The cityscape of contemporary Tokyo is undergoing a dramatic transformation caused by a proliferation of technology, such as the rapid mass transit network and the advanced telecommunication system. On the one hand conventional urban design criteria such as physical proximity and spatiotemporal consistency are challenged or even rendered obsolete; on the other hand many new characteristics of the city are being established, and some of them have become prominent criteria in comprehending today's Tokyo. In order to apprehend this process of transformation and its impact on the city's form, and eventually to respond to the new situation, it is necessary to identify those unconventional characteristics brought to Tokyo by the proliferation of technology. In this thesis those peculiarities of contemporary Tokyo are pinpointed through a process of analogy with cyberspace, which bears tremendous resemblances to Tokyo. Contemporary Tokyo is found to contain two cities: the visible chaotic city and the invisible ordered city. In the visible city, the intonation of criteria used to form the mental image of a city is transformed; time is given importance over space; schizophrenia is a persistent theme; the boundary between human and machine is blurred; hierarchies and distinctions among objects are eliminated through codification. In the invisible city, the pattern of city's evolution is prescribed as piecemeal decentralized spontaneous growth; each node contains all the information of the whole system - the part equals the whole; connectivity becomes the prominent feature of a place - it promotes concentration and deconcentration simultaneously, and replaces Euclidean geometry with topology; layers of matrices cast ubiquitous control and circumscription over the whole city. The two cities rely on one another yet never compromise with each other; together they lay down the affordances and constraints of the city, and give it a new form. Both the visible city and the invisible city are the offspring of the Japanese culture of congestion, of which a full embrace or a total rejection will only cause lament.

The broad aim of this thesis is to investigate whether the regulatory environment in an urban setting can be utilized to nurture appropriate urban forms. The word 'form' here includes both physical characteristics, and the use of the resultant urban artifacts and spaces by people. The thesis argues that appropriateness and 'good fit' in urban form can be best addressed through an understanding of the common denominator which organizes urban life, i.e. urban meaning perceived as a shared sensibility. In search of this elusive and somewhat nebulous sensibility, a redefinition of the word 'vernacular' has been broached and developed as the pivotal theoretical construct. Consequently, the conception of a contemporary urban vernacular has formed a daunting preoccupation, and this has been further expanded to include the delineation of urban 'types' which evolve, mature, and differentiate, influenced greatly by the processes of control and change. As Nelson Goodman notes,' ... knowing cannot be exclusively or even primarily a matter of determining what is true. Discovery often amounts to finding a fit.' He goes on to add that this fit is a result not of belief but of the advancement of understanding. This thesis will attempt to develop an understanding of peoples' relationship with their city environment, with the eventual object of enhancing the fit between urban vernacular 'types' and control mechanisms which regulate them. In almost any city, especially those of the third world, urban form is an outcome of processes, both within and outside of institutionalized regulatory mechanisms. This is, in turn, a result of the complex interplay of social, economic and political forces. It is beyond the scope of this thesis to address these issues comprehensively. Therefore the focus will be on developing an approach which relates urban vernacular types, to the issues of attitude and lifestyle, the mechanics of control, the articulation of roles and tasks within society, as they are expressed through the built form. I have tried to illustrate some of the arguments developed in the first part of this thesis through a case analysis of an urban vernacular type in Delhi, the capital of India. An initial foray has also been made to develop a method for field research in urban vernaculars. The hypothesis forwarded is that by understanding the nature of socio-politico-administrative control. i.e. - the formal regulatory framework, the informal processes and tacit conventions - and vernacular types (people and places), as well as the relationship between the two, it is possible to arrive at an effective orientation for regulation which could nurture appropriate urban forms that would be supportive crucibles for living.

Based on ethnographic fieldwork among the individuals, groups, and institutions that comprise Moscow's contemporary restaurant industry, this dissertation explores the production and consumption of Moscow's postsocialist culinary culture and landscape. Approaching cuisine as both a social product and a cultural process, I examine the agents and avenues of the local globalization of culinary culture. In my analysis, these "agents" include restaurateurs, chefs, cooks, professional associations, and educators and educational institutions, among others. I attend to the various meanings, practices, and contexts of their work, as well as to the political, aesthetic, and performative dimensions of cooking, cuisine and restaurants. I also examine how Russian consumers engage with and make sense of Moscow's emerging culinary culture and restaurant scene. I see these producers of cuisine and restaurants as authors of the capital's postsocialist consumer landscape and intermediaries between the local and the global. Articulating global culinary culture into local contexts, these cultural producers redeploy contemporary and historical culinary practices, aesthetics, and forms as representations of culture on both local and global stages. I call these practices culinary strategies and argue that they are vehicles through which new social actors struggle over the meanings and values at stake in the marketization of Russian society. Cuisine and restaurants are thus contested sites for the construction of Moscow as a world-class city and the production, dissemination, and negotiation of community, nation, identity, and class. I suggest that cuisine and restaurants play important roles in processes of globalization, serving as sites for reproduction and contestation of global hegemonies of form. Drawing on and expanding work in the anthropologies of food, visual communication, postsocialism, and globalization, my project suggests how ethnography and micro-analysis of the visual, sensual, performative, and structural dimensions of cultural production can open critical understandings of the complex and shifting interactions between local, national, and global contexts.

Повний текст джерелаFollowing decades of sweeping social change, a 'new' Thai middle class emerged to become the main agents of the mass demonstrations which have rocked Bangkok for the better part of the past four years. Yet, the academic literature reveals a marked paucity of data on the urban middle class, and on Bangkok's systems of stratification. This dissertation addresses this lacuna with research based on eighteen months of ethnographic fieldwork in Bangkok. My investigations suggest that an indigenous spatial-symbolic matrix, encapsulated in centralising and hierarchising mandalic principles, continues to inform both cultural understandings of stratification and the socio-spatial structure of Bangkok. However, traditional status distinctions are now pervaded by the idiom of material wealth introduced by the forces of global markets. Today, life in Bangkok is framed by a hierarchy of affluence which echoes the numerical precision of the premodern sakdina system of status differentiation. Accordingly, I argue that the notion of the 'urban-rural divide' popularly used to describe the conflict obscures a more complex reality in which city and countryside are linked by reciprocal relations within both urban and national systems of status and class. This is clearly discernable in the nature of everyday interclass relations in Bangkok which have been exacerbated by contemporary diminishment and marginalisation of upcountry Thais by the urban middle classes. It is an incendiary dynamic that has been exploited to tremendous effect in the current political power struggle. I demonstrate that the middle class is significantly stratified internally, and explore how middle class culture and identity are drawn in large part from their understandings of status practices of elites. Much of this takes place in the public spaces of the city's scores of shopping malls, which articulate a local vernacular of prestige where hierarchical power relations are inscribed in urban space. Structural constraints and the societal privileging of wealth and connections are constant challenges to middle class aspirations for upward mobility, and the Bangkokian middle class harbours no illusions of Thai society as a meritocracy. This disenchantment has been channelled into a churning politics of resentment with demonstrably explosive potential. Ultimately, however, I argue that middle class discontent will contribute little to reform while the majority of individuals feel their only avenue for social mobility is to negotiate a pre-existing system of stratification which many perceive as unjust.

Resumo: Esta tese trata sobre a imagem da cidade na fotografia urbana contemporânea, considerando-a como uma herança das tradições de representação da cidade que se desenvolveram após o advento do dispositivo fotográfico, na primeira metade do século XIX. Neste sentido, objetiva-se estabelecer a relação entre os campos de conhecimento da Arte e da Fotografia a fim de compreender os desdobramentos da construção de uma representação fotográfica da cidade, sobretudo entre as décadas de 1960 a 1990. Com esse propósito, discute-se a noção de fotografia contemporânea, uma categoria que, apesar de ainda indefinida, está presente nas abordagens realizadas pelos pesquisadores que constituem o referencial teórico analisado. Em especial, investiga-se o interesse, por parte de artistas e fotógrafos alemães e norte-americanos, de uma aproximação visual com elementos geralmente qualificados como banais triviais ou ordinários do cotidiano urbano
Abstract: This Thesis disserts on city images in urban contemporary photography as a heritage of the city representation tradition, developed after the advent of the photographic device in the first half of the 19th century. Our objective is to establish the relationship between the knowledge of Art and Photography to understand the evolving of the photographic representation of the city, mainly between the 1960's and the 1990's. With that in mind, the concept of contemporary photography is discussed. The category, although still undefined, is present in the researched bibliography. The interest showed by German and North American photographers and artists in a visual approach to elements usually considered trivial or ordinary in the urban day to day was particularly investigated

Повний текст джерелаOver the past fifteen years, a convergence of factors of global impact has motivated new understandings and organisations of economic and urban order. This is the background leading up to the emergence of the \"creative economy \" and, more recently, the \"creative city\". In Brazil, the bibliography of both subjects is still scarce, the same applying to their potential benefits to the urban context. The present thesis aims to respond fundamentally to two questions: to draw the features of a creative city and to analyse if São Paulo could claim to be one. Therefore, this work encompasses a conceptual review; the proposal of a driving concept of creative city; an experimentation of its suitability to three cities; and a practical analysis of its adherence to the city of São Paulo, at two levels: comprehensive and in--depth, using contemporary art as a tool for analysis.

Повний текст джерелаThis work aims at establishing a conversation with the prose of Marçal Aquino, a contemporary Brazilian author. As happens in all conversations, it involves the exchanging of experiences, memories and inventions. The stories told by this author lead us to reflect upon our current way of life: Are we hardened by the daily struggle for survival? If the spotlight is on productivity, is there any room left for creativity? With our minds focused on efficiency, what is the role of the written language? Pen strokes in a city of concrete. As we track down our existential conditions and differences, some people may hide, others come forward, and still others are summoned. These are the building blocks of this research, which entails relations of proximity and distancing, connections and empty spaces, underlying facts, readings and texts. The main objective of this work is to bring out the many possibilities of life present in Marçal Aquino s work. Thus, the focus is on discovering more pen strokes, rather than giving answers, for answers make us reproduce the given model, whereas pen lines are indications of the life found in his writings and which can impel us towards our own pursuits
Este trabalho é uma conversa com a prosa de Marçal Aquino, autor da literatura brasileira contemporânea. Como toda conversa, dá-se num vai-e-vem de experiência, memória e invenção. As histórias contadas por esse autor levam a pensar os modos de vida contemporâneos: com a luta pela sobrevivência, como estaríamos embrutecendo? Com a atenção retida à produtividade, por onde vão os gestos inéditos? Com a preocupação voltada para a eficiência, qual a força da escrita? Rastros em uma cidade asfaltada. Ao rastrear nossas condições e variações de existência, uns interlocutores se escondem, alguns aparecem, outros são convocados e, assim, esta pesquisa se constrói nas relações de proximidade e distanciamento, nos encadeamentos e vãos, nas entrelinhas de acontecimentos, leituras e escrita. A intenção deste trabalho é perceber as possibilidades de vida que atravessam a obra de Marçal Aquino. Portanto, o foco deste estudo está menos em encontrar resoluções do que em ver mais pegadas, pois as primeiras fazem-nos reproduzir o que já está dado, é caso encerrado, enquanto as últimas são indícios de que vidas passam por ali e nos empurram a uma perseguição viva

The concept of Moving Curatorial Project ARTMAP is a result of theoretical research and reflection about municipal exhibition spaces and possibility of presentation of the contemporary art in these spaces. To test if this curatorial project is realizable and if there are conditions to continue it, a first trial was implemented in Aveiro. A curated international exhibition, entitled “A Poética do Visual" occupied two municipal and two private gallery spaces and brought together 111 artists from 25 different countries. The art event was carried out in collaboration with the Municipality of Aveiro and the University of Aveiro, and involved several private cultural spaces in the city. This first experience showed that there are all conditions for the presentation of contemporary art in small and medium size locations in Portugal, and for this project to be replicated in other regions of the country.

Повний текст джерелаEsta dissertação analisa a cidade na contemporaneidade - especificamente o Setor Sul de Uberlândia, através das particularidades encontradas nas cidades médias, sua dispersão urbana, e busca diretrizes urbanísticas para melhoria da qualidade de vida da população. O título do trabalho, Pensar, Construir e Viver a cidade, reflete a estrutura do texto que subdivide a dissertação em seus três capítulos. Inicialmente, Pensar a Cidade compreende uma análise histórica da urbanização do seu território e sua evolução política e econômica, entendendo o processo de segregação sócio-espacial das classes de renda dentro do espaço intraurbano da cidade. Nestes termos, caracteriza-se a sociedade contemporânea, seus modos de vida e diversidade de perfis e a reconfiguração das centralidades através das novas formas de segregação. Busca-se definir conceitos de urbanidade, as relações com o processo de segregação e fragmentação do espaço urbano e ainda entender a influência do mercado imobiliário nas localizações dos empreendimentos. Construir a Cidade identifica a forma de atuação dos agentes públicos, privados e dos movimentos sociais na construção da cidade contemporânea e analisa alguns empreendimentos da região em estudo, a fim de compreender, através da morfologia urbana, a atuação do desenho urbano na construção da cidade contemporânea e a pertinência da legislação urbanística. Em Viver a Cidade, propõem-se diretrizes gerais para urbanização e desenho da cidade, de modo a gerar uma reflexão sobre formas de melhorar a qualidade de vida da população e dos espaços públicos. A abordagem desse trabalho resulta em uma proposta de diretrizes gerais para melhoria da qualidade de vida da população urbana, nos seus aspectos sociais, econômicos e urbanísticos, considerando que qualquer interferência efetiva na cidade contemporânea deve considerar a influência dos aspectos econômicos e sociais para as intervenções urbanísticas, a fim de efetivar projetos de desenho que possam se estabelecer de maneira efetiva nas cidades, alterando a cultura vigente de depreciação do papel do arquiteto e da improvisação regente nos processos de planejamento de nossas cidades.

Just across the railway lines at Charni road, forming a backdrop to the Marine Drive, stands the Saifee Hospital in all its splendor. Across the city in the neighborhood of Mazgaon, nestled behind the St. Mary's school along the central railway line, and in an equal splendor, stands the Center of Excellence, Diamond Jubilee High School. Both buildings were built in the last five years. Both use a similar quantity of glass and cement plaster and establish their contemporaneity so. Both institutions were built by Shi'i Isma'ili communities, the hospital by the Bohras and the school by the Khojas. Both buildings represent a significant phase in the history of these mercantile communities in Bombay where their emergence as public philanthropists echoes the rapid increase in wealth and the creation of global diasporic networks in a liberal Indian economy. But while the Saifee hospital is cloaked in its massive pastel colored facade punctured by numerous arched windows and capped by ornamental domes, the Diamond Jubilee High School displays a playful juxtaposition of geometrical forms and volumes with dashes of color composed so as to expose structure and skin. The thesis explains how these two buildings, which have such different appearances, are comparable strategies for expressing Isma'ili communal identity. In Chapter two, I construct a detailed comparison of the two buildings with respect to their location in the city, aspects of siting, faqade, interior, spatial organization, program, client and architect teams.
(cont.) In Chapter three, I investigate and conclude that the two institutions mediate Isma'ili faith, citizenship and mercantilism in architecturally different but functionally comparable ways that respond to the complex social 'condition' in contemporary Bombay. This thesis thus studies the expression of communal identity through its patronage of public architecture. It claims that architecture is instrumental in the creation, sustenance and subversion of communal identity and is an effective social construction used to communicate within the public sphere. I argue that for post-partition Indian Muslims, to contend with their identity in a rising tide of Hindu nationalism in the country, requires mediation of faith, citizenship and in the case of the Isma'ilis, mercantilism. Isma'ili public philanthropy, I propose, is a mode for expressing this communal identity. I explain Isma' ili architectural expression as a product of a condition distinctive of contemporary Bombay, where the simultaneous marginalization of the two Isma'ili communities by the Hindus and the other Muslims, creates a space for them to perform within the public sphere.

Повний текст джерелаThis researchs subject of investigation is the Religious Education in the education of the Youth and Adults at the Ozias Correia School Unit, Parnaíba-PI. Its general goal is to investigate the contributions of Religious Education in the Education of Youth and Adults with citizen perspectives for the people who participate in this modality of education. The concepts of Sedentary, Citizen, Sustainable, Popular, Problematizing, Liberating, Dialogic Education, Education of Youth and Adults and Religious Education were presented. The theoretical resources providing a foundation for the research were: Paulo Freire, Edgar Morin, Carlos Brandão, Leonardo Boff, Antonio Moser, Pedrinho Guareschi, Arlindo Correa and Angela Holanda and others. The first part of the thesis consists of the historical contextualization of education and Religious Education with the delimitation being set by the MOBRAL proposal. The second part focuses on the concepts of Religious Education in harmony with EJA (Education of Youth and Adults), engaging the significance and foundations of education with citizen perspectives based on the thought of some theoreticians and theologians. The third joins all the parts based on the analysis of the data collected among the students of the School Unit researched. The data furnish elements which affirm the importance of Religious Education in the modality of EJA, and the need for specific training in the area for those who teach this curricular component. In this way, the research presents a counterpoint for the reflection on Religious Education and Education of Youth and Adults based on an approach which dialogs and interacts with the school context aiming at a citizen formation in the educational journey of young adults.

Повний текст джерелаThis thesis studies the theatre and its transformations in the socio-political context of Tehran between 2009 and 2019 through the question of spatiality (Lussault, 2007). This period is characterized, on the one hand, by the blossoming of new performance spaces of various architectural, urban and institutional natures throughout the city and, on the other hand, by the appearance of new forms of appropriation of urban spaces for theatrical purposes by artists and spectators. To question these mutations, this study analyses the three case studies – representative of private theatre, off stage theatre and underground theatre - from a theoretical approach that combines social production of space and social construction of space (Low, 2017). In doing so, the present thesis demonstrates that beyond the aesthetic and dramaturgical dimensions, the evolution of the theatre scene in Tehran results from a more significant change in the urban spatiality of the theatre. This materializes, on the one hand, in the transformation of the spatial organization of the theatre within the urban context and, on the other hand, in the ways in which the social and political relations and dynamics of the city are spatialized in the theatre. As a result of this double process, and in the tense and changing socio-political conjunctures of Tehran in 2010s, the theatre space, hitherto an almost compartmentalized space excluded from the public sphere, is manifesting itself as a new public space. Not only it becomes the political field where different political and social forces meet (Balme,2014), it also turns into one of the principal elements in the power dynamics among them. Its production as an architectural and urban entity, its occupation, its appropriation and even its social, symbolic and discursive characteristics and boundaries are then the object of struggles, debates, negotiations and interventions - among the most tense and even virulent ones that the Iranian capital has experienced in the last decade - on the part of the three main forces :the authoritarian and ideological power in place, the economic and financial operators and the citizens, in this case artists and spectators. On the one hand, the dominant political, ideological and financial forces are establishing the privatization of theatre, which is conceptualized here as a spatial strategy. (De Certeau, 1990). They regulate theatre space, its production and use through multiple processes of political, ideological and economic exclusion, homogenization and domination. On the other hand, citizens deploy tactics (De Certeau) that is, new forms of appropriation of space within the breaches, inconsistencies and interstices of the dominant strategy. As a result, urban spaces produced, regulated and monitored for political, ideological or even capitalist purposes immediately become the fields for new forms of artists and spectators’ agencies. Sometimes these forms take the form of acts of resistance, struggle, contestation (the Underground theatre), sometimes of negotiation, compromise (the private theatres) or even circumvention and counter-experiences (the Off Stage theatre). However, whatever the form and consequences of these interactions, they open up breaches and fractures in the political, ideological and economic order that dominates the city and its space. They thus make possible the emergence and survival of forms of otherness in the public sphere and the public space.

This thesis studies in the East Asia contemporary cities according to Edward Soja’s Post-Modernist geographical theories. Searching for the modernized process and globalized meaning about three cities-Taipei, Shanghai and Hong Kong, I want to analysis the memory and experience but the data of number. Therefore, I read the female novelists text to control the changeable transformation of three cities. The local group memory offers us more imagination of three cities’ modernization and globalization. In Taipei, the different landscapes stock shadows together because of the political sight and cultural impact. In Shanghai, through the nostalgia narrative and daily living writing I think about the reasonable progress of globalization. In Hong Kong, during the migration and diaspora period I concern about how to deal with the new geography of marginality.
