struggles over commodification of urban land, when they took collective forms, did not necessarily splinter along class lines. In fact, subsidised housing emerged out of caste, class and nationalist struggles. Conversely, the commodification of land was at issue in struggles that were not ostensibly about property. For instance, this dissertation tracks its salience for understanding communal conflicts over urban shrines. Taken together, the three themes constitute a picture of the city in which forms of capital accumulation – particularly those relating to space – cannot be ignored.

Warsi, Sahil K. "Being and belonging in Delhi : Afghan individuals and communities in a global city." Thesis, SOAS, University of London, 2015. http://eprints.soas.ac.uk/22782/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis considers what it means to be and belong as Afghan in Delhi today. It argues that Afghan belonging in Delhi must be understood as inherently multiple and articulated at different scales, and that this multiplicity must be further considered with regard to the varying influence of different conceptions of belonging in migrants' everyday life. Chapters one and two present the thesis' methodological and theoretical framework, bringing together anthropological research on Afghanistan with work on personhood, ontology, and ethics. The subsequent four ethnographic chapters explore ideas of Afghan belonging in Delhi at the scales of state, individual, and community. To frame the argument, chapter three presents the state scale understanding of Afghan migrants as individuals belonging to an Afghan community rooted in the territory of Afghanistan, whose story of migration determines the legality of their presence in Delhi. Chapters four and five turn to the individual scale to respectively demonstrate how complex and varied trajectories of movement belie facile categorization of migrants as legal or illegal, and how they shape and reflect Afghan migrants' diverse affective and material ties to the city. Chapter six depicts how this diversity is also articulated at the scale of community through a comparison of two Afghan communities in the city. The ethnography illustrates how despite the fact that Afghan migrants conceive of and express multiple ways of being and belonging in Delhi, how they inhabit the city is contingent on their access to financial and social resources, and thus indicative of wider issues of belonging and urban citizenship in Delhi today. While contributing to the study of Afghan migration and urban life in India, the thesis also adds to broader discussions of personhood and relatedness by bringing together insights from anthropological research on ontology, ethics, and morality.

Cities grow and with it urban form, unique to each, keeps evolving. Delhi can be perceived as having a poly centric, poly-nodal, radial city structure and a circumferential and partly sectoral form. World over, cities have evolved from a complex relationship between numerous influencing factors. It can be argued that in present times, transport and technology are the two significant pre-cursors of change. The next decade in India is going to see massive interventions in urban areas with regard to infrastructure, especially those related to transportation. The city of Delhi is an appropriate case to examine in this regard as currently a mass rapid transport system is being introduced in the city. Delhi is a unique city as it is probably the only capital city in the world both in terms of its physical size and population it serves that relies only on buses for public transport. It is also a city which has grown rapidly post independence failing any formal planning interventions proposed by the subsequent master plans for its containment. The introduction of the new transit system being one of the biggest financial investments in the city post independence is seen as an opportunity to restructure the city to accommodate an increase in population of 10 million people and also to define future urbanization trends in the region. This thesis is an inquiry aimed at understanding as to how the advent of mass transit can be utilized by a city like Delhi to limit its sprawl and address changes in land use patterns. A comparative study of other world city regions encourages one to think that intensifying development along transit corridors and at nodes is one option which could lead to a more efficient distribution of people in the city of Delhi. The thesis also questions the nature of present planning framework for the city and suggests appropriate planning and policy adjustments to complement the pattern of development proposed in context with the opportunities presented by the advent of the new mass transit system.

Tsujita, Yuko. "Education, poverty and schooling : a study of Delhi slum dwellers." Thesis, University of Sussex, 2014. http://sro.sussex.ac.uk/id/eprint/49668/.
Full textAbstract:
Poverty reduction and Education for All (EFA) are important policy issues in many developing countries as they are both Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). As the existing literature suggests, education positively influences poverty reduction, while poverty, or low income, adversely affects the quality and quantity of education. Accordingly, if education fails to facilitate poverty reduction, the following generation's schooling is likely to be adversely affected, thus perpetuating a vicious education–poverty circle. It was against such a background, and employing a mixed methods approach to data collection and analysis, that this study investigated the relationship between education and multidimensional poverty at an individual as well as household level, and the influence of deprivation on children's education, in the context of the slum in Delhi, India. The thesis reveals that education – particularly primary and middle schooling – enhances the earnings of male slum dwellers in particular, the overwhelming majority of whom suffer from informality and instability of employment. It also emerges that education plays an important role in the ability to participate with confidence in the public sphere. At the household level, education proves to have a positive association with monetary poverty, but a higher level of education per se does not necessarily facilitate escape from non-monetary poverty. In such a nexus of poverty and education, the thesis found that household wealth in association with social group and migration status tends to be positively correlated with child schooling, education expenditure, and basic learning. There may be a chance of escaping poverty through education, but such a likelihood is limited for those households that are underprivileged in terms of caste and religion owing to slow progress in basic learning, as well as migrant households due to lack of access to schooling. The thesis concludes by proposing some education policies drawn from the major findings of the study that may be implemented in the Indian slum context.

Mathur, M. "Exploring the determinants of social gradient in oral health among adolescents living in the city of New Delhi." Thesis, University College London (University of London), 2014. http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/1400957/.
Full textAbstract:
The overall aim of this research study was to assess whether there are socioeconomic gradients in various oral health outcomes (caries experience, decayed teeth, traumatic dental injuries and self-rated oral health) of adolescents, 12-15 years of age living in the city of New Delhi, India and to assess the various material, psychosocial and behavioural factors influencing this gradient. Various studies conducted across the world have reported that children and adolescents belonging to lower socioeconomic groups compared to higher socioeconomic groups have poorer oral health status. This relationship is present in a stepwise manner across the entire spectrum of socioeconomic hierarchy commonly known as social gradient. Studies conducted in India conversely are inconclusive and provide conflicting evidence. No attempt has been made in assessing the role of psychosocial (social capital and social support), behavioural and material (standard of living) factors in affecting the socioeconomic gradients in oral health in India especially considering adolescents living in deprived neighbourhoods. The proposed study is an attempt to address this gap in the scientific literature. A cross sectional survey was conducted with a sample of 1386 adolescents living in 3 diverse residential areas of New Delhi (urban slums, resettlement colonies and middle/ upper middle class homes). A clinical examination was undertaken to assess the oral health status of the sample and an interviewer administered questionnaire was used to gather relevant behavioural and social data. Disparities in various oral health outcomes was found between adolescents from different residential areas living in New Delhi. Clear monotonic socioeconomic gradients were observed in caries experience and number of decayed teeth while a threshold effect was observed in dental trauma with adolscents from urban slums and resettlement colonies showing significantly higher levels of dental trauma in comparison to their middle class counterparts. No significant gradient was observed in poor self-rated oral health. Different material, psychosocial and behavioural factors had no significant impact on the observed gradients in various oral health outcomes showing that area of residence is a very strong predictor of oral health and there is a need to design policies which aims at improving health by taking action on the broader structural determinants of health.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis explores the role of expert-led policy processes in addressing water quality. It does so by drawing on the ‘peri-urban' as a setting which exemplifies contemporary social and environmental challenges associated with river and groundwater pollution, as well as the health and livelihood implications for the poorest citizens in peri-urban areas. The peri-urban area of Ghaziabad, on the outskirts of New Delhi, provides a good reference point for understanding those challenges, while India's environmental regulatory agency (the Central Pollution Control Board) demonstrates how policy experts influence such a setting by enacting their institutional role and mandate. The thesis examines the ways in which problems associated with deteriorating water quality in peri-urban areas are often neglected in expert-led policy processes, and the consequent implications for peri-urban poor communities. It argues that expert-driven policy approaches to addressing water quality are formulated almost exclusively on scientific grounds, while underlying ‘non-scientific' decisions and choices, emerging from actors operating at levels from policy framing to policy implementation, are not awarded the same importance, thus ignoring issues that pertain to the social, environmental and political implications of the problems. By drawing on qualitative research, the thesis focuses on two case studies. One examines the Central Pollution Control Board's framing of policy initiatives while the other follows the implementation of such policies in peri-urban Ghaziabad. The thesis demonstrates how the scale of monitoring water quality is heavily biased towards national rather than local level priorities. This leads to an understatement of important water quality problems that affect peri-urban areas in favour of large-scale analyses of pollution in river basins. This has the effect of understating important water quality problems that affect peri-urban areas in poorer localities such as villages within the Ghaziabad district. The centrality of technical discourses in the articulation of and response to water quality problems makes it difficult for non-technical perspectives (derived directly from those people who are exposed to pollution) to feed into formal decision-making. This research also identified the key influence of a number of actors (municipal engineers, public health officials and district magistrates) in shaping and implementing policy outcomes on the ground in local contexts (i.e. peri-urban areas), even though their roles are often not recognised formally. The thesis is original in its attempt to merge insights from policy studies and science technology studies (STS) and apply them to the domain of water quality, a field that has not traditionally been subjected to critical social science inquiry. It also unpacks ethnographically the Board's dual role as both a policy advisor and regulator, and further illustrates how the enactment of these roles can lead to contradictory outcomes on the ground, particularly for the poorest periurban citizens.

Full textAbstract:
Les politiques urbaines de « reconstruction » post-apartheid de ces dernières décennies n’ont pas permis de réduire les injustices spatiales du Gauteng et de Johannesburg en particulier. Sous l’impulsion des acteurs privés, les résidences fermées d’entrée de gamme, symbole de l’ascension sociale des classes moyennes, diffusent de nouvelles formes de relégation et de fragmentation qui questionnent fortement le lien social, l’étalement et la mobilité croissante. Le peu d’investigations menées sur cette ville « moyenne », qui se veut synonyme de progrès et de modernité, offre l’opportunité de mobiliser une réflexion nouvelle sur les interrelations qui existent entre production de la ville, pratiques et territoires. Loin d’être monolithique, le logement d’entrée de gamme s’est développé à travers maints arrangements institutionnels particuliers et géographiquement situés. Le rôle des acteurs privés impliqués dans la gouvernance urbaine, souvent méconnu et rarement étudié, est devenu la clé de voûte des transformations contemporaines de la ville. L’originalité de ce travail a été de révéler les principes de constitution de savoirs spécialisés et spatialisés, qui éclairent le processus de codification des pratiques et donc la naissance de l’urbanisme sécuritaire institutionnalisé au sein de la métropole.Le détour comparatif avec Delhi a été l’occasion de valider que ces résultats avaient une portée générale cumulable, tout en délocalisant le regardThe post-apartheid urban policies of the last decades aiming at “rebuilding” the nation, have not led to reducing spatial injustice in Gauteng, and Johannesburg in particular. Spurred on by private actors, bottom-of-the-range closed residences, which symbolise the upward social mobility of the middle class, spread new forms of relegation and fragmentation, thereby challenging social links, urban sprawl and growing mobility. The little research carried out on this “average” city, which is meant to be synonymous with progress and modernity, is an opportunity to develop new thoughts on existing interrelations between urban production, practices and territories.Far from being monolithic, bottom-of-the-range housing is being developed through many specific and geographically located institutional arrangements. The role played by private actors involved in urban governance, which is often largely unknown and rarely being studied, has become the keystone of the city’s contemporary transformations. The novelty behind this research work is that it reveals the principles of what constitutes specialised and spatialized expertise, thereby shedding light on the codification process of practices and, as such, the birth of institutionalised security town planning within the metropolis.Comparing Johannesburg with Delhi was an opportunity to validate the fact that these results could be significantly drawn concurrently, while studying two different sites

Full textAbstract:
Efforts to resolve environmental planning and decision-making conflicts usually focus on participant involvement, mutual understanding of the problem situation, evaluation criteria identification, data availability, and potential alternative solutions. However, as the alternatives become less distinct and participant values more diverse, intensified negotiations and more data are usually required for meaningful planning and decision-making. Consequently, questions such as "What collaborative spatial decision making design is best for a given context?" "How can the values and needs of stakeholders be integrated into the planning process?" and "How can we learn from decision making experiences and understanding of the past?" are crucial considerations. Answers to these questions can be developed around the analytic and discursive approaches that transform diffused subjective judgments into systematic consensus-oriented resolutions.This dissertation examines the above issues through the design, implementation, and assessment of the Collaborative Spatial Delphi (CSD) Methodology. The CSD methodology facilitates spatial thinking and discursive strategies to describe the complex social-technical dynamics associated with the knowledge-structuring-consensus nexus of the participation process. The CSD methodology describes this nexus by synthesizing research findings from knowledge management, focus group theory, systems theory, integrated assessment, visualization and exploratory analysis, and transformative learning all represented within a collaborative geographic information system (GIS) framework.
The CSD methodology was implemented in multiple contexts. Its use in two contexts - strategic planning and management of urban green spaces in Montreal (Canada); and priority setting for North American biodiversity conservation - are reported in detail in this dissertation. The summative feedbacks from all the CSD planning workshops help incrementally improve the design of the CSD process. This dissertation also reports on the design and use of questionnaire surveys to incorporate local realities into planning, as well as the development of an evaluation index to assess the face validity and effectiveness of the CSD process from the perspective of workshop participants.
The accumulated evidence from the CSD implementations suggests that many core issues exist across spatial problem solving situations. Thus, the design and specification of a core collaborative process model provides benefits for knowledge exchange. General systems theory was used to classify the core technical components of the collaborative GIS design, and soft systems theory was used to characterize the human activity dynamics. Object oriented principles enabled the generation of a flexible domain model, and the unified modelling language (UML) visually described the collaborative process. The CSD methodology is used as a proof of concept.
This dissertation contributes to knowledge in the general areas of Geography, Geographic information systems and science, and Environmental decision making. The specific contributions are threefold. First, the CSD provides a synthesis of multi-disciplinary theories and a tested tool for environmental problem solving. Second, the CSD facilitates a fusion of local and technical knowledge for more realistic consensus planning outcomes. Third, an empirical-theoretical visual formalism of the CSD allows for process knowledge standardization and sharing across problem solving situations.

Full textAbstract:
Malgré leurs divisions politiques, les Grecs reconnaissaient l’existence de sanctuaires qui leur étaient communs. Or, à côté de leurs fonctions religieuses, ces grands sanctuaires jouèrent aussi un rôle indéniable dans la politique internationale aux Ve et IVe siècles avant notre ère. En effet, les quatre plus grands, les sanctuaires de Delphes, de l’Isthme, de Némée et d’Olympie, organisaient des concours panhelléniques et recevaient des offrandes venues de tout le monde grec. Certes, les sanctuaires communs pouvaient aussi rassembler tout ou partie des Hellènes, dans le cadre de koina ou d’alliances militaires, mais ils étaient avant tout des lieux de mise en scène des rivalités entre les États grecs. C’est pourquoi ceux-ci cherchèrent à exercer un contrôle plus ou moins direct sur eux. Ainsi, lorsque le caractère commun du lieu sacré s’était traduit par la mise en place d’institutions, celles-ci pouvaient voir s’exprimer des rapports de force entre les différents membres. Surtout, en particulier dans le cas des sanctuaires se situant sur des confins, la volonté de maîtriser des sanctuaires communs pouvait donner lieu à des conflits mêlant politique et religion, le contrôle d’un sanctuaire étant alors la clé de l’hégémonie sur la région dont il était le centre cultuel. Néanmoins, les grands sanctuaires ne furent pas que des enjeux entre puissances : les oracles et les familles sacerdotales qui y étaient responsables du culte pouvaient incontestablement prendre position dans les luttes pour l’hégémonie en Grèce. De plus, ces sanctuaires pouvaient parfois servir d’interfaces entre la civilisation hellénique et les cultures voisines (Perses, Étrusques, Libyens…)Despite their political divisions, Greeks knew the existence of sanctuaries who were common to them. However, in addition to their religious functions, these great sanctuaries played too an undeniable in international policy in the 5th and 4th centuries BC. The four greatest sanctuaries (Delphi, Isthmia, Nemea and Olympia) organized panhellenic games and received consecrations from all the Greek world. Moreover, common sanctuaries could gather all the Hellenes or a part of them in koina or military alliances, but they were above all places for rivalries between Greek states. That is why these tried to control them more or less directly. Thus, when the common characteristics of the sacred place had resulted in specific institutions, these could be the scene of conflicts between different protagonists. Above all, particularly with sanctuaries on the borders, the will of control of great sanctuaries coul result in both political and religious wars. The control of a sanctuary was then the key of the hegemony on the country of which it was the religious center. Nevertheless, great sanctuaries were not only stakes between powers: oracles and priestly families who were in charge of the temple could unquestionably intervene in struggles for hegemony in Greece. Moreover, these sanctuaries could sometimes be places of contact between Hellenic civilization and neighbouring cultures (Persians, Etruscans, Libyans, etc.)

AGGARWAL, VARUN. "DEVELOPMENT OF FLOOD FORECASTING SYSTEM FOR DELHI CITY." Thesis, 2022. http://dspace.dtu.ac.in:8080/jspui/handle/repository/19313.
Full textAbstract:
Floods annually affect a large population of Indian population during the monsoon months from June to September every year. Flooding leads to the disruption in the socio-economic conditions and causes enormous damage to infrastructure and agriculture.without proper mechanism to predict the future conditions, it becomes very difficult for the authorities and the rescue teams to help relocate people to safer place and prevent loss of life and property. Also frequent and severe floods may affect the hydraulic structures, roads and nearby building as well. It may become the need of the hour. for that accurate prediction of input data such as rainfall and potential evapotranspiration data is very much important. India has already worked over the ensemble prediction of rainfall data. The only challenge now lies in the ensemble prediction of streamflow data in different channels and at different gauge points. once this mechanism gets established, then it would be very easy for a person to design future hydraulic projects and may select the factor of safety in the design appropriately. This may help in saving the project cost to a very great extent. Also it will help engineers to design the master plan of a particular city but checking of the extent of spread of the future city near the river banks and may also help in clearing of illegal encroachments along the river beds which may become frequently flooded in the future.

Kaicker, Abhishek. "Unquiet City: Making and Unmaking Politics in Mughal Delhi, 1707-39." Thesis, 2014. https://doi.org/10.7916/D82R3PRH.
Full textAbstract:
This dissertation is a study of the elaborations of the cultures of politics in the Mughal capital of Shahajahanabad - modern day Delhi - from the death of the emperor Aurangzeb in 1707 to the invasion of the Iranian warlord Nadir Shah in 1739. While this period has frequently been imagined as one of imperial decline and political failure, this dissertation argues that these years of tumult saw instead the transformation of elite politics and the development of a language of popular politics within the space of the Mughal capital. The transformation of politics as practiced by Mughal elites became dramatically evident in the second decade of the eighteenth century, in which two reigning emperors were violently removed from the throne. Through a close examination of the admonitory historical texts which describe these events, this dissertation suggests that such transgressive actions reflected a debate among the Mughal elite about the proper role of the emperor in an empire which had become unprecedentedly bureaucratic and routinized in its administration. Yet speculation about the place of the emperor did not remain the affair of the empire's elites who saw themselves as the traditional guardians of the realm. For now, an unlikely new party began to intervene ever more assertively in matters that had been considered the preserve of the empire's ruling nobility. This was the people itself, an entity that agitated vociferously in support or in criticism of elite acts of governance. In doing so, the people produced a new language of popular politics which directly addressed the powers-that-be. Such a popular politics was produced within, and enacted upon the stage of the Mughal capital, itself built as a representation of the virtues of Mughal imperium. The emergence of the people as an increasingly visible mass in the city is the subject of the first chapter. The second, third and fourth chapters then turn to an examination of the dramatic convulsions of elite politics which caused the bodies of slaughtered princes to be paraded in the thoroughfares of the Mughal city. Chapter four ends with a study of the popular response to one such incident, the deposition of the Emperor Farrukh Siyar in 1719, arguing that the event marks an instance of the city's masses making an explicit intervention in the politics of the imperial elite. Chapter five considers the means of communication by which such political solidarities were forged, arguing that poetry in particular was a powerful form of social communication which might activate political solidarities among the people of the city. Chapters six and seven offer a detailed account of other instances of popular political activity, focusing particularly on the Shoe-sellers' riot of 1729. Chapter eight turns to the invasion of Nadir Shah in 1739, arguing that the resistance to his occupation of Delhi and subsequent events mark the limits of possibility of such politics. The conclusion examines the divergent trajectories of elite and popular politics through the end of the empire and the rise of the colonial state in the subcontinent.

Full textAbstract:
The ongoing debate within the Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) community over the relative importance of 'appropriate' design standards, the 'right' institutional setup and 'political will' to the success of projects obscures the larger importance of the planning process. Political leadership, institutions and design are important conditions that must be considered in the context of one another, but they are also conditions that will change and be influenced by the planning process. Drawing on case studies of the Janmarg BRT in Ahmedabad, and the Delhi BRT in India, I demonstrate the indirect and direct role of the planning process in influencing the outcome of BRT projects.
My dissertation argues that planners too often treat the planning process as a one-dimensional sequence of steps in which design, institutions and leadership provide an unchanging framework in which planning proceeds. Planners however, can assert more influence over outcomes by re-framing the process as a three dimensional activity that considers not just the content and sequencing of the steps, but also requires decisions concerning approach (i.e. strategy and tactics) and timing (i.e. both moment of action and duration). This broader three-dimensional understanding of the planning process can be used to reshape design, institutions and leadership. A well-designed planning process has the potential to overcome institutional and design weaknesses and build political support leading to more viable and sustainable BRT systems.

Kaohsiung City Government enabled the citizen service hotline, 1999 Kaohsiung Know-It-All, in April, 2008. However, the service satisfaction of the information center achieving the efficiency was the primary issue for the Government. For this reason, this study tended to analyze the service satisfaction with the citizen service hotline, 1999 Kaohsiung Know-It-All, with the following research purposes. (1) With expert Delphi, a satisfaction model for measuring 1999 Kaohsiung Know-It-All was established. (2) The satisfaction and the questions related to the citizen service hotline, 1999 Kaohsiung Know-It-All, were discussed. (3) The research outcomes and suggestions were provided for the relevant administrative organizations. Having twice questionnaire surveys with Delphi, the opinions of the original 11 district chiefs were integrated and, from different aspects, discussed the correlations among the dimensions in-depth. In terms of satisfaction, 33 chiefs were collected the questionnaires for descriptive and inferential statistics analyses . Total ten measurements were concluded with Delphi and were further divided into the dimensions of Management of the authority and Hotline personnel. Having twice W test with Kendall coefficient, the statistical analyses appeared null hypotheses refusal, presenting that the expert opinions on the satisfaction with 1999 Know-It-All achieved certain consistency. Furthermore, the statistical analyses in this study proved that the overall satisfaction appeared 73.20, the effects of satisfaction showed the importance of Management of the authority, and different districts appeared effects on the satisfaction with Management of the authority. The results were different from the one proceeded by the Research, Development, and Evaluation Commission in Kaohsiung City Government toward 1999 Kaohsiung Know-It-All, which reached 80. The governors might be blinded by fake high satisfaction and affected the judgment on correct policies. This study not only proposed the related research outcomes, but also provided the governors and the future researchers with research reference.

According to a UN report (2010), the world’s current ecosystems are on the brink of collapse and the genetic diversity of corps are on a decline, leading to the extinction of sixty animal species since 2000. Despite extreme climate, global warming, rising sea levels, a shortage of energy resources, and other issues in the 21st century, mankind continues to persist on land and urban development. However, reflection and review, the development of single buildings has gradually undergone expansion towards the direction of eco-community and eco-city, with hopes of creating an overall living environment that takes into account comfort, energy conservation, and ecological sustainability. This study covers: history of urban planning theory, basic concept of eco-city, and Fuzzy Delphi Theory. The basic concept of urban planning includes: eco-city, sustainable-development, transport-oriented development (TOD), and other global competition oriented thinking; the basic concept of eco-city involves the integration of city, man and nature through the overall design and planning of ecological values, emphasizing the relationship among three aspects, namely, social justice, environmental conservation, and economic development. As for the research framework, the research motivation and purposes were clarified to establish research methods and contents. Then, through an insight into contemporary urban issues, relevant research analysis, and analysis of domestic and foreign eco-city cases, the ecological indictors were developed. The expert questionnaire results obtained using the Fuzzy Delphi Method were then adopted to clearly understand the related issues of eco-city which are required to be strengthened. Finally, conclusions and recommendations were put forth. In terms of Taiwan’s eco-city planning promotion, this study will enable planners to correctly understand the eco-city strategic direction, thereby more efficiently promoting the creation of an eco-city.

Full textAbstract:
Macroeconomic competition between regions and countries has intensified dramatically
in recent years, and as a result, selection of a favourable location and organisation of a
logistics node plays an important role in determining a region’s ability to participate in
emergent globalisation opportunities. Global connectivity of an area and its related
industries, together with their ability to retain and further develop a ‘competitive
advantage’, requires a significant review of the way in which a region interfaces with
the rest of the world.
The Logistics City-Cluster concept, which is one of the latest manifestations of a
logistics node, is believed to be a suitable strategy to address these changes.
However, whilst the Logistics City-Cluster is accepted by industry as a viable and
unique concept, the nature of composition, characteristics and impact is still
fragmented and very limited. The continued growth of this new strategy has made it
imperative to develop a coherent knowledge base, ensuring future orderly
development. Hence, this research was twofold: first, it sought to contribute to the
theoretical knowledge of the common enabling elements of a Logistics City-Cluster and
of their core influential factors; and secondly to explore the underlying assumptions that
sustainable regional growth can be provided by such a concept.

ABSTRACT Since the beginning of the 21st century, with the continuous progress of science and technology, hospital information systems have been developed rapidly. In the process of globalization, medical information system is regarded as an essential information system and has been recognized as an international standard needed to be applied in all countries. It has been emphasized the importance of medical information development in the 12th and 13th Five-Year Plan for the National Economic and Social Development of the People's Republic of China. However, there are also many obstacles in the development of medical information in China. We are using Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province as an example scenario, to analyze the current situation, problems, prospects and possible impacts of the deployment and promotion of medical information systems in Ningbo China. Through the literature, we explored the medical information development in countries such as Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, India, and other countries in the Asia-Pacific region, and learn from the experience of developed countries such as USA. We analyzed the current policies, status, and development trends of their medical information. We considered the current situation of China and referred lots of literature in the Asia-Pacific region. Based on our conclusion, we formulated a long-term plan for the future development of medical information in China. This study collected many literatures regarding medical informatics from academic journals and government reports in the Asia Pacific region. In addition to the literature study, we also referred to some important countries in Asia Pacific region for which have high development of medical information systems. References and supplements are also obtained from the government websites for public health policy. Through the interviews of experts in various fields, we analyzed the current situation, problems and challenges of the development in medical information systems for the Asia-Pacific region and for Ningbo. By using the Delphi method, we summarized the collusions of the experts to formulate recommendations. Finally, after analyzed the history and development of medical information systems in the Asia-Pacific region and combined with the suggestions from the Delphi method, we conclude the following three working items which are proposed to Ningbo city: 1. Using Electronic Medical Records with medical information standards in the systems, such as: Continuity Care Records, Personal Health Records, Medical Decision-Making and Clinical Research. 2. Establishing data exchange system with privacy regulations, data security and protection applying on storage and applications. 3. Using big data technologies in healthcare data Analysis and processing. Cooperating with the international community to improve the quality of medical services of Ningbo City.

Due the differences in developmental needs of various places and the objectives and goals of promotion of community groups, in general, community education can be divided into short-term adult education and education of expertise of special properties, such as traditional crafts education, short-term cultivation education for the second expertise, and employment counseling. Community education not only enables community residents of all ages to use leisure to learn the second expertise, cultivate interest, and engage in lifelong learning, but also is beneficial to the promotion of harmonious development of the entire community. Hunie Humanity Association, Kaohsiung City has promoted oil painting for 3 years, which has won the recognition of most of the residents and has been supported and sponsored by all walks of life. In addition, the age of residents participating in community oil painting education ranges from 5 to 70. The age distribution is wide, which reflects an interesting, peaceful, and unique learning phenomenon where learners meet their own needs. Moreover, full-time amateur oil painting teachers are responsible for teaching learners. The residents participating in oil painting education will hold an annual joint exhibition of works, as well as publish painting album. The joint exhibition of Hunei District has become an important annual activity. Furthermore, the development of amateur oil painting education has also become the local characteristic of Hunei District.The amateur oil painting education of Hunei District has been promoted for 3 years, and the residents have identified themselves with it and enjoyed it. Besides, the effectiveness is great. However, the differences in age and basic learning ability of residents participating in the learning are significant, and the number of hours of class and number of teachers giving instructions are limited. Therefore, the quality of works displayed in annual achievement exhibition varies a lot. Therefore, due to the reasons above, this study intends to use the expert group decision-making skills of Delphi method and the idea of simple arts and joint learning of the elderly and children, to develop a series of amateur oil painting courses suitable for Hunei District to facilitate the improvement of effectiveness of development of amateur oil painting education of residents in Hunei District.

In the 1970s, in order to mitigate the impact of the oil crisis, Taiwan adopted the“expand public construction” program to provide support for the growth of foreign trade. At the same time, Taipei City also built a large number of residential apartments due to economic restructuring. The oil crisis, as well as meeting the housing needs of the time, but also due to the "expanded public construction" and the large number of residential construction needs, the rivers and sands in Taiwan island were exhausted. Relevant materials to regulate, indirectly making a small number of construction companies to fight for the time. Changing to sea sand as a concrete aggregate has become the main reason for the existence of many sand houses (chloride) in Taipei. In recent years, the Taipei City Government has been trying to encourage the removal and reconstruction of sea sand households through urban renewal. However, in view of all laws and regulations, no actual response measures have yet been put forward for sea sand (chloride) houses. At this stage, the Taipei City Government still has a number of potential sea-sand housing estates other than the existing 2,640 sea sand houses. These phenomena not only make the urban space potentially dangerous buildings, but also make the residents of the sea sand (chloride) houses fear all day long. In view of this, the study is aimed at the study of the difficulties of urban renewal for the reconstruction of the sea sand houses. The research results are expected to improve the reconstruction efficiency of sea sand (chloride) house and to improve the safety of the urban environment and safeguard the rights of the people.This study focuses on urban renewal strategy of chloride building in Taipei City. In order to establish the theoretical basis and factors for the study, this paper analyzes three aspects of literature review; such as chloride building, urban renewal, and research methods. Subsequently, Delphi’s expert questionnaire was designed, validity and reliability tests of the questionnaire were conducted. Twelve construction officials and related experts responded to the survey and questionnaires. Questionnaires were collected and fuzzy theory used to calculate and obtain results. A consensus was reached on the urban renewal strategy and it was learned that there were twenty-one factors for the urban renewal strategy of chloride building. According to fuzzy Delphi method given by the experts, the results and the weighted values are as follows:1. In the "System" section of the project, experts believe that the emphasis on participation in advocacy, establishment of transformation systems, supervision and management, etc., is no longer sufficient to meet the current status of applying for urban renewal in chloride building for the residents of chloride building 2. With regard to the “rewards” requirement, the expert body should pay more attention to the way in which rewards should be used to encourage departments to conduct urban renewal for chloride building.3. In the "Public Interest" requirement, experts believe that in addition to focusing on the establishment of multiple public interests, it should be considered that the city should be organic.4. In the “Personal Benefits” section, experts believe that residents of chloride building should pay for relocation expenses when they apply for urban renewal, and the number and space of residents of the chloride building household when planning must be met.Based on the analysis of results, the study speculated that experts believed that at this stage, policies should promote a more rapid rights transformation system for the promotion of urban renewal and reconstruction of chloride building, as well as a sound supervision and management mechanism. At the same time, they should establish benefits that can simultaneously satisfy the needs of residents and developers of chloride building estates. The incentive measures will speed up the reconstruction of the urban renewal of the chloride building estate. In addition, if chloride building estates are redeveloped during urban renewal, their planning should not only create multiple public interests but also be consistent with urban functions. Finally, the main key to the success of the urban renewal project is to enable the residents of the chloride building to obtain the original benefits and reduce the burden of relocation.

Kaohsiung is a marine capital and part of its harbors provides a significant location for yacht manufacturing. In recent years, more people have been enjoying yachting activities on the ocean, but there are only two fishing ports: Gushan and Cijin, partly open for yachts to anchor. Due to the insufficient anchoring space in the Kaohsiung region, there is growing demand to develop a yacht harbor. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to consider how to transform a fishing port into a yacht harbor so that the marine tourism development in Kaohsiung can be improved. The study objects were Fengbito Fishing Port and Gushan Fishing Port. Literature analysis was used in cooperation with consultations carried out by experts, in order to evaluate the possibilities and the initial criteria. Delphi and AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) methods were applied in constructing the evaluation models. As a result, four evaluation structures and fourteen evaluation criteria, as well as the relative weight values collected from the evaluation projects, were acquired. After the analysis was completed, the conclusions showed that based on the port condition: 0.318 scores were achieved for the suitability of evaluation strategy; 0.255 for the operation management; 0.241 for the participation of benefit relation; and 0.186 for the environmental facilities. Furthermore, by analyzing the evaluation criteria, the results revealed that 0.638 scores were given to Gushan Fishing Port as a more suitable yacht harbor than Fengbito Fishing Port, for which only 0.362 scores were received. The researcher offered proposals to the relevant authority regarding the transformation of a fishing port into a yacht harbor.
