Abstract:
Nello studio delle trasformazioni architettoniche e urbane che incidono sul tessuto di Manhattan nel corso del Novecento, la Avenue offre una dimensione privilegiata per indagare il ruolo di tali processi nel riorganizzare gerarchie, ridefinire rapporti, e redistribuire valori – non solo economici - tra le maglie della griglia. Il presente lavoro di tesi si propone di ricostruire la storia e riflettere sulle dinamiche di trasformazione di un settore urbano nel cuore del Central Business District di Midtown, che comprende isolati e architetture con diretto affaccio su un'asse: la Sixth Avenue. Definita da Robert Stern come la strada più rappresentativa dell'urbanistica moderna in territorio americano, la Sesta, in particolare il tratto nord che attraversa Midtown, compreso tra 40th e 59th strada su cui si concentra la tesi, è una antologia che raccoglie immaginari e piani urbani, molti dei quali rimasti sulla carta, elaborati in continuità con un dibattito erede del New Deal e degli anni di guerra, e progetti di speculative skyscrapers, costruiti come estensione del distretto commerciale negli anni del boom. Concentrandosi sul periodo compreso tra gli anni Quaranta fino ai primi anni Sessanta, il caso studio della Sixth Avenue permette di indagare la confluenza di politiche, capitali e pianificazione urbana, tra gli anni di guerra e i primi anni della Guerra Fredda, con uno sguardo rivolto agli interessi immobiliari nell'area di Midtown e alla complessa rete di soggetti pubblici, semi-pubblici e privati che prende parte ai processi decisionali nella produzione dello spazio urbano. L'arco temporale adottato nella tesi riflette quindi una scelta di carattere interpretativo, che ha come primo obiettivo l'esplorazione di continuità e discontinuità tra gli anni successivi al New Deal e il periodo postbellico, attraverso la lettura di immaginari, piani e cantieri che intervengono nella progettazione della città alla scala urbana. Nel lavoro di tesi si pone una speciale attenzione alle resistenze e ai cambiamenti di valori e di contenuti nel dibattito intorno alla trasformazione della Avenue, abbracciando una tesi storiografica che interpreta la Seconda Guerra Mondiale non come una parentesi chiusa, ma piuttosto come un acceleratore di processi anche per la teoria e la pratica architettonica. Attraverso un incrocio e confronto tra fonti di diversa natura e consistenza il tentativo della tesi è di costruire una prima storia urbana sulla nascita della Avenue of the Americas, volta a colmare una lacuna su una sezione della città ancora poco esplorata dalla storiografia di settore. Inserendosi tra gli studi sull'architettura e l'urbanistica sulla città nordamericana del Ventesimo secolo, con riferimento al caso newyorkese, il lavoro si colloca in una dimensione intermedia tra lo studio della pianificazione e le indagini sul costruito: la tesi si sforza di connettere la produzione di immaginari, le strategie patrimoniali, la progettazione architettonica e la produzione normativa, con una specifica attenzione al rapporto tra la scala della città e quello dell’indagine sulle architetture, anche autoriali, che in quel contesto si sono costruite.

Abstract:
By the late 1630s European settlers had begun establishing homesteads in Middle Plantation, a few miles from Jamestown, Virginia’s colonial capital and America’s first permanent English settlement. Construction of the College of William & Mary during the early 1690s fueled development, and in 1699, Williamsburg, the colony’s new capital, was laid out into streets and lots. The fledgling community and government seat soon became a center for political, cultural, and commercial life, where people of African, European, and Native American descent interacted on a regular basis. Relocation of Virginia’s capital to Richmond during the American Revolution brought irrevocable change to the city and brought economic stagnation. Williamsburg’s vitality was restored during the 1930s, thanks to John D. Rockefeller’s philanthropy, which funded professional archaeological, architectural, and historical research. Today it is a major center for education on eighteenth-century life.

Abstract:
This chapter contrasts the political interpretation of sertanejos’ endemic illnesses, promulgated by Brazilian sanitarians, with the approach to public health promoted by Rockefeller Foundation International Health Board (IHB) representatives who also worked in Brazil during the 1910s. These contrasting interpretations of the political and racial origins of endemic disease delineate two poles around which subsequent approaches to sertão development turned. Early in the chapter, public health infrastructure in the northeast region is evaluated in relation to states’ limited capacity to assist drought refugees or prevent epidemics in migrant camps, and the efforts of cearense physician Rodolfo Teófilo are emphasized. The remainder of the chapter focuses on a sanitary survey of the sertão undertaken by Belisário Penna and Arthur Neiva in 1912; subsequent public health projects engaged in by Penna (notably the Serviço de Profilaxia Rural, or Rural Sanitation Service) and the Rockefeller Foundation’s International Health Board in Brazil; and the establishment of a national department of public health stemming from these efforts. The analysis emphasizes the racism of IHB director Wickliffe Rose which led him to dismiss the modernizing potential of sertanejos and to attribute their diseases to racial weakness. This is contrasted with Penna’s rejection of racial and climatic determinism.

Abstract:
Chapters 5 and 6 both examine the Gilded Age of the late nineteenth century. The single most momentous change to hit the upper class during this period was the enlargement and enrichment of the city’s elites. These pressures had existed to a degree before the Civil War, but rapid economic growth heightened their intensity and made them the central feature of upper-class life in the second half of the nineteenth century. Families like the Vanderbilts and Rockefellers accumulated fortunes that dwarfed those of the Astors and Lorillards from earlier in the century, widening the income gap within the upper class as well as between it and middle- and lower-class New Yorkers. As a result of the structural instabilities caused by the dynamic urban economy and the lack of a titled American ruling class, along with the cultural strains caused by the nation’s democratic ethos, the upper class of New York City has throughout its existence been prone to thoroughgoing social and cultural changes. The intensification of these demographic and economic pressures in the second half of the nineteenth century raised concerns within that upper class about the sources of its legitimacy and the need for more coherent and restrictive social and cultural codes.

Abstract:
This epilogue addresses how David Whippy, Mary D. Wallis, and John B. Williams—as they pursued respect in different ways—became party to the many changes taking place in Fiji due to foreign influence. Whippy, Wallis, and Williams were all involved, in one way or another, in the U.S.–Fiji trade. In the twentieth century, new incentives enticed Americans to Fiji. American global activism and private development schemes involved Fiji as much as other places around the world, and medical aid and research sponsored by the Rockefeller Foundation and a Carnegie Library at Suva introduced new forms of American influence in the islands. World War II, of course, brought Americans to the islands in droves. However, the main avenue by which Americans would come to Fiji was through the third wave of economic development that succeeded the sugar plantations of colonial Fiji: tourism. Now that the face of Fiji presented to the rest of the world evokes pleasure instead of fear, references to the cannibal isles have become nothing more than a nostalgic nod to Fiji's past. Previously considered a site of American wealth production, the islands have now become a site of American consumption.
