Book Synopsis The Sustainable City in Africa Facing the Challenge of Liquid Sanitation by : Esoh Elamé
Download or read book The Sustainable City in Africa Facing the Challenge of Liquid Sanitation written by Esoh Elamé and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2023-04-19 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book questions the role of liquid sanitation in the development of cities in Africa. The absence of sewerage networks and treatment plants in African cities already submerged by rapid and anarchic urbanization is a major problem. To meet this challenge, it is urgent to rethink urban water governance and impose and enforce sustainable urban planning standards. In other words, sanitation issues must now be placed at the heart of urban planning.
Book Synopsis La ville c'est Moi by : Rosane Araujo
Download or read book La ville c'est Moi written by Rosane Araujo and published by Editions L'Harmattan. This book was released on 2014-03-01 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proposant une nouvelle façon de comprendre la relation entre la ville et l'identité personnelle, cet ouvrage, fruit d'une recherche approfondie sur les notions de ville et de personne à travers le temps et les disciplines, prend acte de la mutation qualitative générale dont nous sommes les contemporains. Il montre comment ce changement a partie liée avec la décentralisation et la fragmentation de l'identité personnelle dans un monde globalisé et, de la sorte, affronte le défi de repenser l'urbanisme en fonction tant des risques et incertitudes que des possibilités des villes d'aujourd'hui.
Book Synopsis Pari de la Franchise by : Stéphane Dion
Download or read book Pari de la Franchise written by Stéphane Dion and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1999-10-29 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le Canada n'avait pas connu de politicien de la trempe de Stéphane Dion depuis Pierre Trudeau. Ses réponses cinglantes aux déclarations du Premier ministre Lucien Bouchard sur la séparation ont rendu les souverainistes furieux. Et ses discours ont étonné les commentateurs, toutes tendances politiques confondues. Pour la première fois depuis longtemps, un politicien a eu l'audace de prendre à partie l'opposition. Comme Trudeau, Dion est un brillant universitaire, recruté par le Parti libéral du Canada en raison de ses profondes convictions et de son désir d'imprimer un nouveau dynamisme au fédéralisme canadien. Nommé ministre des Affaires intergouvernementales et élu au Parlement, il s'est retrouvé au coeur même des débats portant sur les grands enjeux en matière des relations fédérales-provinciales. Mais ce sont ses incursions au Québec qui ont attiré l'attention des médias. Ses lettres au Premier ministre Bouchard et au vice-premier ministre Bernard Landry ont défini pour la première fois le coût de la séparation. Il a irrité les séparatistes en déclarant que si le Canada était divisible, le Québec l'était aussi. Il a aussi irrité les anglophones en présentant la Loi 101, la loi du Québec qui porte sur la langue, comme une grande loi canadienne. Stéphane Dion parle avec clarté et passion de la complexité, de la beauté et des contradictions du Canada. Le pari de la franchise définit sa pensée en matière de réconciliation nationale.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La forme urbaine, socle des pratiques sociales, autorise ou interdit. L'intérêt général, le vécu du citoyen, son appropriation spatiale des lieux publics, se construisent là.

Une réflexion systématique et sans complaisance sur une métamorphose qui a lieu maintenant, sous nos yeux. Un livre susceptible d’aider un large public à comprendre et formuler ses inquiétudes.
Book Synopsis The Handbook of Contemporary Cambodia by : Katherine Brickell
Download or read book The Handbook of Contemporary Cambodia written by Katherine Brickell and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offering a comprehensive overview of the current situation in the country, The Handbook of Contemporary Cambodia provides a broad coverage of social, cultural, political and economic development within both rural and urban contexts during the last decade. A detailed introduction places Cambodia within its global and regional frame, and the handbook is then divided into five thematic sections: Political and Economic Tensions Rural Developments Urban Conflicts Social Processes Cultural Currents The first section looks at the major political implications and tensions that have occurred in Cambodia, as well as the changing parameters of its economic profile. The handbook then highlights the major developments that are unfolding within the rural sphere, before moving on to consider how cities in Cambodia, and particularly Phnom Penh, have become primary sites of change. The fourth section covers the major processes that have shaped social understandings of the country, and how Cambodians have come to understand themselves in relation to each other and the outside world. Section five analyses the cultural dimensions of Cambodia’s current experience, and how identity comes into contact with and responds to other cultural themes. Bringing together a team of leading scholars on Cambodia, the handbook presents an understanding of how sociocultural and political economic processes in the country have evolved. It is a cutting edge and interdisciplinary resource for scholars and students of Southeast Asian Studies, as well as policymakers, sociologists and political scientists with an interest in contemporary Cambodia.
Book Synopsis European Borderlands by : Elisabeth Boesen
Download or read book European Borderlands written by Elisabeth Boesen and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-11-10 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The expectations of European planners for the gradual disappearance of national borders, and the corresponding prognoses of social scientists, have turned out to be over-optimistic. Borders have not disappeared – not even in a unified and predominantly peaceful Europe – but rather they have changed, become more varied and, in a certain sense, mobile, taking on an important role in the everyday lives of more people than ever before. Furthermore, it is now widely accepted that borders do not just hinder communication and the formation of relationships, but also channel and prefigure them in a positive way. Presenting a number of studies of everyday life in European borderlands, this book addresses the multifarious and complex ways in which borders function as both barriers and bridges. Focusing on ‘established’ Western European borderlands – with the exception of three contrasting cases – the book attempts a turn from conflict to harmony in the study of borderlands and thus examines the more mundane manifestations of border life and the complex, often unconscious motives of everyday cross-border practices. The collection of chapters demonstrates that even in the case of ‘open’ political borders, the border remains an enduring factor that is not adequately described as either a problematic barrier or a desirable bridge. The studies look at bordering processes, not only approaching them from different disciplinary angles – sociology, anthropology, geography, history, political science and literary studies – but also choosing different scales and making comparisons that range from different borders of one country to the reactions and attitudes of different individuals in a single borderland village.

Download or read book The World Ahead written by Federico Mayor and published by Unesco. This book was released on 2001 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book looks at the major challenges of the future. Packed with the latest information and scientific understanding, it traverses a rich tapestry of crucial issues, threats and choices confronting humanity and proposes a new start basd on four broad contracts: social, natural, cultural and ethical. To problems with global dimensions correspond global solutions. The culture of violence must become a culture of peace. The choice is stark: either a 21st century with a human face or the grimacing mask of a 'Brave New World'.
Book Synopsis Children of the Soil by : Tasha Rijke-Epstein
Download or read book Children of the Soil written by Tasha Rijke-Epstein and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2023-09-08 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Children of the Soil, Tasha Rijke-Epstein offers an urban history of the port city of Mahajanga, Madagascar, before, during, and after colonization. Drawing on archival and ethnographic evidence, she weaves together the lives and afterlives of built spaces to show how city residents negotiated imperial encroachment, colonial rule, and global racial capitalism over two centuries. From Mahajanga’s hilltop palace to the alluvial depths of its cesspools, the city’s spaces were domains for ideological debates between rulers and subjects, French colonizers and indigenous Malagasy peoples, and Comorian migrants and Indian traders. In these spaces, Mahajanga’s residents expressed competing moral theories about power over people and the land. The built world was also where varying populations reckoned with human, ancestral, and ecological pasts and laid present and future claims to urban belonging. Migrants from nearby Comoros harnessed built forms as anticipatory devices through which they sought to build their presence into the landscape and transform themselves from outsiders into "children of the soil" (zanatany). In tracing the centrality of Mahajanga’s architecture to everyday life, Rijke-Epstein offers new ways to understand the relationships between the material world, the more-than-human realm, and the making of urban life.

Download or read book Urbanizing the Alps written by Fiona Pia and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2019-01-14 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For plenty years, many popular mountain resorts have seen largely uncontrolled development consisting of the multiplication of archetypal chalet-style houses. This is usually accompanied by roadbuilding for private cars. In order to protect these tourist destinations and their natural environs from further uncontrolled development, the author investigates different settlement structures such as Andermatt, Avoriaz, Verbier, Zermatt,and Whistler-Blackcomb. On the basis of detailed graphical analyses, she develops groundbreaking strategies for urban densification and suitable mobility management, which can also be transferred to other tourist areas.
