AbstractIn the early twentieth century, Australians strove to create a rural civilisation through state legislation to encourage rural closer settlement. The fantasy that Australia might one day support a rural population of perhaps hundreds of millions endured despite the overwhelmingly urbanised character of the nation and the harsh realities of its environment. This rural dream was present not merely in the discourse surrounding the rural settlement imperative, but also inflected the language and modes of urban reform, as planners sought to ‘ruralise’ the urban environment to reflect something distinctive about Australian life. Previous scholarship addressing the rural ideal in Australian history, as well as urban history, has failed to interrogate these links. This article illuminates the power and ideological reach of rurality in the Australian nation-building project and pushes the boundaries of ‘rural history’ by considering the ways in which reformers sought to extend a projected Australian ‘rural civilisation’ into the cities.

AbstractAt the outbreak of the Second World War the holiday camp entrepreneur Billy Butlin agreed a secret deal to build an Admiralty training camp near Pwllheli in North Wales. The camp would be transferred to Butlin at the end of the war for use as a holiday camp. Whilst planners were initially horrified, the strategic argument that such camps would concentrate coastal development and also provide the necessary places for the expansion of ‘holidays with pay’ prevailed. More sustained opposition came from those concerned about the imposition of a culture of urbanised mass leisure on the Welsh heartland of the Llŷn Peninsula. For some, the threat was ‘bathing beauties’ and alcohol; more profoundly, many feared the destruction of a Welsh-speaking rural polity. National sentiment rallied around an alternative social service camp and an overt form of Welsh nation-building. Nonetheless, Butlin won the case and the holiday camp opened in 1947.

This article examines how President Alejandro Toledo's self-professed Andean identity and efforts to establish a state-led indigenous rights framework conflicted with a growing eco-ethno alliance of Andean and Amazonian representatives in Peru. Existing scholarly accounts declare the indigenous movement to be unimportant or, indeed, entirely absent in Peru. Yet, they do so by emphasising the centrality of the historical dynamic between the Andean region, where until recently local peoples have desisted from making explicit indigenous claims, and the urbanised coastal region, where the elite's power is most clearly concentrated. This obscures the Amazon as a site of historical events and eco-ethno-politics of national and global scope. The recent emergence of a debate on indigenous issues shows that the Amazonians' longer engagement in the global sphere of indigenous and environmental politics now places them in the position of exemplifying indigeneity for the Andeans and Peruvians at large. This shift challenges in fundamental ways the historical image of Peru the nation as inextricably implicated in the post-colonial fantasies of what I term the ‘Inca slot’.

If increasing crime seems to be an unavoidable concomitant of rapid urbanisation, Japan might be an interesting exception. Both statistics and research tell us that Japan is a modern, rapidly urbanised society with little crime. This article raises the question if, and eventually in which way, one may talk about Japan as a low crime nation. Is there anything of criminological interest to learn from Japan? After describing the Japanese society along five analytical dimensions the answer to this question is that while in the West we can talk about “community lost”, in Japan we should rather talk about “individual lost”. At the individual level the obliteration of the self is the price to be paid for less crime. However, at the collective level Japan might teach the West a lesson. If crime is regarded as actions committed by outsiders, then Japanese society has succeeded in linking the individual to a group context which most likely functions in a crime preventive way. Instead of endless crime preventive programs of “social engineering”, the West should pay more attention to basic sociological insights concerning collective obligations and identities. In this regard we might look to Japan.

Background Schoolchildren form an important target group for a nation, as any ocular morbidity in this age group has huge physical, psychological and socio-economical implications. Childhood eye disorders can contribute to the burden of blindness in any society. This study aims to highlight the prevalence of ocular morbidity in governmental schools in a sub-urbanised area of Nepal, in relation to ethnic variation. Methods A descriptive study, and the study population used were schoolchildren who were examined in their schools and afterwards referred to the hospital if required. Presenting and best corrected visual acuity, refraction, binocularity assessment, anterior and posterior segment evaluation was carried out. Data was analysed statistically using SPSS software, version 14. Results We examined 1,802 school children. The mean age was 10.78±3.61 years. Ocular abnormality was detected in 11.7%. Low vision and blindness was rare (0.11% and 0.05%). Ocular morbidities were more common in Newar communities (3.71%) followed by Brahamans (3.38%). Lid abnormalities were the most common (3.55%), and morbidities in each ethnicity were followed by refractive errors (3%), conjunctival abnormalities (1.10%), strabismus (0.88%) and amblyopia (0.33%). Refractive errors were most common among Newar communities (1.16%) at almost twice as many Brahamans (0.61%) followed by Mongolians (0.49%). Convergence insufficiency was detected in 2.49% (p<0.01). Conclusions Ocular morbidities are common in children in Kavhrepalanchowk District with lid abnormalities being the most common issue, probably due to a lack of hygienic practice. Ethnic variation of ocular morbidities is an important observation mostly for refractive error and strabismus.http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/kumj.v8i4.6231 Kathmandu Univ Med J 2010;8(4):362-6

The world is becoming more and more urbanised by the day. India also is all set to become an urban majority nation by the mid-twenty-first century. Most of India's urbanisation seems unplanned and mismanaged leading to a host of social problems like slum extensions, social exclusions, absence of basic accessibilities with the widespread prevalence of social injustice and the process has been majorly attributed to migrants from rural areas. Post-independence plans exhibit several instances of correcting congestions in India's big cities through the creation of alternate absorption points. With this background in mind, the paper goes on to argue that, the urbanisation of mid-sized cities have proven to be mostly unimpressive, failing to relieve the big cities, thereby generating a top-heavy structure. It further finds, through an extensive content analysis that the Smart City Mission was introduced to rid the Indian cities of its long-pending issues by enabling big cities to accommodate better and most importantly empowering mid-sized cities to emerge as centres of growth. However, following the tradition of a certain kind of project-based urbanisation; the mission appears to have inherited vulnerabilities like hierarchical power structures, inadequate local bodies, the dependence of private players, exploitative market forces and inter-group and inter-spatial conflicts from its predecessors like the JNNURM. Undoubtedly, the intent has been to learn from the past but the basic federal structure of governance, the complex socio-spatial dynamics, the varied stakes and concerned stakeholders causes one to re-think if the mission can entirely be a success and create cities which can globally be identified as smart.

Belarus Vis a Vis Nation-Building Processes in Central and East European CommunitiesThe text explores the nation-building factors that determined the intensity with which certain nations in Central and East Europe were formed in the 19th century and at the beginning of the 20th century – with some reference to their contemporary situation, especially of today’s Belarus. In addition to Belarus, the analyses also briefly cover nation-building processes in Ukraine (Galicia and Dnieper Ukraine), Slovakia and the Czech Republic. Three categories of factors that are crucial for the processes under discussion have already been distinguished – namely civilization, culture and politics. All three types decisively benefited the Czechs, who succeeded in developing nation-building processes the soonest; the Czechs, among all the other nations in the region, thus first acquired a national awareness at the popular level. On the contrary, the above-mentioned factors did not work to the benefit of the Belarussians and Dnieper Ukrainians. The territories they inhabited were very weakly industrialized and urbanized, while their languages differed from Russian and Polish much less than was the case, on the one hand, of the Slovaks and Czechs, and on the other, of the Hungarians and Austrians (Germans). At the same time, Russian policies obviously hampered the formation of the Belarussian and Ukrainian nations. This article shows the strength with which objective conditions exerted an influence on nation-building processes in our part of the continent.

Enquanto o urbanismo na Europa nasceu no bojo de um processo de modernização e reforma social, no Brasil ele encontrou um país que não era verdadeiramente urbano e industrial. Portanto, teorias européias desenvolvidas em resposta à modernização chegaram ao Brasil antes que a modernização acontecesse. Pode-se argumentar que o urbanismo, assim como fábricas, redes de transportes e arranha-céus, assumiu uma natureza marcadamente simbólica. Este texto reflete sobre estes temas tomando como exemplo o plano de Alfred Agache para o Rio de Janeiro (1928-1930). Um marco na evolução do urbanismo brasileiro, esse plano tinha como objetivo resolver os problemas funcionais do Rio de Janeiro, dar-lhe uma feição de capital e incutir na mente de seus habitantes um ideal de vida moderna, sem descurar de requerimentos funcionais, como zoneamento e tráfego. Além de uma análise do processo de contratação de Agache e de seu relacionamento com as elites locais, a ênfase recairá sobre os grandes espaços urbanos projetados por Agache, a Entrada do Brasil e a Praça do Castello.Palavras-chave: urbanismo; Rio de Janeiro; Alfred Agache; modernidade; projeto nacional. Abstract: Urbanism was born in the midst of a social modernization context in Europe, but in Brazil it found a country which was neither urban nor industrial. Therefore, European theories that were developed in response to modernization began arriving in Brazil even before the country’s actual political and social modernization. We can argue that urbanism? as well as factories, networks of transportation and skyscrapers – acquired a patently symbolic nature. This paper reflects on these topics taking into consideration Alfred Agache’s plan for Rio de Janeiro (1928-1930), a hallmark in the evolution of Brazilian urbanism. Its objective was to solve the city’s functional problems, to provide it with an expression of a capital, and to inculcate Rio’s inhabitants with an ideal of modern life, while still considering functional requirements, such as zoning and traffic. In addition to the analysis of the commissioning of Agache and his relationship with local elites, I will emphasize the great urban spaces designed by him, the Gateway of Brazil and the Castello Square. Keywords: urbanism; Rio de Janeiro; Alfred Agache; modernity; nation-building.

Full textAbstract:
Most theories of nationalism labelled as ‘modernist’ tend to overlook the fact that the phenomenon to which they vaguely refer as ‘Modernity’ is defined by a single, very precise and consistent socio-economic system, that of capitalism. However, this fact makes nationalism and capitalism, rather than nationalism and ‘Modernity’, practically congruent. From this perspective, the essential question that arises is whether the emergence of these two was a spontaneous but compatible and useful coincidence, or nationalism was capitalism’s deliberate invention? In the capitalist era, society has become merely a resource whose existence enables functioning of the market. Such a society must destroy all traditional communal ties on which the maintenance of traditional society was based, so that the principles of reciprocity and solidarity be replaced by the procedures of asymmetric economic exchange. Once the procedures of asymmetric economic exchange become the central principle of human relations, society stops functioning as a whole and becomes sharply divided into two parts – a well-organised and tightly-structured network of self-interested individuals permanently striving for perpetual economic gain and a shapeless mob of socially dislodged labour permanently striving for mere survival. The incessant widening of the gap between the two strata makes capitalism’s essential principle of endless accumulation of capital socially unsustainable. For, rapidly urbanised masses, forced into selling their labour below the minimal price, contain a permanently present insurrectionary potential that might threaten stability of the entire system. So, bridging that gap without actually changing the structure of society becomes the paramount task for the system trying to preserve its mechanism of incessant exploitation of labour and limitless accumulation of capital. Therefore, the system has to introduce a social glue that is tailored to conceal, but also to cement, the actual polarisation of society. At the same time, this glue is designed to compensate the uprooted masses for the loss of their authentic identities by replacing these with a single artificial one. This multi-purpose invention is an abstract concept of absolute social unity, named “the nation”, based on the assumption that those who are located on both sides of the gap, no matter whether they are on the exploiting or exploited side, automatically share the same equal rights, same common interests, and same identity.

They helped every one his neighbor; and every one said to his brother, Be of good courage.—Isaiah 41:6By the end of the nineteenth century most of the economically advanced European nations had adopted some form of public social insurance. In the world’s richest nation, however, widows and the aged, sick, and injured received little support from the state. Without the help of the state, how did American workers and their families survive in the face of sickness, accidents, old age, or the death of the primary earner? The traditional answer is that they survived rather badly, if at all. Social reformers of the early twentieth century and most modern historians argue that voluntarism was a failure, that it was not suited to the needs of an increasingly industrialized, urbanized populace.

L'objectif de la these etait d'analyser l'evolution de la notion de patrimoine en grece et son extension a la protection des centres anciens, en tenant compte de deux faits essentiels. La notion de patrimoine s'est developpee dans ce pays en reference exclusive a l'antiquite, element fondamental de l'identite nationale ; lors de l'independance de la grece, l'architecture, formant alors l'essentiel des centres villes, a ete rejetee, parce que symbolisant l'occupation turque. Il s'agissait donc de savoir si la notion de patrimoine avait reussi a s'affranchir de la reference exclusive aux antiquites et a prendre en compte les centres anciens qui constituent l'un des elargissements recents de cette notion. Pour cela, nous avons choisi de travailler sur quelques villes de macedoine dont l'architecture, apparue au xviii siecle et commune a la moitie occidentale de l'empire ottoman, subsiste encore. Ce travail a ete organise en trois points : l'analyse de l'interet porte a l'architecture de grece du nord, de la legislation du patrimoine et de l'administration en charge de sa protection, et des pratiques de protection. Le travail de these a permi de demontrer que l'elargissement de la notion de patrimoine a la protection des centres anciens parait un processus inabouti et cela pour differentes raisons. Le ministere de la culture, l'une des autorites protectrices, ne semble pas avoir su integrer le patrimoine urbain dans sa mission de protection : la legislation, archeologique, privilegie la protection des antiquites et des monuments en general. Le ministere de l'amenagement, devenu la principale autorite protectrice du patrimoine urbain, cherche surtout a reprendre le controle de la construction qui a longtemps constitue le principal moteur de l'economie grecque, engendrant une speculation immobiliere pratiquee a grande echelle. Sa politique privilegie la protection de la disposition urbaine au detriment du bati ancien dont il peut autoriser la reconstruction.

Full textAbstract:
Dans la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle, l’Éthiopie luttait farouchement pour conserver son indépendance, tout en agrandissant considérablement son territoire. Une région de montagnes et de prairies, jusqu’alors aux marges méridionales de l’espace national, se retrouva au centre du pays défini par de nouvelles frontières. C’est là qu’est née Addis Abäba vers 1886, d’abord simple "kätäma" (camp royal) et base logistique pour les conquêtes militaires, avant de devenir un « carrefour du monde ».L’objectif de cette thèse est une mise en lumière du rôle moteur, exercé par la volonté de reconnaissance de la souveraineté nationale, dans le processus particulier de fondation et de pérennisation de la capitale éthiopienne, ainsi que dans son développement au cours du XXe siècle. Les grandes phases de croissance d’Addis Abäba ne peuvent être comprises qu’à l’aune du contexte international, alors que la souveraineté et l’indépendance éthiopiennes étaient menacées. Dans ces moments particuliers, le pouvoir a mis la ville en scène, en la développant et en la dotant d’un patrimoine architectural et monumental. Pour cela, il puisa dans le temps long de l’histoire éthiopienne, dans l’attachement à la chrétienté éthiopienne — la religion "Täwahǝdo" — et dans le mythe national du "Kǝbrä Nägäst". Les règnes et régimes successifs ont adopté une même rhétorique urbaine et bâtisseuse, jusqu’au XXIe siècleWhile fiercely struggling for its independence during the second half of the 19th century, Ethiopia extended considerably its territory. A region of meadows and mountains, at the southern march, became the centre of the country in its new borders. There, in 1886, what was first founded as a garrison camp for its strategic position became Addis Abäba, soon the new capital at the crossroads of the world.This thesis aims to highlight the part played by the national sovereignty and its recognition in the particular process of the Ethiopian capital foundation and its perpetuation, as well as its development during the 20th century. The main growing phases of Addis Abäba might only be understood in terms of its international context whilst Ethiopian sovereignty and independence were jeopardized. During those particular times, the rulers used Addis Abäba as a stage for its performance, expanding the city and provided it with architectural and monumental heritage. For this, they drew in the country’s long-time history, in the strong commitment to the Ethiopian Christianity – the "Täwahǝdo" – and into the "Kǝbrä Nägäst" the national myth. The successive systems and reigns until the 21st century have adopted the same urban and building response

Le projet d’aménagement urbain est confronté à des problèmes territoriaux et urbains de plus en plus complexes. Comment alors enrichir voire renouveler les pratiques en expérimentant des configurations nouvelles d’acteurs, de méthodes et d’outils ? Les solutions seront ici recherchées dans le champ de l’innovation urbaine, qui couvre un vaste champ d’initiatives, notamment l’innovation de méthode en urbanisme. Dans ce contexte théorique et opérationnel appelant à des expérimentations, la démarche de recherche suivie s’attache à mettre en lien le potentiel offert par certaines pratiques innovantes et les besoins de l’urbanisme. Le mode-projet Urban Living Lab permet de piloter un espace et un processus d’innovation multi-acteurs et collaboratif.

L’expérience montre la capacité de l’approche Urban Living Lab à renégocier les frontières de la gouvernance du projet d’aménagement urbain et d’assurer un ancrage dans la gouvernance territorialeThe urban development project is confronted with increasingly complex territorial and urban problems. How then can we enrich or even renew practices by experimenting with new configurations of actors, methods and tools? Solutions will be sought here in the field of urban innovation, which covers a wide range of initiatives, including method innovation in urban planning. In this theoretical and operational context calling for experimentation, the research approach followed aims to link the potential offered by certain innovative practices with the needs of urban planning. The Urban Living Lab project mode makes it possible to manage a multi-stakeholder and collaborative space and innovation process. The conduct of research and intervention in the context of the Alzette Belval National Interest Operation experimented with the integration of an Urban Living Lab approach into the governance, management and operational processes of an urban development project. This research work leads to the identification of the potential of the Urban Living Lab in terms of dialogue between the processes of project management of an urban development project and an innovation process producing actionable knowledge.

Ce travail se situe dans le champ de l'histoire urbaine et sociale. Il se propose de saisir dans trois temporalités politiques, les conditions de production du territoire palestinien revendiqué tout au long du XXème siècle comme objet patriotique et nationaliste et influencé par les présences étrangères ou coloniales successives .L'accent est mis sur la dynamique des pouvoirs, des espaces et des hommes vue à partir de l'éclairage simultané des discours, des milieux professionnels liés à la ville et des types d'espaces urbains produits. La première partie examine la période d'internationalisation urbaine de la Palestine mandataire sous tutelle britannique avec la création d'un tissu cosmopolite et le transfert d'un modèle urbain mais qui parvient pas à s'imposer dans la Palestine arabe. La seconde partie se concentre sur le gouvernement de l'espace et des hommes survenant dans la période d'après guerre (1948-1967) marqué par la partition territoriale et par l'occupation militaire. La recherche met à jour des types de gouvernementalité des hommes et des territoires spécifiques : militarisation des savoirs, colonisation, police de l'espace, transformations d'un espace autochtone et montre le patriotisme des milieux professionnels israéliens en miroir de la résistance palestinienne. La troisième partie est consacrée à la courte période de pacification (1995-2002). La reconstruction donne une légitimité à la libéralisation foncière, à l'urbanisation du capital, au désir de renouvellement historique de la ville traditionnelle.

Full textAbstract:
Les parcs nationaux et les Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONBs) en Angleterre ont, depuis la fin des années 1970, été identifiés comme des territoires propices à la manifestation de dynamiques de gentrification rurale. L’hypothèse de ce travail de recherche repose sur une démarche exploratoire destinée à démontrer que dans ces territoires de nature protégée, les dynamiques de gentrification rurale sont intenses et singulières. Le parc national de Dartmoor, celui du Peak District, et l’AONB des Cotswolds, sont des espaces emblématiques et attractifs pour des nouveaux habitants aisés qui mettent en oeuvre des stratégies résidentielles et transposent, une fois installés, des représentations nourries par leurs sensibilités environnementales, héritées d’un mouvement depuis longtemps structuré. À travers leurs pratiques (comme celles du rewilding), ils s’approprient leurs territoires et les modèlent selon leurs attentes. Par leur maîtrise du planning system, certains gentrifieurs nouent des alliances et impulsent des fronts écologiques qui se traduisent parfois au contentieux et cadenassent toujours plus ces territoires de nature convoités et exclusifs. En dépit d’initiatives locales, l’impossibilité pour les populations locales modestes de revenir vivre dans les parcs nationaux et l’AONB, est une réalité. Cette crise du logement peut s’interpréter comme une des conséquences de la gentrification rurale. Les communautés (in)visibles sont, elles aussi, tenues à l’écart de ces territoires de nature et, si elles y habitent, subissent des exclusions symboliques qui pourraient être assimilées à des formes d'injustices environnementales. Les autorités gestionnaires de ces territoires de nature, et le gouvernement de l’après BREXIT, sont aujourd'hui encore confrontés au défi de trouver l’équilibre entre le social et l’environnementalNational Parks (NPs) and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONBs) in England have, since the late 1970s, been identified as relevant fields of research to study rural gentrification. The hypothesis of this research is based on the fact that in these protected areas, the dynamics of rural gentrification are intense and specific. The Dartmoor National Park, the Peak District National Park, and the Cotswolds AONB, are emblematic and attract new affluents inhabitants who implement residential strategies and transpose, after settling, their representations nourished by environmental ideals, inherited from a long-standing movement. Through their pratices (like those of rewilding), they seize their territories and model them according to their expectations. Some gentrifiers master the keys and codes of the planning system, form alliances and stimulate eco-fronts which sometimes lead to litigation and increasingly lock out these coveted and exclusives areas of nature. This thesis is based on an exploratory approach which allowas us to follow the footsteps of rural gentrification and to take the measure of the intensity of the social and territorial change. Despite local initiatives, local populations are often unable to return to live in the National Parks and the AONB. The costs of access to housing are prohibitive and can be interpreted as one of the consequences of rural gentrification. The (in)visible communities are also kep away from these territories of protected nature and, if they live thre, suffer from symbolic exclusions, close to environmental injustices. National Park Authorities, AONB’s Boards, and the government after BREXIT, are still facing the challenge of finding a balance between the social and the environmental

In this context, emerges a broad set experiences of municipal social housing, with great heterogeneity that appear alongside the traditional interventions, already applied by BNH. These experiences projetuais when compared to the model used by BNH in its early stages, adopt innovative assumptions as sustainable development, diversity of projects, participation processes and stimulating self managed in partnership with organized society. In this sense, this research aims to analyze the main project Set Mangabeira in light of transformations between the first and second phase of BNH.
Este trabalho aborda a segunda fase de atuação do Banco Nacional de Habitação (BNH), entre 1977 e 1986, caracterizada por uma fase de experimentalismo e crítica, às ações anteriores. Nesse quadro, emerge um amplo conjunto de experiências municipais de habitação de interesse social, com grande heterogeneidade que surgem ao lado das ntervenções tradicionais, já aplicadas pelo BNH. Essas experiências projetuais, quando comparados ao modelo usado pelo BNH na sua primeira fase, adotam pressupostos inovadores como desenvolvimento sustentável, diversidade de projetos arquitetônicos, estímulo a processos participativos e autogestionários em parceria com a sociedade organizada. Neste sentido, esta pesquisa tem como objetivo principal analisar o projeto do Conjunto Mangabeira à luz das transformações sofridas entre a primeira e a segunda fase do BNH.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThe United Nation’s 17 Sustainable development Goals (SDG) can be considered as the lighthouse of the great challenges which humanity will be confronted with. Many of these goals are related to our behaviors and our “take, make, and dispose,” namely, the linear dominant economic model that, in the last centuries, is leading to an ongoing increase of resource consumption and, consequently, a huge generation of waste. In fact, the rate of both natural resource consumption and waste generation are urgent issues, especially in the urban and peri-urban areas that will require proper solutions. The city is and will be even more in the future the most affected and the major drivers of resource consumption since it is expected that by 2050 more than 70% of the population will live in urbanized areas, and cities will grow in number and size. It means that land, water, food, energy, and other natural resource are increasingly necessary, but because resources are limited, it is required to change the linear consumption model in a new circular model of use and consumption where waste is avoided. In the last few years, emerged that waste management practices are improving according to the European Waste Hierarchy guidance, but there is still a wide possibility of improvement. This chapter explores, on one hand, what means the circular city, and on the other hand how to build it suggesting some policy recommendations. Considering urban and peri-urban areas as the space of material and people flows, thus optimizing the space used by flows and improving their interactions, it will be possible to construct another step toward circularity. In that view, the circular city acquires an urban and territorial perspective that can be managed with the urban and territorial tools, measures, policies, and plans, able to link also issues like climate adaptation, resilience, and sustainability. Finally, we argue that important work must be done in the immediate future in order to re-think and re-design urban spaces, urban practices, and infrastructures, thus shift from linear to circular city.

La gestión del territorio uruguayo muestra un cambio reciente, profundo y rápido en sus modalidades productivas, incrementándose la participación de la agricultura y en particular los monocultivos de soja, arroz, pinos y eucaliptos. Simultáneamente la exportación de materias primas está en su máximo histórico, potenciando la presión sobre sus ecosistemas endógenos (factores bióticos y abióticos). Las prácticas agrícolas no sostenibles, la contaminación y pérdidas o degradación de recursos, son las amenazas predominantes para los ecosistemas nativos, contribuyendo sistémicamente al declive de los servicios ambientales, y consecuentemente afectando al bienestar humano. Este texto sintetiza la investigación Revisión analítica de enfoques conceptuales e instrumentos normativos de gestión territorial sustentable, con foco en el Sistema Nacional de Áreas Protegidas (2014), presentando sus conclusiones en referencia a las estrategias e instrumentos jurídicos y de gestión, para la conservación del patrimonio ambiental del Uruguay. Uruguayan territory management shows a recent deep and fast change, in their production methods, increasing the share of agriculture in particular monoculture soy, rice, pine and eucalyptus. At the same time, the export of raw materials is at a record high, increasing pressure on their endogenous ecosystems (biotic and abiotic). Unsustainable agricultural practices, pollution and loss or degradation of resources, are the predominant threats to native ecosystems, systemically contributing to the decline of ecosystem services, and consequently affecting the human welfare. This paper summarizes the research “Analytical review of conceptual approaches and policy instruments for sustainable land management, with focus on the National System of Protected Areas (2014), presenting their findings in reference to strategies and legal instruments and management for the conservation of environmental heritage of Uruguay”.

Full textAbstract:
The modern urban ideas arrived in Bogota in 1917, three decades before the Modern Architecture Movement. The ideas burst in with the principles of the Garden City through the US City Planning. They based themselves on Raymond Unwin’s 1909 Town Planning in Practice. Were made evident with Patrick Geddes’ 1915 concept of conurbation. They took advantage of the First Congresses of National Improvements between 1917 and 1920, and materialized in the Bogotá Futuro Plan 1923-25. The Department of Urban Planning (1933), directed by Karl Brunner, and the Work Plan for the Commemoration of Bogotá’s IV Centennial in 1938 consolidated the ideas for the Garden City. These ideas were made explicit in the Urban Planning Manual of 1939-40. The Modern Movement was outlined in the Municipal Archive and Registry and in 1936 the Faculty of Architecture of the National University in Bogota was established.
Keywords: Modern Urbanism, City Planning, Garden City, Work Plan.
Topic: City theory and history. Las modernas ideas urbanas llegaron a Bogotá en 1917, tres décadas antes del Movimiento Moderno de la Arquitectura. Irrumpieron con los principios de la Ciudad Jardín a través del City Planning estadounidense. Se fundamentaron en La Practica del Urbanismo de Raymond Unwin en 1909. Hicieron evidente el concepto conurbación de Patrick Geddes en 1915. Aprovecharon los Primeros Congresos de Mejoras Nacionales, 1917 y 1920, concretándose en el Plano Bogotá Futuro 1923-25. Con el Departamento de Urbanismo de Bogotá en 1933, el nombramiento de Karl Brunner en su dirección y en la del Plan de Obras para la Conmemoración del IV Centenario de Bogotá en 1938, se consolidaron las ideas de la Ciudad Jardín y se hicieron explícitas en su Manual de Urbanismo de 1939-40.

Full textAbstract:
In what way can the study of megablock typologies in the PRD deliver better insight in terms of process and scales of Chinese urbanization? In the Chinese context, the ‘collective’ has stood central to its urbanisms and processes of urbanization (Lu, 2006). As a state where ownership and territoriality are retained by a socialist system, the basic elements of this (urban) model have remained the creation of collective housing founded on publicly owned land. From the ‘neighbourhood-unit' (邻里单位) and ‘working-unit’ (单位大院), to ‘commodity housing’ (商品房) (Lu, 2006), these practices gradually shape Chinese cities in “Socialism with Chinese characteristics” into what can only be termed ‘megablock’ urban fabrics. Where, ‘Mega’ infrastructure in cities, or better yet, megablocks, embody the antithesis of open and transparent entities. Beyond its organization with the physical network (transportation or public service), they impact the urbanization process in terms of speed and scale. The Chinese urban population has risen from 18% in 1978 to 58.5% in 2017 (National Bureau of Statistics of China, 2018). Between 1991 and 2000, 83% of Shanghai’s residential compounds became enclaves, with the Guangdong Province alone witnessing the formation of 54,000 closed-off compounds, covering more than 70% of the city surface and housing more than 80% of its population (Miao, 2004). Broadly speaking, former and ongoing studies of Chinese urbanization are yet to provide a clear perspective of megablock development, both in terms of the unprecedented context and its spatial impact. This paper aims to address concerns pertaining to the megablock phenomenon: its impacts on urban morphology as well as its prevalent strategies as an urban model. The argument presented here hopes to touch upon the links between planning and the eventual morphological expression of megablock development, and possibly argue for the cultivation of an urbanization practice that needs to become systematic in its sustainable focus and outcomes

A implantação das cidades universitárias brasileiras ao longo dos anos acompanhou o processo de
expansão das cidades brasileiras. Grandes porções de terras distantes dos tecidos urbanos consolidados,
próximas a locais de vegetação nativa, foram destinadas a tais equipamentos. O Campus Samambaia da
Universidade Federal de Goiás se enquadra nesse cenário, que, ao longo de quase quarenta anos,
transformou a paisagem urbana e natural, com impactos negativos para a flora, fauna e à comunidade
universitária, relacionados a usos inadequados e processo de degradação no Bosque Auguste Saint-Hilaire,
unidade de conservação inserida no campus. O tema deste artigo se refere aos projetos de requalificação
dos espaços de preservação ambiental e urbana para o Bosque Auguste Saint-Hilaire: a proposta é
compreender os fatores que levaram ao cenário atual, estabelecendo argumentos arquitetônicos como
soluções, e apresentar proposta de intervenção na área. A metodologia estabelece parâmetros
participativos somados a reflexões sobre estudos de casos. The implementation of Brazilian university towns over the years followed the process of expanding cities.
Large portions of lands, distant of the consolidated urban areas, close to areas of native vegetation, were

flora, fauna and the university community, related to inappropriate uses and degradation process in Auguste
Saint-Hilaire Wood, conservation unit on campus. The theme of this article refers to the rehabilitation projects
of the urban spaces and environmental preservation to the Auguste Saint-Hilaire Wood: the proposal is to
understand the factors that led to the current situation, establishing architectural arguments as solutions and

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo investigar em que medida as ações estatais direcionadas para a
estruturação regional de Brasília estiveram vinculadas aos objetivos nacionais, de desenvolvimento social e
econômico, nas décadas de 1960 e 1970. Apresenta como eixo estrutural a leitura do exercício do
planejamento nacional brasileiro ao longo do período desenvolvimentista. Para isso foi adotada uma
abordagem histórica a respeito de variáveis políticas e econômicas balizadoras da configuração dos
primeiros esforços governamentais criados para tratar de Brasília enquanto elemento de ordenamento
territorial regional e nacional, quais sejam: o Fundo de Desenvolvimento do Distrito Federal (1966) e o
Programa Especial da Região Geoeconômica de Brasília (1975). Verificou-se que, o FUNDEFE e o
PERGEB embora tenham sido criados a partir de uma demanda local e regional, suas diretrizes deixam
claro a forte vinculação existente entre o planejamento regional de Brasília enquanto política governamental
no alcance ao desenvolvimento nacional. Parte das abordagens apresentados neste artigo integram a
pesquisa financiada pelo CNPq/Universal-2010 Urbanismo e Planejamento Urbano-Regional no
Municipalismo Brasileiro. The present study aims to investigate the extent to which state actions directed to the regional structure of Brasilia were linked to national goals related to economic development, in the 1960s and 1970s. It pre
sents as structural axis the reading of the Brazilian national planning exercise during the developmental period. For
it was adopted a historical approach regarding economic and political variables that guided the configuration
of the first governmental efforts designed to Brasilia as part of regional and national spatial planning: the Development Fund of the Federal District (1966) and the Special geo-economic Program of Region of Brasilia (1975). It was found that, although the FU
NDEFE and PERGEB reared from a local and regional demand, its guidelines make clear the strong linkage between the regional planning of Brasilia as government policy in achieving national development.

El bajo río Uruguay es límite entre Uruguay y Argentina. Hoy la cartografía de ambas naciones muestra la
otra margen como un territorio casi vacío.
Sin embargo esto no siempre fue así. A lo largo del tiempo, el río Uruguay une ambas márgenes y sustenta
una estructuración territorial, fuertemente marcada por la geografía. Desde el ámbito privado y público,
misioneros e industriales, la corona española y las nuevas naciones, impulsan y ejecutan procesos de
ocupación. Esta investigación indaga sobre el pasado y presente de este territorio, asociando las
transformaciones y su concreción con el origen de las decisiones que las provocan y materializan. Concluye
que el río no estructura un único territorio, sino varios, cuyos límites responden a geometrías variables,
conformados por la confluencia de diversas estrategias de dominio, ocupación, separación o integración,
tomadas desde fuera del bajo Uruguay o por las diversas culturas que lo han habitado. The low part of de Uruguay river is the limit between Uruguay and Argentina. Nowadays, cartography of both
nations show the other side as an almost empty territory.
However, this was not always like that. Over time, the Uruguay River joins both margins and supports a
territorial structure, strongly marked by geography. From the private and public fields, missionaries and
industrialists, the Spanish Crown first and the new nations later, stimulate and execute processes of
occupation. This research explores the past and present of this territory, involving transformations and its
realization with the origin of the decisions that cause and materialize them. Concludes that the river does not
structure a single territory, but several, whose boundaries correspond to variable geometries, formed by the
confluence of diverse strategies of domain, occupation, separation or integration, taken from outside the low
Uruguay or from the various cultures which have inhabited it.

Full textAbstract:
En los últimos años, la disciplina urbanística advierte el desafío de reinventar el territorio desde la comprensión de sus lógicas de construcción. La Ganadería como sistema de producción ha incidido en los procesos de ocupación. Asimismo, su construcción cultural y natural lo convirtió en el paisaje icónico de la Nación argentina. Estos antecedentes nos permiten reconocer al paisaje ganadero como un recurso a interpretar, proteger y proyectar. En este marco, el presente trabajo reflexiona acerca de la posibilidad de articular las nociones de patrimonio ambiental y paisaje cultural a través del estudio del paisaje tanto en su escala territorial como urbana. La metodología empleada consiste en la aproximación estratégica, a partir de un grupo de casos emblemáticos. En esta dirección se analizan cuatro casos emplazados en las costas de los ríos Paraná y Uruguay que comparten la producción de extracto de carne. In the last years, the town-planning discipline warns the challenge of reinventing the territory from the comprehension of its logics of construction. The Cattle as system of production has affected in the occupation processes. Also, its cultural and natural became the iconic scenery of the Argentine Nation. These precedents allow us to recognize the cattle landscape as a resource to be interpreted, to be protected and to be projected. In this frame, the present work reflects on the possibility of articulating the notions of environmental heritage and cultural landscape across the study of the scenery both in its territorial and urban scale. The used methodology consists of an strategic approach, from a group of emblematic cases. In this direction there are analyzed four cases located on the coasts of the Parana and Uruguay rivers that share the production of extract of meat.

In the process of urbanization in China, the biggest challenge is how to transform the ‘town’ into the ‘city’. It is
also a vital link in urbanization. The Chinese government put forward the strategy which aims on speeding up
the urbanization development in November 2013. Meanwhile, China has selected some pilot towns, which
are intended to become cities in the end, for tentative transformation. Zhejiang Province, which ranks top
among the country in economic strength, amount of village and development level and quantity, has become
an important national pilot carrier. So far there are 27 pilot towns. By analyzing the development situation of
27 pilot towns, this paper analyzes this particular phenomenon of urbanization and summarize its
characteristics.

Full textAbstract:
Over the past decade, Connecticut has made a strong push for transit-oriented development (TOD). In some parts of the state, however, TOD is as much returning to past forms of urbanism as building anew, as cities along the Metro-North New Haven Main Line were largely developed before the car. Using a mixed methods approach of document review, stakeholder interviews, and geospatial analysis, we studied challenges and obstacles to TOD along the Metro-North New Haven Main Line. Several station areas, TOD zones, and track sections are within CIRCA's 1% 2050 flood projections for sea level rise. While none of the top 200 bus stops are among the 192 CT Transit stops in the flood zone, 45 federally subsidized affordable housing complexes included in the National Housing Preservation Database (NHPD) are within 60-ft of the 1% flood in 2050. This project produced a detailed geodatabase of land use around transit stations; assessment of obstacles and potential of TOD, and best practices recommendations.
