Book Synopsis Our Selfish Tax Laws by : Anthony C. Infanti
Download or read book Our Selfish Tax Laws written by Anthony C. Infanti and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why tax law is not just a pocketbook issue but a reflection of what and whom we, as a society, value. Most of us think of tax as a pocketbook issue: how much we owe, how much we'll get back, how much we can deduct. In Our Selfish Tax Laws, Anthony Infanti takes a broader view, considering not just how taxes affect us individually but how the tax system reflects our culture and society. He finds that American tax laws validate and benefit those who already possess power and privilege while starkly reflecting the lines of difference and discrimination in American society based on race, ethnicity, socioeconomic class, gender, sexual orientation and gender identity, immigration status, and disability. Infanti argues that instead of focusing our tax reform discussions on which loopholes to close or which deductions to allow, we should consider how to make our tax system reflect American ideals of inclusivity rather than institutionalizing exclusion. After describing the theoretical and intellectual underpinnings of his argument, Infanti offers two comparative case studies, examining the treatment of housing tax expenditures and the unit of taxation in the United States, Canada, France, and Spain to show how tax law reflects its social and cultural context. Then, drawing on his own work and that of other critical tax scholars, Infanti explains how the discourse surrounding tax reform masks the many ways that the American tax system rewards and reifies privilege. To counter this, Infanti urges us to work together to create a society with a tax system that respects and values all Americans.
Book Synopsis Divergence in European Welfare and Housing Systems by : J. S. C. M. Hoekstra
Download or read book Divergence in European Welfare and Housing Systems written by J. S. C. M. Hoekstra and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the relationship between the characteristics of the welfare state and the characteristics of the housing system (housing policies, housing outcomes and housing market developments) in different European countries. It consists of a theoretical framework, six published articles and a concluding chapter. All six articles use the welfare state regime theory and typology of Esping-Andersen, the housing system typology of Kemeny or both, or at least some aspects of these, as an explanatory framework. The results of the investigations indicate that there are considerable differences between the various European housing systems. As far as this is concerned, especially the Southern European countries occupy a rather distinct position. For this reason, two articles in the study specifically focus on the Southern European housing system of Spain. The book is relevant for both academics and policy-makers interested in international housing & housing policy developments.
Download or read book Urbanismo Regenerativo written by Landlab and published by Actar D, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-01-23 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are living in a critical moment, a reality marked by environmental and socio-economic limits that requires innovative and realistic forms of action and planning. This is what regenerative urbanism proposes, a new approach based on utopian pragmatism that seeks to restore balance to the urban territory by designing systems that allow it to adapt and transform. It is a methodology that defines models that do not consume available resources, but rather generate new ones that ensure compatibility between economic and social prosperity and nature. Santander, Hábitat Futuro (Santander, Future Habitat) is the city model created from this methodology, a proposal for the transformation of this city for the year 2055. It is an open model based on innovation and citizen participation that prepares and adapts the territory for the different scenarios to come. Santander, Habitat Futuro is a guide that directs the commitment of the different social, economic and political agents towards a common goal: to achieve a circular, sustainable, resilient, vertebrate, prosperous, vital and inclusive city. A model that, due to its innovative nature, can serve as an example to other intermediate cities around the world.

This book was released on 2010-12-15 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Es bien sabido que la arquitectura es un tipo muy especifico de arte, de ciencia o de acto etico,porque los edificios, las ciudades y los territorios son artefactos fisicos y sociales, no representaciones «virtuales», como sucede en el cine, en la literatura, etc. Mijail Bajtin era consciente de esta especificidad cuando afirmaba que la arquitectura, «toda la arquitectura», solamente tiene «sujetos esteticos potenciales», no «heroes esteticos reales».1 Sin embargo, estas cualidades especificas de la arquitectura no significan que «el proyecto arquitectonico virtual», es decir, un proyecto aun no construido, aun no usado, sea real. - See more at: http://ebooks.upc.edu/product/arquitectura-y-virtualidad-architecture-virtuality#sthash.qKiK1LUK.dpuf
Book Synopsis Construction and Building Research by : Carmen Llinares-Millán
Download or read book Construction and Building Research written by Carmen Llinares-Millán and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-01-31 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many areas of knowledge converge in the building industry and therefore research in this field necessarily involves an interdisciplinary approach. Effective research requires strong relation between a broad variety of scientific and technological domains and more conventional construction or craft processes, while also considering advanced management processes, where all the main actors permanently interact. This publication takes an interdisciplinary approach grouping various studies on the building industry chosen from among the works presented for the 2nd International Conference on Construction and Building Research. The papers examine aspects of materials and building systems; construction technology; energy and sustainability; construction management; heritage, refurbishment and conservation. The information contained within these pages may be of interest to researchers and practitioners in construction and building activities from the academic sphere, as well as public and private sectors.
Book Synopsis Social Housing in Europe by : Kathleen Scanlon
Download or read book Social Housing in Europe written by Kathleen Scanlon and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-09-29 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All countries aim to improve housing conditions for their citizens but many have been forced by the financial crisis to reduce government expenditure. Social housing is at the crux of this tension. Policy-makers, practitioners and academics want to know how other systems work and are looking for something written in clear English, where there is a depth of understanding of the literature in other languages and direct contributions from country experts across the continent. Social Housing in Europe combines a comparative overview of European social housing written by scholars with in-depth chapters written by international housing experts. The countries covered include Austria, Denmark, England, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, The Netherlands and Sweden, with a further chapter devoted to CEE countries other than Hungary. The book provides an up-to-date international comparison of social housing policy and practice. It offers an analysis of how the social housing system currently works in each country, supported by relevant statistics. It identifies European trends in the sector, and opportunities for innovation and improvement. These country-specific chapters are accompanied by topical thematic chapters dealing with subjects such as the role of social housing in urban regeneration, the privatisation of social housing, financing models, and the impact of European Union state aid regulations on the definitions and financing of social housing.
Download or read book The Spaniards written by John Hooper and published by Penguin Group. This book was released on 1987 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since Franco's death Spain has become a land of extraordinary paradoxes - a nation where traditional values vie with increased sexual freedom, where the meseta and sierras are becoming deserted while the workers' suburbs are packed with a new, streetwise generation. John Hooper's authoritative study of this new Spain focuses on issues affecting the ordinary Spaniard - housing, education, religion, public and private morality. He illuminates the quirks of a society of police trade unions and wife-swapping bars, a nation in which the king pays tax yet almost tow thirds of the unemployed do not qualify for welfare payments.

Each chapter draws out lessons that can be learned for the future from each country’s past handling of the problem.

Book Synopsis Las fronteras de la ciudadanía en España y en la Unión Europea by : Marco Aparicio
Download or read book Las fronteras de la ciudadanía en España y en la Unión Europea written by Marco Aparicio and published by Documenta Universitaria. This book was released on 2006 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El presente volumen recoge, actualizadas, una parte importante de las comunicaciones presentadas en el II y III Encuentro de jóvenes investigadores en derecho de inmigración y asilo celebrados en Barcelona y Girona, respectivamente. La diversidad de aportaciones a los Encuentros tiene una entidad y coherencia propias que reflejan el amplio espectro de investigaciones en marcha, y que la distinguen de otras obras de carácter más sistemático sobre este ámbito del Derecho. Con esta perspectiva, el primer apartado recoge, bajo el título de “Cuestiones de extranjería en el derecho comunitario y en el derecho interno”, diversas aportaciones de ámbito transversal y genérico, que dan paso a un análisis individualizado de derechos concretos y de sus limitaciones en un segundo apartado dedicado a la normativa española, englobado bajo el título de “Acerca de los derechos y libertades de las personas extranjeras”; el tercer apartado del volumen recoge las comunicaciones directamente relacionadas con el derecho de asilo, que por su propia entidad merecen un tratamiento específico. Como corolario se recogen los informes de la situación de la inmigración y el asilo en Irlanda, Rumanía y Alemania en los dos últimos años. \n\n

This book is about making connections that may lead towards a new professionalism, since the past decades have given rise mainly to new kinds of specialists in the areas of programming, evaluation, and participation.
