Papit, Judith L. "Minoan Town Planning". Diss., Temple University Libraries, 2013. http://cdm16002.contentdm.oclc.org/cdm/ref/collection/p245801coll10/id/214820.

"Prehistoric Town Planning in Crete" was published in 1950 by Richard Hutchinson. He determined there was no evidence of town planning on Minoan Crete except for two instances. Hutchinson's approach compared the layout of the few excavated Minoan towns to other contemporary sites, such as Kahun, Egypt and Harrappa, India. These towns were laid out in grid-like squares, on flat, level ground. Compared to these sites the settlements on Crete appeared as an amalgamation of disorganized, organic growth. More than half a century has elapsed between Hutchinson's article and this study. Within that time many more Minoan sites and towns have been excavated and published. This greater corpus offers an opportunity to examine Minoan town planning with a new eye. This greater number of excavated Minoan towns allows for a study of town planning by comparing Minoan communities to one another. When an investigation is done comparing sites within Crete only, a pattern starts to emerge. To accomplish this analysis nine elements of Minoan town planning are defined, examined at individual sites, and compared among settlements. These nine elements are: 1. A street system adhering to the natural contours of the land 2. Buildings arranged in irregular, attached blocks defined by the street system 3. A large plateia or centrally located community court easily accessible from all parts of the town 4. Other open public spaces throughout the settlement 5. An elite building near the plateia 6. Public buildings in which there is no habitation 7. Semi-public buildings 8. Built fortifications 9. Extramural dependencies, which are structural features or natural areas outside the borders of the town proper but are an integral part of the community This comparison elucidates a very specific and existing type of Minoan town planning. It began at least as early as Early Minoan II and reached its apogee in Late Minoan I. What at first glance looks random, is not. Minoan towns were laid out within the constraints of the local landscape and with the desired aesthetic. The result was a lifestyle in LM I far beyond subsistence living.

Earnest, Royce M. "Elbert Peets| Town Planning and Ecology, 1915-1968". Thesis, The University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee, 2017. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10273103.
Elbert Peets (1886-1968) designed some significant town plans in the early to mid-twentieth century. His design work was successful and well regarded at the time, and his plans for Greendale, Wisconsin and Park Forest, Illinois were influential for post-World War II suburban developments. These town plans, and others such as Wyomissing, Pennsylvania and Washington Highlands, Wisconsin have continued to be vibrant and successful neighborhoods. Peets also wrote widely, and most notably was the co-author of The American Vitruvius; An Architect’s Handbook of Urban Design. However, though these contributions were notable, Peets has been largely neglected in the historiography of twentieth century urban and landscape studies. Histories of the period have tended to focus on a few heroic figures and major movements like the advent of International Style modernism. This study adds to the history of the period by showing that the appearance of a monolithic narrative of the time is incomplete and that including alternative points of view like Peets’s provides both a more accurate and more interesting history.
There are three primary arguments for this study. The first is that the quality of the work itself merits recognition. Beyond noting that there was interesting work being done, the qualities that made Peets’s work notable, emphasis on user-centered humanistic designs, inclusion of site-specific ecological features, and concentration on the primacy of social streets as the centerpiece of neighborhood plans, were distinctly at odds with the dominant narrative of the modernist agenda. The second argument, and the one that has not received attention, is that the plans incorporate sensitivity to ecological concerns that grew from the growth of scientific forestry, the rise of ecological science, and the growing conservation movement at the beginning of the twentieth century. Peets was exposed to these trends from his education at Harvard’s Landscape Program, and to a greater degree than his contemporaries, he incorporated those concepts into his town plans in the form of riparian protection zones and greenways. Finally, this study will interrogate the reasons that Peets has been overlooked. His association with the Garden City movement and with a precedent-based design approach at the time that European modernism as advocated by Le Corbusier, Gropius, and Hilberseimer resulted in his being associated with a traditionalism and historicism that was falling out of fashion. This study will recognize Peets’s contributions, and more broadly will investigate how the vagaries of fashion in design trends result in a significant figure being overlooked.
This study will challenge the dominant narrative of the rise of modernism by recognizing an alternative and competing path for urban design. Peets’s work, along with other critiques of the modernist agenda that noted the anti-urbanist implications of modernist urban renewal and its devaluing of social streets, illustrates an overlooked and valuable episode in the trajectory of mid-century urban planning practice and urban theory.

French town planning, born at the beginning of the 20th century, seeks scientific bases and a method. The abundant and varied use of biological images brings epistemological convenience but also confusions. The ideas of evolution and organism induce in town planners representations of memory and urban history which stimulate debate and which reveal the difficulty of laying down the laws of the urban with certainty. The idea of law, approximated to time and the life, makes it possible to touch one of the major ambiguities of discourse : the passage from the law of urban development and functioning, which is considered to be natural, to normative or prescriptive law. It is in the conception of urban political time that these problems arise. And the narrative of the city, written or implicit, is the object where the issues of the debate are best read. We study here the texts of town planners by making them dialogue with each other, and by referring to the philosophers, to whom town planners sometimes refer, in order to clarify as much as possible the representations of time and of life which govern the elaboration of the the knowledge and know-how of the town planner from the 1900s to the 1970s

Rogalski, Landrot Boris de. "La fabrique matérielle et symbolique de la ville : le cas de Villeurbanne de 1900 à 1950". Thesis, Lyon, École normale supérieure, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014ENSL0893/document.
My thesis, entitled “The material and symbolic urban fabric : the case of the city of Villeurbanne from 1900 to 1950” aims to analyse the mechanisms of urban fabric in order to highlight the role of political actors and the influence of urban experiences that lie outside of the municipality, thanks to which urban projects have been developed and spread in order to adapt Villeurbanne to an urban model. The late nineteenth century was a period of identity tensions in Villeurbanne in reaction to the project of annexation of the city by his powerful neighbour, Lyon. Municipal Council spread identity discourses in order to distinguish Villeurbanne and Lyon, and to mobilise inhabitants and convince politicians to reject the annexation. Jules Grandclément, socialist mayor from 1908 to 1922, rationalized the municipal management and introduced innovations to reform the city befor 1914. World War I disrupted the municipal level, but stimulated municipal intervention in urban planification. During the preparation of urban plan, municipal councillors represented Villeurbanne, not as a simple suburb, but as a city, and they organized exchanges of urban kowledges with other municipalities and especially with municipal experts of Lyon. Mayor Lazare Goujon (1924-1935) was directly related to the continuity of the initiatives of his predecessor. He innovated by introducing an ambitious urban policy that modified the urban morphology giving to Vileurbanne its urban attributes. The audience of urban transformations was such that Villeurbanne was represented as an example of modern city during the 1930s. Upon arrival at the head of the municipality in 1935, the Communists denounced the expensive urban policy of its predecessor, and they implemented a local policy in the context of the Popular Front. The political color of the municipality during the inter-war period was erased during the World War II in favor of the ideology of the Petain’s government. The real estate market slowed since the 1930s and stopped during World War II, but was reactivated by the State housing policy in 1950s. This State intervention in the field of urban planning expertise created conflicts but mostly generated a gap between the material and symbolic fabric of the city at the local level

The cities of Sweden have been planned differently during different times in history, following different methods, visions and goals for the cities. During the 17th century the main focus was on trading and therefore the cities were planned on the basis of that, resulting in a simple way with tolls around the city. Cities of great importance for the defence were equipped with fortification on the outskirts. Many cities were founded during this era, not spontaneously, but for defending and were therefore placed in strategic ways. The King had plans of expanding the kingdom and to be able to do so it would require cities for regulating and administrating purposes. During the 19th century people were tired of seeing the schematic cities burning down and to avoid that boulevards were laid to prevent fires from spreading. It was also during this period that railways were laid in many cities. More and more public buildings were built in a monumental style and the cities were made representative – railroads would serve as the front of the city and the neighbourhoods surrounding the railroad would be adorned with lavish designs. Furthermore, industries were established during this time consequently leading to a larger population and also a degraded environment. During the 20th century the government started taking a larger responsibility for social and housing policies. The government wanted to solve the problems of the previous century and was able to do so after implementing extensive reforms. Subsidized loans implemented by the government putting constraints on building designs, new opportunities of detail control and a rational urban planning made it possible to eradicate most of the problems encountered during the 19th century by the mid-1900s and thereby raising the standard of housing. During the ages other countries have inspired and affected the political situation and also the visions of urban planners resulting in the way regulations have been designed. The goal has always been to create a good city. Wars, immigration, emigration and economic crises within and outside of Sweden have also been causes of issues that have been solved through politics, urban planning and regulations.
Tocquer, Nicolas. "La nature urbaine selon Ildefonso Cerdá : de "l'idée urbanisatrice" à "l'urbanisation ruralisée "". Thesis, Brest, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018BRES0085/document.
The notion of “ruralized urbanization”, present in Ildefonso Cerdá’s (1815-1876) first writings, plays a more and more important role in his work. At the end of his life, it also was the subject of a treaty that never reached us. With this concept, the Catalan Engineer, known for his plan of the extension of Barcelona, aims, in a hygienist perspective, to improve health conditions in the city by the introduction of a green system. He also wants to think the urban development and the opening up of Spanish territory by a total urbanization that would transcend boundaries between rural and urban spaces. This thesis attempts to trace the genesis of this concept by exploring Cerda’s life, the advent of the “urbanization idea” and the manner in which it was achieved in Barcelona, in the so typical form of the Eixample area. Whilst intending to adapt the contemporary city, based on the movement, to the industrial society needs, Cerdá takes the roman road, inspired by the Antiquity. The territorial organization he recommends, based on urban spreading, orthogonal structure and space uniformity – what “ruralized urbanization” really means – gives an up-to-date dimension to the ancient models of space occupation and colonisation. This analysis of this concept encourages a new view on Barcelona and on its extension, surely synonymous of modernity and modernism, but which principles come ironically from the countryside and from the past. Considering the evolution of the “ruralized urbanization” is the very subject of the two first parts of the General theory of urbanization (1867), a translation into French is given in the appendix, what could allow to a francophone reader to experiment the depth of a still unrecognized thinking by himself

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: South Africa has a housing backlog of approximately 900 000 houses. The government and non-government organizations tries to provide housing for the disadvantage people of our land through sustainable development in an attempt control the housing crises. This study makes the point that sustainable development not nessereraly means the same as acceptable development. In order to provide acceptable housing with in the contexts of sustainable development, it is necessary to give more in depth and equal consideration to the social, economical and environmental aspects of sustainable development. This study focus on what is meant by the above mentioned aspects of sustainable development and what the direct and indirect impacts will be if it is not taken into consideration during the planning and construction faze of low-cost housing. Even though this study doesn’t provide the solutions to providing acceptable housing, it does make a few suggestions on how to obtain acceptable housing, not only for the people directly involved but also for the greater community of South Africa. One of the suggestions that, according to this study, should strongly be considered is the use of alternative building methods such as straw and clay, not only for the obvious environmental benefits but also for the economical and social benefits.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Suid-Afrika sit tans met ’n behuisings-agterstand van ongeveer 900 000 huise. Die regering en nie-regerings organinsasies poog om deur die proses van volhoubare ontwikkeling, lae-koste behuising vir die behoeftige mense van die land te voorsien om sodoende die behuisingskrisis aan te spreek. Hierdie werkstuk maak die standpunt dat volhoubare ontwikkeling nie noodwendig sinoniem is met aanvaarbare behuising nie. Om aanvaarbare behuising te voorsien moet die huise binne die raamwerk van volhoubare ontwikkeling gebou word, maar daar moet meer in diepte gekyk word na, en gelyke hoeveelheid aandag aan alle sosiale-, ekonomiese- en omgewingsfaktore gegee word. Die werkstuk kyk in diepte na wat bedoel word met bogenoemde drie aspekte van volhoubare ontwikkeling en wat die direkte en indirekte gevolge is as dit nie in ag geneem word tydens die beplannings- en konstruksiefases van lae-koste behuising nie. Alhoewel die werkstuk nie defnitiewe oplossings bied vir die voorsiening van aanvaarbare behuising nie, word ‘n paar voorstelle gemaak van hoe behuisingsprojekte meer aanvaarbaar gemaak kan word, nie net vir die begunstigdes en owerhede nie, maar ook vir die res van die samelewing. Een van die voorstelle wat volgens die werkstuk baie sterk oorweeg behoort te word, is dat alternatiewe boumetodes (soos strooibale en klei) gebruik moet word, nie net vir die van selfsprekende ekologiese voordele wat dit inhou nie, maar ook vir ekonomiese en sosiale voordele.

This work presents a description-contextual study about the city of Curitiba origins, in its urban and architectural development process, since 1853 - the year of the province of Parana political emancipation, until the first decades of the 20th century, which was the city modernization phase. It objectifies to raise, describe and analyse some works considered demarcation in this development. The Three Squares: Tiradentes (Largo da Matriz), Rui Barbosa (Campo do Olho D'Água), Eufrásio Correia (Largo da Estação) and Passeio Público, in their features of creation and importance regarding the city landscape, and the internal and external influences from those who planned and executed them. The methodical design demanded documentary and photographic survey besides the mapping existing in public and private files, and through the analysis of documents and contents, the research was accomplished. The characters, facts, works and historical situations were brought out as relevant to the urban and architectural development of Parana capital city, considered important in the outline of the contours of this city, considered the urban planning model.

Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais
This work, entitled Inclusion of anthology of ideas from the english Garden-City into Modern Brazilian urban design: Águas de São Pedro developed in the Graduate Course in Urban Engineering at the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar), presents a study of the urban plan of Águas de São Pedro town, state of São Paulo, and its relation to the Garden-City s concepts, structured in four different parts. In its first part is given a brief overview of the history of post-Industrial Revolution urbanism, identifying the main urban typologies originating during this time and focusing especially on the Garden City typology from its English origin to its worldwide diffusion. From here, the study delves in the appropriation of this typology by brazilian designers (architects and engineers), articulated with economic, political, social and cultural analysis of this country in the first decades of the XXth Century. The third part analyses the universe of professional responsible for the creation of the city plan of Águas de São Pedro, urban engineer Jorge de Macedo Vieira, identifying his main influences and his productive evolution. Also, others professionals involved with this project are included. Finally, in the fourth part is done a comprehensive study of the adopted plan for the Watering town, along with its due empirical analysis, electing, from there, the elements that relate it to the Garden-City typology. This research therefore adds itself to others that study the use of the Garden-City urban typology in Brazil, contributing in this manner to extend knowledge about a school that participated actively in the history of brazilian urbanism.
Este trabalho intitulado Incorporação do ideário da Garden-City inglesa na urbanística moderna brasileira: Águas de São Pedro , desenvolvido no Programa de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia Urbana (PPG-EU) da Universidade Federal de São Carlos (UFSCar), apresenta o estudo do plano urbanístico da cidade de Águas de São Pedro (São Paulo) e sua relação com os conceitos da Garden-City inglesa, estruturando-se em quatro partes diferentes. Na primeira parte do trabalho, procura-se percorrer, através de um breve panorama, a história do urbanismo pós-Revolução Industrial, identificando as principais tipologias urbanísticas originárias desta época e atentando-se, especialmente, à tipologia Cidade-Jardim, desde a origem na Inglaterra à sua difusão mundial. Na parte subseqüente, recorre-se ao estudo da apropriação desta tipologia em solo nacional articulado com uma análise econômica, política, social e cultural do Brasil nas primeiras décadas do século XX. A terceira parte adentra no universo do profissional responsável pela criação do projeto urbano de Águas de São Pedro, o engenheiro urbanista Jorge de Macedo Vieira, identificando suas principais influências assim como sua evolução produtiva. Do mesmo modo, outros profissionais envolvidos no projeto foram analisados E, finalmente, na quarta parte, faz-se o entendimento do plano adotado no balneário, com devida análise empírica, elegendo-se, a partir daí, os elementos que o aproximem dos conceitos procedentes da tipologia Cidade-Jardim. Assim, essa pesquisa agrega-se a outras que estudam a utilização da tipologia urbanística Garden- City (Cidade-Jardim) no Brasil, contribuindo para ampliar os conhecimentos sobre uma escola que se fez presente na história do urbanismo nacional.
Rahmoun, Mohammed. "Les colonies de l'industrie en Algérie : histoire et patrimoine de la cité minière de Béni-Saf (Mokta-El-Hadid, XIXe-XXe siècle)". Thesis, Paris 1, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016PA01H020.
Mining company towns emerged in Algeria in the second half of the nineteenth century. They were established by an extractive iron industry developed by colonization to support the development of steel industry in France. Thanks to the Algerian pure iron-ore, Mokta-el-Hadid became a powerful mining company, which did not hesitate to reorganize the iron market in France. French employers imported to Algeria their production means and at the same time their architectures and their ways of inhabiting. This thesis proposes a deep reflection on the history of the colonial mining industry in Algeria and its urban settlement modes. It evokes the ideological and practical conditions of the modes of action of colonial employers on social groups and their living space. The company towns built in Algeria between 1870 and 1940 responded to economic considerations framed by entrepreneurial and colonial morals, marked by the permanent establishment of a European working population in Algeria. Analysis of the urban space of the mining town of Beni-Saf, in northwest Algeria, shows a wealth interesting of constructive typologies. Its urban morphology is largely characterized by the articulation between the reproduction of the working mine organisation, the development of working forces and the pervasiveness of colonialist ideology. The rapid urbanization of the post-colonial time marks more radically this morphology by the volumetry of new buildings, the social lifestyle and the non-conservative policy of historical buildings. It is thus necessary to examine the practices and the representations of colonial industrial heritage in Algeria
Deland, Mats. "The Social City : Middle-way approaches to housing and sub-urban golvernmentality in southern Stockholm, 1900-1945". Doctoral thesis, Stockholm University, Department of Economic History, 2001. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:su:diva-1240.
This dissertation deals with the period bridging the era of extreme housing shortages in Stockholm on the eve of industrialisation and the much admired programmes of housing provision that followed after the second world war, when Stockholm district Vällingby became an example for underground railway-serviced ”new towns”. It is argued that important changes were made in the housing and town planning policy in Stockholm in this period that paved the way for the successful ensuing period. Foremost among these changes was the uniquely developed practice of municipal leaseholding with the help of site leasehold rights (Erbbaurecht).
The study is informed by recent developments in Foucauldian social research, which go under the heading ’governmentality’. Developments within urban planning are understood as different solutions to the problem of urban order. To a large extent, urban and housing policies changed during the period from direct interventions into the lives of inhabitants connected to a liberal understanding of housing provision, to the building of a disciplinary city, and the conduct of ’governmental’ power, building on increased activity on behalf of the local state to provide housing and the integration and co-operation of large collectives. Municipal leaseholding was a fundamental means for the implementation of this policy.
When the new policies were introduced, they were limited to the outer parts of the city and administered by special administrative bodies. This administrative and spatial separation was largely upheld throughout the period, and represented as the parallel building of a ’social’ outer city, while things in the inner ’mercantile’ city proceeded more or less as before. This separation was founded in a radical difference in land holding policy: while sites in the inner city were privatised and sold at market values, land in the outer city was mostly leasehold land, distributed according to administrative – and thus politically decided – priorities.
These differences were also understood and acknowledged by the inhabitants. Thorough studies of the local press and the organisational life of the southern parts of the outer city reveals that the local identity was tightly connected with the representations connected to the different land holding systems. Inhabitants in the south-western parts of the city, which in this period was still largely built on private sites, displayed a spatial understanding built on the contradictions between centre and periphery. The inhabitants living on leaseholding sites, however, showed a clear understanding of their position as members of model communities, tightly connected to the policy of the municipal administration. The organisations on leaseholding sites also displayed a deep co-operation with the administration. As the analyses of election results show, the inhabitants also seemed to have felt a greater degree of integration with the society at large, than people living in other parts of the city. The leaseholding system in Stockholm has persisted until today and has been one of the strongest in the world, although the local neo-liberal politicians are currently disposing it off.

Places of openness and cultural mixing, cities feed fantasies and utopias. They swarm, taking over the countryside. The subject of investigation here is the city in antiquity, Carthage in Gustave Flaubert's Salammbo, and the Egyptian city of Abou during the times of the Pharaohs in Naguib Mahfouz' Pharaoh's Lover. The thesis examines the representation of the city in the novels of Gustave Flaubert (1821-1880), and Naguib Mahfouz, the master of Arabic literature (1911-2006). Our starting point is the following question, "What is the importance of the city for the two novelists?" The analysis brings together comparative, historic and thematic perspectives. It show cases the creative manner in which Mahfouz received French 19th century novels

Inoue, Luciana Massami. "A iniciativa privada e o mercado formal de habitação para o trabalhador na cidade de São Paulo, 1942-1964". Universidade de São Paulo, 2010. http://www.teses.usp.br/teses/disponiveis/16/16133/tde-08092010-093927/.
The aim of this research was to verify the existence of big and small private capitalist entrepreneurs in the housing production for workers in São Paulo, between 1942 and 1964. The housing problem is old and it is due very much to the fact that the worker never was fully integrated to Brazilian society. The formal and informal labor market developed simultaneously as the same way it occured with the formal and informal housing market. The major historic features in the period were: the Second World War, the debates about the topic of development, external debt, inflation (that affected strongly the consumption pattern of the workers, their capacity to save money, and at the same time the whole building industry complex), the industrialization, and the internal migration. In the city of São Paulo, there was the phenomena of verticalization downtown and horizontalization at the peripheries, along the metropolization process. Specialized bibliography was studied, and as primary sources, we have consulted the collections of economy periodicals and the real state advertisement in the newspapers. After 1942, the private enterprise stopped to invest in the rental market for a short time, however, it did not abandon the prior housing options of investments before, as shantytowns or cortiços and workers´ villages. The private enterprise has acted mainly in four fields of investment with the focus on the workers housing: sale of one or two storey houses; kitchnettes; condominium buildings, and periphery lots.
