Abstract:
A noção de sustentabilidade remete antes à lógica das práticas, em que efeitos práticos considerados desejáveis são levados a acontecer, do que ao campo do conhecimento científico, em que os conceitos são construídos para explicar o real. Aplicada ao espaço urbano, a noção de sustentabilidade tem acionado diversas representações para a gestão das cidades, desde a administração de riscos e incertezas ao incremento da “resiliência” – a capacidade adaptativa – das estruturas urbanas. O que parece organizar analiticamente o discurso da “sustentabilidade urbana” seria sua distribuição em dois campos: de um lado, aquele que privilegia uma representação técnica das cidades pela articulação da noção de sustentabilidade urbana aos “modos de gestão dos fluxos de energia e materiais associados ao crescimento urbano”; de outro, aquele que define a insustentabilidade das cidades pela queda da produtividade dos investimentos urbanos, ou seja, pela “incapacidade destes últimos acompanharem o ritmo de crescimento das demandas sociais”, o que coloca em jogo, conseqüentemente, o espaço urbano como território político. Palavras-chave: sustentabilidade; planejamento urbano; política ambiental."Discourses on Urban Sustainability" Abstract : The idea of sustainability recalls the logic of practice, where practical effects viewed as desirable are made to happen, rather than the field of scientific knowledge, where concepts are constructed to explain reality. When applied to urban space, the idea of sustainability has generated different representations and perspectives for managing cities, from the administration of risks and uncertainties to the increase of "resilience" – the adaptive capacity – of urban structures. What seems to organize analytically the discourse of "urban sustainability" is its division into two fields: on the one hand privileging a technical representation of cities by combining the notion of urban sustainability with the "modes of management of the flows of energy and materials associated with urban growth"; on the other hand defining the unsustainability of cities by the drop in productivity of urban investments, that is, by the "incapacity of the latter to keep up with the rate of growth of social demands", which consequently places urban space in jeopardy as a political territory. Keywords: sustainability, urban planning, environmental politics.

Abstract:
La sotenibilidad urbana se ha tornado en uno de los debates más candentes durante los últimos años, en tanto trata asuntos ambientales y le otorga una función nueva y fundamental a la planeación urbana. Sin embargo los modelos económicos urbanos omiten los aspectos de sostenibilidad ambiental que áreas como la geografía, la sociología y otras ya han tenido en cuenta. Una de las razones principales razones para esta falencia, desde una perspectiva teórica, puede ser la dificultad para tratar el concepto de sostenibilidad. Este artículo es un intento para tratar la sostenibilidad del desarrollo urbano en términos económicos. Utilizando un marco de referencia de economía pública, trata de adaptar el concepto y acomodarlo a un modelo básico de ubicación estática urbana. Surgen resultados interesantes, especialmente en lo que respecta a la relación entre la sostenibilidad urbana y la intervención en la planeación urbana. Palabras Clave: Sostenibilidad urbana, degradación del medio ambiente, infraestructura del transporte, consumo de energía, contaminación, nivel de bienestar, renta de la tierra.

Abstract:
For some years now, the phenomena of urban agriculture have been present in the public discourse on cities and sustainability. It is often assumed that urban agriculture has the potential to contribute to an increased sustainability of the cities. However, many practical and theoretical obstacles might have to be overcome in order to realize this potential. One ambition of this thesis is to analyse urban agriculture as a “sustainability multiplier” – that is, as a practice that can positively affect a large number of dimensions of sustainability. Another ambition is to study how urban agriculture can contribute to lower the “ecological footprint” of our cities. Two concepts are essential in the discussion and have been given special attention in the thesis: “ecological footprint” and “sustainability”.

Uncontrolled urban expansion is related to several socio-environmental problems in developing countries like Peru. In order to understand the urban expansion in non-developable areas, the research combines three dimensions of analysis: spatial analysis, social behavior analysis, and the evaluation of urban management and spatial planning. The study focuses on three Peruvian cases: a seasonal fog-oasis in the arid city of Lima, the prime farmlands in Cajamarca valley, and the wetlands of the small city of Huamachuco. Urban expansion in the case studies is predominantly informal and disorganized as a consequence of serious deficiencies in local public management, road planning, and the culture of informality. However, some communal organizations and social leaders contribute to a more sustainable land-use

Abstract:
Meeting current and future demands for food is one of the biggest problems facing the world today. Despite the positive correlation that exists between food production and urban food demand, food systems remain separate and excluded from cities. Vertical farming has been proposed as a solution projected to address these issues in a sustainable way. This study aims to determine the sustainability of a vertical farm operation and its perceived value to food security and urban systems. This study implements a qualitative approach and case study research design useful for small, applied research studies, where data is collected via a literature review, emails, and semi- structured interviews. Systems theory is used to frame the phenomena at hand since it allows for a holistic systems view, and the study’s results are analyzed using emergy theory and a conceptual framework based on urban political agroecology. A vertical farm was selected as the focus of the case study, with the vertical farm sustainability serving as this study’s unit of analysis. Contrary to existing information, the results indicate that the vertical farm studied is unsustainable due to its dependence on imported resources. Additionally, an assessment of vertical farm impacts through a conceptual framework on urban political agroecology determined that vertical farming is incompatible with agroecological principle, provides few positive impacts to urban systems, and makes most of its contributions to urban food security rather than food sovereignty. For the sustainable development of vertical farms and urban systems, emergy theory stresses that inputs into the system must be local renewable inputs (i.e. natural inputs located within the system boundaries), and that successful systems should create and implement reinforcing feedbacks. Nonetheless, vertical farming systems are quite immature and carry great potential for change; this study presents recommendations for vertical farming systems reorganizing more sustainably.

Abstract:
The pursuit of urban sustainability is considered central to sustainable development and is a key objective of the global Sustainable Development Goals (2015) and the New Urban Agenda (2016). This thesis aims to contribute to debates on urban sustainability by providing insights as to the role of actors participating in processes of governing for urban sustainability, with particular focus on the municipal organisation. The thesis employs an interdisciplinary approach to illustrate divergent approaches to governing for urban sustainability, with reference to empirical studies of strategic planning processes in municipalities in selected North-western European countries – Sweden, Switzerland and The Netherlands. These studies address themes including climate change, sustainable transport and multi-level governance. The thesis provides a broad overview of theoretical discussions related to governing, strategy and planning, the role of actors in governing for urban sustainability, and the particular importance of climate change as a challenge for urban sustainability. A number of research gaps are identified and addressed in two research questions, focusing on the organisation and practice of processes of governing for urban sustainability, and the factors influencing actors participating in such processes. The thesis responds to these research questions with reference to five appended papers, which illustrate different dimensions of governing for urban sustainability. The first paper concerns the organisation of processes to develop energy and climate strategies in Swedish municipalities, and the second paper highlights the experiences of actors participating in such processes. The third paper presents results from a survey illustrating the expectations of stakeholders active in governing transport in the city of Norrköping, Sweden. In the fourth paper, the development and implementation of policies aiming for sustainable transport and urban sustainability in Basel, Switzerland, are discussed. In the final paper, cooperation through transnational municipal networks is explored with reference to the World Ports Climate Declaration, an initiative of the city of Rotterdam. The thesis confirms the presence of five factors – capacity, mandate, resources, scope and will – that shape the “strategy space” of actors and play an important role in conditioning the form and content of processes of governing for urban sustainability. The thesis suggests that the ways in which a municipal organisation perceive and mobilise the five factors will strongly determine the extent of its sustainability strategy space. In sum, municipal organisations and other actors participating in processes of governing for urban sustainability need to mobilise the five factors and expand their strategy space, in order to achieve vertical and horizontal alignment of strategic objectives and facilitate implementation that delivers transformative change.

The Oporto authorities currently face the challenge to revitalize the Historic Center of Oporto and make it attractive for investors without compromising the permanence of the traditional residents and their integration with new ones. This study discusses the impacts and sustainability of the rehabilitation and revitalization efforts, as well as how authorities can prevent gentrification and desertion, which can jeopardize the outstanding universal value of the Historic Center of Oporto.

Abstract:
El Centro Histórico de Quito, Ecuador fue declarado por la UNESCO en 1978 Patrimonio Cultural de la Humanidad. Ha sido ampliamente estudiado, diagnosticado y se han determinado distintas formas de aproximación que han determinado proyectos de intervención así como generado instancias administrativas de gestión y control. En este informe de destacan Plan Quito, la primera aproximación detallada que intenta incluir una visión no monumentalista, que define un perímetro e incorpora importantes contenidos urbanos, y el Plan Maestro del CHQ, estudio orientado a un diagnostico en lo arquitectónico, urbano y socio económico a fin de establecer planes de actuación. El estudio delinea los factores que influyen en la sostenibilidad del proceso de preservación del Centro Histórico de Quito, y concluye que lograr la sostenibilidad demanda trabajar activamente en la transmisión de una visión común y lograr la participación de todos los actores públicos y privados, ejecutar programas y proyectos que incluyan los factores antes citados y definir políticas apropiadas que fortalezcan su predomino sobre otros intereses particulares.

Abstract:
This paper analyzes the Historic Center of Valparaiso, which was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2003. The city's vernacular urban fabric and its layout, infrastructure, and architecture characterize the seaport city, which respond to its unique geographical and topographical environment. In Valparaiso's case, the geographical conditions were so severe that the adaptation of building forms to the environment gave rise to an entirely original result.
