Concepts like "Urban Loopholes", "Preservation via inhabitation", and "Gentrification with Chinese characteristics" characterize the specific mechanisms for urban development in Shanghai. Urban Loopholes invites the reader to rethink the necessity of urban resilience in the face of globalization’s impact for change.

Book Synopsis The Making of Urban Japan by : André Sorensen
Download or read book The Making of Urban Japan written by André Sorensen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-08-19 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the twentieth century, Japan was transformed from a poor, primarily rural country into one of the world's largest industrial powers and most highly urbanised countries. Interestingly, while Japanese governments and planners borrowed carefully from the planning ideas and methods of many other countries, Japanese urban planning, urban governance and cities developed very differently from those of other developed countries. Japan's distinctive patterns of urbanisation are partly a product of the highly developed urban system, urban traditions and material culture of the pre-modern period, which remained influential until well after the Pacific War. A second key influence has been the dominance of central government in urban affairs, and its consistent prioritisation of economic growth over the public welfare or urban quality of life. André Sorensen examines Japan's urban trajectory from the mid-nineteenth century to the present, paying particular attention to the weak development of Japanese civil society, local governments, and land development and planning regulations.

Download or read book Porous City written by Sophie Wolfrum and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some time ago, Walter Benjamin and Asja Lacis used the term "porosity" with reference to Naples’ urban characteristics – spaces merging into each other and providing the backdrop for the unforeseen – improvisation as a way of life. Today, the term "porosity" in this context is increasingly used conceptually. Well-known authors from the worlds of architecture, town planning, and landscape design embark on a search for new concepts for a life-enhancing, user-friendly city – with reference to this enigmatic term. The term refers to the overlaying and interweaving of spaces and structures, to urban textures and their architectural properties and qualities – to cities with radically mixed urban functions.
Book Synopsis Architectures of Colonialism by : Vera Egbers
Download or read book Architectures of Colonialism written by Vera Egbers and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2024-06-04 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fragen des kulturellen Erbes und unseres Umgangs damit sind nicht neutral. Ereignisse wie die Black Lives Matter-Bewegung und der Sturz von Denkmälern und Statuen zeigen, wie stark sich die koloniale Vergangenheit in unsere gebaute Umgebung eingeschrieben hat; zugleich prägt der Kolonialismus weiterhin kulturelles Gedächtnis und Geschichtsschreibung. Das fordert all jene, die sich mit der Geschichte von Architektur beschäftigen, dazu heraus, auch die eigene Positionalität zu reflektieren. Wessen Erbe sind die kolonialen Orte? Welche womöglich verdrängten Erinnerungen sind mit ihnen verknüpft? Wie lassen sich Archive und materielle Evidenz neu bewerten, um die Geschichten marginalisierter Personen und Gruppen sichtbar zu machen? Angesichts des globalen Rufs nach Entkolonialisierung bringt dieser Sammelband Archäologie, Architekturgeschichte und Heritage Studies zusammen, um historische Methoden zu erkunden und die Verflechtung unterschiedlicher Narrative an architektonischen Orten offenzulegen. Ein Beitrag zur aktuellen Debatte um Entkolonialisierung und Erinnerungskultur Eine interdisziplinäre Sicht auf Architektur und kulturelles Erbe Internationale Beiträger: innen
