Book Synopsis Beyond the Networked City by : Olivier Coutard
Download or read book Beyond the Networked City written by Olivier Coutard and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cities around the world are undergoing profound changes. In this global era, we live in a world of rising knowledge economies, digital technologies, and awareness of environmental issues. The so-called "modern infrastructural ideal" of spatially and socially ubiquitous centrally-governed infrastructures providing exclusive, homogeneous services over extensive areas, has been the standard of reference for the provision of basic essential services, such as water and energy supply. This book argues that, after decades of undisputed domination, this ideal is being increasingly questioned and that the network ideology that supports it may be waning. In order to begin exploring the highly diverse, fluid and unstable landscapes emerging beyond the networked city, this book identifies dynamics through which a ‘break’ with previous configurations has been operated, and new brittle zones of socio-technical controversy through which urban infrastructure (and its wider meaning) are being negotiated and fought over. It uncovers, across a diverse set of urban contexts, new ways in which processes of urbanization and infrastructure production are being combined with crucial sociopolitical implications: through shifting political economies of infrastructure which rework resource distribution and value creation; through new infrastructural spaces and territorialities which rebundle socio-technical systems for particular interests and claims; and through changing offsets between individual and collective appropriation, experience and mobilization of infrastructure. With contributions from leading authorities in the field and drawing on theoretical advances and original empirical material, this book is a major contribution to an ongoing infrastructural turn in urban studies, and will be of interest to all those concerned by the diverse forms and contested outcomes of contemporary urban change across North and South.

Book Synopsis Modernization and Urban Water Governance by : Thomas Bolognesi
Download or read book Modernization and Urban Water Governance written by Thomas Bolognesi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-24 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the impact of modernization on the organization and sustainability of Urban Water Systems in Europe (UWSEs). Bolognesi explains that the modernization of UWSEs was a regulatory shock that began in the 1990s and was put into action with the EU Water Framework Directive in the year 2000. This process sought to reorganize water governance in order to achieve certain sustainability goals, but it fell short of expectations. Modernization and Urban Water Governance provides an update on the organization and sustainability of UWSEs, while drawing from a comparative analysis of German, French, and English water models and an institutionalist explanation of the current situation. With a focus on transaction costs, property rights allocation and institutional environments, this book argues that the modernization of UWSEs tends to depoliticize these systems and make them more resilient but also limits their potential for sustainable management. This book will be relevant to those wishing to understand the real impacts of water reform in Europe according to national contingencies.

Book Synopsis Gestion durable de l'eau urbaine by : Bernard Barraqué

Book excerpt: Comment faire face à l'enjeu de la gestion durable de l'eau dans les grandes métropoles, que ce soit dans les pays développés ou émergents ? Comment en concilier les quatre dimensions économique, technico-environnementale, sociale et politique, qui ne sont pas forcément compatibles ? À l'accès aux services d'eau et d'assainissement, enjeu sanitaire et social « classique », s'ajoute celui de l'interaction avec la ressource en eau. Les auteurs présentent ici les dimensions institutionnelles, historiques, économiques et sociales de ces enjeux, de façon comparée terme à terme entre la France et un grand pays émergent, le Brésil. D'abord est analysé le sens de l'emploi des notions de « service public », d'« intérêt général » et/ou d'« intérêts publics ou locaux » dans l'histoire contemporaine des deux pays. Est abordée ensuite la nécessaire reconstruction du lien entre les services publics des grandes villes et la ressource. Puis sont traités les thèmes classiques de la modernisation des services : les nouvelles échelles territoriales de gestion des services publics ; la régulation des services sous diverses formes dont la notion de contrôle social au Brésil ; les modes de financement tarifaires et notamment les tarifs sociaux. Enfin, sont explicitées les difficultés du développement de la gestion de la ressource par des comités de bassin dans les deux pays, l'expérience française ayant inspiré la brésilienne. Cet ouvrage rend compte de plusieurs années de recherches et de discussions entre des universités françaises et brésiliennes, conduites grâce à des financements de la coopération France-Brésil (Capes-Cofecub), et nationaux (ANR). Outre les spécialistes en urbanisme et en aménagement, ce livre espère toucher plus largement les sciences sociales ; et tous les acteurs de l'eau dans la coopération internationale, sans oublier les citoyens soucieux de se saisir des débats sur l'eau, dans leur complexité et des enjeux de la démocratisation de sa gestion.
Book Synopsis A Sustainable Future for the Mediterranean by : Guillaume Benoit
Download or read book A Sustainable Future for the Mediterranean written by Guillaume Benoit and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Here's a work arriving just at the right moment and contributingnew insights at precisely the time when public opinion remains sceptical of the not very promising future we are preparing for our children, when governments balk at explaining to their electorates the vital but unpopular decisions that have to be taken and when civil society, with few ways and means, is finally becoming involved. This remarkable work will help all actors to understand the inter-linkages between economic activities and the environment in the Mediterranean Basin and take concerted, effective action to build a positive, sustainable future' Mohamed Ennabli, former Minister of the Environment and Land Use Panning, Tunisia 'The Blue Plan has carried out a remarkable assessment of the serious environmental probems and insufficiently targeted cooperation in the Mediterranean, and also of new financing systems to be implemented, which would increase the capacities of local authorities and economic and social partners' Georges Corm, former Minister of Finance, Lebanon The Mediterranean Basin and its surrounding countries is a microcosm of the environmental and sustainability challenges facing people across the world. Depending on the development path it takes in the future, the region can either become a positive model for the regional regulation of globalization, or, more onerously, it might reinforce global instability. This unique volume is the definitive, authoritative assessment of the environment and development of the Mediterranean Basin and its 22 countries and territories, spanning five decades from 30 years in the past to 20 years into the future. Produced by the Blue Plan within the framework of UNEP/Mediterranean Action Plan and backed by the EU and national governments, it brings together the work of more than 100 researchers from dozens of national, regional and local governments and research groups into the only comprehensive insight into sustainable development issues in the region. Core coverage includes water, energy, transport, cities, rural and coastal areas, as well as related issues such as climate change, population growth, geopolitical changes, unemployment and poverty, pollution, economic and environmental policies, regional cooperation and the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership. Information is clearly presented through hundreds of full-colour maps, graphs, tables and a wealth of case studies. This is a must-have reference for all levels of government, NGOs and libraries, as well as practitioners, academics and businesses involved in economics, natural resource management, land and maritime transport, water, energy, infrastructure, urban and rural development, agriculture, fishing and aquaculture, tourism and coastal management. Countries and territories covered: Spain, France, Italy, Monaco, Malta, Cyprus, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia and Montenegro, Albania, Greece, Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Palestinian Territories, Israel, Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Algeria and Morocco. Preface by Lucien Chabason, Chairman of the Blue Plan.

Book Synopsis Urban Infrastructure by : Joseph Heathcott
Download or read book Urban Infrastructure written by Joseph Heathcott and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2022-10-11 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban Infrastructures creates space for an encounter between historians, humanists, and social scientists who seek new methodological approaches to the history of urban infrastructure. It draws on recent work across history, anthropology, science and technology studies, geography, resilience/sustainability, and other disciplines to explore the social effects of infrastructure. The volume rejects narrow conceptions of infrastructure history as only the history of public works, and instead expands the definition to all business enterprises and public bodies that provide the goods and services essential for the day-to-day lives of most people. Essays examine traditional artifacts such as roads, highways, and waterworks, as well as nontraditional topics like regimes of heating and cooling, the processing and distribution of food, and even the metaphysics of electromagnetic infrastructure. Contributors reveal both the material grounding of urban social relations and the social life of material infrastructure. In the end, they show that infrastructure profoundly reshapes urban life even as residents fight to reshape infrastructure to their own ends.
Book Synopsis La gestion durable de l'eau by : Louise Schriver-Mazzuoli
Download or read book La gestion durable de l'eau written by Louise Schriver-Mazzuoli and published by Dunod. This book was released on 2012-04-18 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’eau douce, dont la qualité et la quantité sont gravement menacées en particulier par les activités humaines, risque de manquer dans quelques années et d’entraîner une grave crise mondiale. Un des enjeux majeurs du XXIe siècle est ainsi de protéger et de partager cette ressource indispensable tout en fournissant une eau salubre à tous les êtres vivants. Une gestion intégrée des ressources en eau à l’échelle des bassins fluviaux, mise en œuvre en Europe et en France, doit être généralisée. Cet ouvrage rassemble tous les aspects techniques, sociaux, économiques, environnementaux et institutionnels développés en France dans le domaine de l’eau. Il constitue une source de notions indispensables pour tous ceux qui ont pris conscience que la protection et la gestion de l’eau sont des enjeux incontournables. Il s’adresse aux professionnels de l’eau (collectivités locales ou territoriales, institutions sanitaires et sociales, bureaux d’études) ainsi qu’aux étudiants en environnement. Points forts : - Présentation complète et pédagogique de l’ensemble des aspects techniques, sanitaires et réglementaires liés à l’eau. - L’ouvrage propose de nombreuses données et références.
Book Synopsis Urban Planning Against Poverty by : Jean-Claude Bolay
Download or read book Urban Planning Against Poverty written by Jean-Claude Bolay and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-12 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book revisits the theoretical foundations of urban planning and the application of these concepts and methods in the context of Southern countries by examining several case studies from different regions of the world. For instance, the case of Koudougou, a medium-sized city in one of the poorest countries in the world, Burkina Faso, with a population of 115.000 inhabitants, allows us to understand concretely which and how these deficiencies are translated in an African urban context. In contrast, the case of Nueve de Julio, intermediate city of 50.000 dwellers in the pampa Argentina, addresses the new forms of spatial fragmentation and social exclusion linked with agro export and crisis of the international markets. Case studies are also included for cities in Asia and Latin America. Differences and similarities between cases allow us to foresee alternative models of urban planning better adapted to tackle poverty and find efficient ways for more inclusive cities in developing and emerging countries, interacting several dimensions linked with high rates of urbanization: territorial fragmentation; environmental contamination; social disparities and exclusion, informal economy and habitat, urban governance and democracy.
