Abstract:

Il volume, che raccoglie riflessioni intorno al tema della città, intesa come campo di sperimentazione, traccia un panorama aggiornato della ricerca dottorale e post-dottorale in Tecnologia dell’Architettura, da cui traspare la volontà di offrire spunti teorici di ampio respiro e, contemporaneamente, testimoniare una vasta gamma di applicazioni specialistiche. Nell’approccio ambientale, che accoglie i suggerimenti dei territori valorizzandone la "cultura materiale", appare il tratto comune sul quale sono impostate molte delle tematiche di ricerca qui esposte. The book, that gathers reflections on the theme of the city, intended as field of experimentation, gives an updated panorama of the doctoral (PhD) and postdoctoral research in Architectural Technology, and offers ample theoretical insights as well as a large collection of specialized applications. The environmental approach, that welcomes suggestions from the surrounding areas, highlighting the "material culture", shows the common traits that are present in many of the research themes here exposed.

Abstract:

“Transforming Glasgow is designed to become an essential book for academics, students, and urban practitioners. The book explores how the city of Glasgow is coming to terms with its post-industrial status and the challenges it still faces to reposition itself as an economically competitive and socially just modern city. The ways in which Glasgow is navigating its transition from a de-industrial to a post-industrial city and beyond will be critically examined through 14 thematic chapters along with an introduction and conclusion. The chapters cover the fundamental elements of urban transformation including health, housing, migration, transport, the built environment, culture, sustainability, community development, governance, and economic development, with attention to the transformation of Glasgow as a place and the impacts on people in the city. In so doing Transforming Glasgow seeks to question what comprises a post-industrial city and the extent to which Glasgow is moving beyond characterisation as a post-industrial city.”

Eaton, Kent. Policy Regime Juxtaposition in Ecuador. Oxford University Press, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198800576.003.0004.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter examines Ecuador as a case of policy regime juxtaposition, marked by the success of the first type of subnational policy challenge and the failure of the second. With respect to the first challenge, two dynamic mayors on the right of the political spectrum—León Febres Cordero (1992–2000) and Jaime Nebot (2000–18)—were able to design, build, and consolidate a distinctly neoliberal model in the critical port city of Guayaquil. Thanks to high levels of administrative capacity and strong internal coalitions, the architects of this model subsequently managed to defend it in the face of repeated assaults after 2006 by leftist President Rafael Correa. While the mayor of Guayaquil has managed to defend its neoliberal policy regime, he and his allies have been unable to moderate the President’s statist project at the national level owing to Guayaquil’s declining structural leverage and the absence of external coalitions with other like-minded subnational officials.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter examines how Sinophone writers from PRC, Taiwan, and Hong Kong compose their Beijing narratives to articulate their anxiety and desire, frustrated and fluid subjectivities. Liang Shiqiu a Beijing native, Taipei dweller, literary guru, and sophisticated connoisseur of fine cuisine, writes about Beijing cuisine to evoke emotional affiliation, gastronomic nostalgia, and imagined reunion. Both originally from Taiwan, Lin Haiyin romanticizes her memory of the south side of Beijing from an innocent girl’s perspective, while Zhong Lihe sharply criticizes the inferior and filthy life of Beijing’s social underclass and paints a bleak urban picture in his disillusioning discovery of the old capital during the Chinese Civil War. Hong Kong émigré writer Jin Yong intertwines literary topography and martial-arts fantasy, inscribes post-loyalist attachments and detachments onto the city, and suggests a hybrid and flexible identity, formed in the chivalric gestures of intervening in core political urban settings and fleeing to the margins and frontiers. In the shadow of World Wars and Cold War, a dislocated and relocated Beijing appears in the border-crossing diasporic writing and Sinophone postmemory.

Abstract:

What is a project? How is it organized? Projects: A Very Short Introduction looks at how projects have developed since the industrial revolution to create the human-built world in which we live, work, and play. Considering some of our greatest endeavours—such as the Erie Canal, Apollo Moon landing, and Chinese eco-city projects—it identifies how projects are organized and managed to design and produce large and complex systems, cope with fast changing conditions, and deal with the immense uncertainties required to create breakthrough innovations in products and services. It concludes by considering how projects could be organized to address the challenges facing the post-industrial society of the 21st century.

Abstract:

The aim of this book has been to evaluate the relationship between Britain’s financial sector, based in the City of London, and the social democratic economic strategy of post-war Britain. The central argument presented in the book was that changes to the City during the 1960s and 1970s undermined a number of the key post-war social democratic techniques designed to sustain and develop a modern industrial economy. Financial institutionalization weakened the state’s ability to influence investment, and the labour movement was unable successfully to integrate the institutionalized funds within a renewed social democratic economic agenda. The post-war settlement in banking came under strain in the 1960s as new banking and credit institutions developed that the state struggled to manage. This was exacerbated by the decision to introduce competition among the clearing banks in 1971, which further weakened the state’s capacity to control the provision and allocation of credit to the real economy. The resurrection of an unregulated global capital market, centred on London, overwhelmed the capacity of the state to pursue domestic-focused macroeconomic policies—a problem worsened by the concurrent collapse of the Bretton Woods international monetary system. Against this background, the fundamental social democratic assumption that national prosperity could be achieved only through industry-led growth and modernization was undermined by an effective campaign to reconceptualize Britain as a fundamentally financial and commercial nation with the City of London at its heart....

Abstract:

After Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans and the surrounding region in 2005, the city debated whether to press on with Mardi Gras or cancel the parades. Ultimately, they decided to proceed. New Orleans’s recovery certainly has resulted from a complex of factors, but the city’s unique cultural life—perhaps its greatest capital—has been instrumental in bringing the city back from the brink of extinction. Voicing a civic fervor, local writer Chris Rose spoke for the importance of Carnival when he argued to carry on with the celebration of Mardi Gras following Katrina: “We are still New Orleans. We are the soul of America. We embody the triumph of the human spirit. Hell. We ARE Mardi Gras”. Since 2006, a number of new Mardi Gras practices have gained prominence. The new parade organizations or krewes, as they are called, interpret and revise the city’s Carnival traditions but bring innovative practices to Mardi Gras. The history of each parade reveals the convergence of race, class, age, and gender dynamics in these new Carnival organizations. Downtown Mardi Gras: New Carnival Practices in Post-Katrina New Orleans examines six unique, offbeat, Downtown celebrations. Using ethnography, folklore, cultural, and performance studies, the authors analyze new Mardi Gras’s connection to traditional Mardi Gras. The narrative of each krewe’s development is fascinating and unique, illustrating participants’ shared desire to contribute to New Orleans’s rich and vibrant culture.

Abstract:

A Pearl in Peril: Heritage and Diplomacy in Turkey explores the relationship between an urban core and her rural hinterland. Known as the Pearl of the Mediterranean, Izmir is Turkey’s third largest city with a vast and changing countryside. Luke investigates Izmir’s hinterland in the context of its vexed and contested past as well as its burgeoning future. From the Greek “Big Idea” (Megali Idea) that foreshadowed the “Asia Minor Catastrophe” to Turkey’s first post–World War I International Fair in 1923 and the design of Izmir’s Kültürpark, this study probes the pivoting place of cultural heritage in the countryside of Izmir, from Classical ruins to active industrial landscapes. Case studies reveal contested negotiations and the legacies of the extraction industry, archaeologists, and the League of Nations; the untold story of the Tennessee Valley Authority’s project in the Aegean and open intelligence at the Izmir International Fairs; the effects at Sardis from Abu Simbel’s exorbitant price tag; and the relationship between organic olives, the European Union, highway expansion, and the preservation of Bin Tepe, Turkey’s largest royal burial. These examples illustrate the art of negotiation and diplomatic practice in archaeology as reflected in treaties, development dollars, and corporatism from the late nineteenth century to current day. Future centennial events of the League of Nations in 2020 and the Republic of Turkey in 2023 offer opportunities for reflection of Europe’s promise, Turkey’s vision, and the global context of heritage studies, human rights, and agendas of development.

Abstract:

Between the 1950s and the 1980s, Britain witnessed a theatre-building boom. Across the country, substantial new theatres were constructed in town and city centres, and on university campuses. The construction of many of these buildings was subsidized with public funds. As a result, many of them represented a range of agendas that went far beyond the practical needs of performers: they addressed such themes as the place of public buildings in Britain’s changing urban landscape, the role of culture and leisure in modern life, and the extent to which support for the arts could be understood as part of the evolving welfare state project. The book provides the first detailed history of these buildings, looking at projects which were never built as well as those that were completed. It is concerned not only with the planning and appearance of new theatres but also the ideas that shaped theatre architecture, and the organizations and processes that made new theatres possible. In this respect, it draws on a rich seam of archive material, much of which has not previously been studied. It explains how theatre architecture was transformed in post-war Britain while also pointing to significant continuities in conception and design. It also shows how these buildings functioned as vehicles through which to explore such ideas as modernity, identity, and community. In this respect, it concludes that Britain’s new theatres were not only significant in themselves but also that they shed light on the period’s social, urban, and political histories.

Abstract:

Medio siglo transcurrió desde la Resolución 2065 (XX) de la Asamblea General de Naciones Unidas en la que la comunidad internacional reconoció, por primera vez, en 1965, la existencia de una disputa de soberanía entre Argentina y el Reino Unido acerca de la Cuestión de las Islas Malvinas, y que dio origen a un proceso de negociaciones entre ambos países. El libro recupera, en etapas, la historia amplia del diferendo desde dicha resolución. Presenta los cambios y las continuidades, y aspectos desconocidos de un asunto de público interés. Presenta también historias de malvinenses y descendientes de malvinenses, atravesadas por la Cuestión Malvinas. “Estamos frente a un libro que realiza una gran contribución, no solo para aquellos lectores que deseen ahondar sobre una problemática irresuelta de la configuración de nuestro país, que involucra a nuestra región en su conjunto, sino también para quienes, desde distintos lugares, nos toca intervenir en la búsqueda de la recuperación del ejercicio pleno de la soberanía de las Islas Malvinas”. Del Prólogo de Daniel Filmus. “Este es un libro lleno de voces que dialogan. No es frecuente. Entre todas las posibilidades para dar cuenta de un proceso, Uriel Erlich optó por convocar a un foro heterogéneo de protagonistas en su libro. No se trata de la consabida cita que, cada tanto, quiebra el discurso para ratificar lo que se viene diciendo. Uriel Erlich les da la palabra”. Del Prólogo de Marcelo Vernet.
