Download or read book R gions m tropolitaines de recensement et agglom rations de recensement subdivis es en secteurs de recensement pour le Recensement de 2001 written by Peter E. Murphy and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dans le cadre du Recensement de 2001, on a défini 27 régions métropolitaines de recensement (RMR), y compris deux nouvelles, Kingston, Ontario et Abbotsford (Colombie-Britannique) qui étaient auparavant des agglomérations de recensement et 19 agglomérations de recensement (AR) subdivisées en des secteurs de recensement, y compris trois nouvelles, Drummondville et Granby, au Québec, et Medicine Hat, en Alberta . Le présent document de travail comprend trois cartes pour chacune des RMR et AR. La première carte montre les limites de la RMR ou de l'AR et des limites des subdivisions de recensement (SDR) qui la compose en 1996; la deuxième, la transition de 1996 à 2001 (les changements de limites étant mis en évidence), et la troisième, la RMR ou AR définie pour le Recensement de 2001 et les limites des SDR qui la compose en 2001. Les tableaux qui les accompagnent comportent des limites des subdivisions de recensement qui les composent ainsi que des critères auxquels elles doivent répondre pour être incluses dans une une RMR ou AR. Le présent document décrit divers facteurs qui peuvent donner lieu à des changements des limites des RMR et AR. Pour le Recensement de 2001, la restructuration des municipalités est le facteur qui a eu le plus de répercussions sur les limites de certaines RMR et AR. Le document décrit et compare en outre brièvement les critères de délimitation des régions métropolitaines aux États-Unis et ceux des régions métropolitaines au Canada. On indique quelles répercussions aurait l'utilisation des critères des régions métropolianes américaines sur le programme des RMR au Canada.
Download or read book Chinatowns around the World written by Bernard P. Wong and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-03-21 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The phenomenon of “Chinatown” has been of great interest to the general public as well as scholars. Movies and story books have made Chinatown to be exotic, mysterious, gangster filled, and sometimes, a gilded ghetto, an ethnopolis, a cultural diaspora as well as a model community. The authors of Chinatowns around the World seek to expose the social reality of Chinatowns with empirical data. The authors also examine the changing nature and functions of Chinatowns around the world while scrutinizing how factors emanating from larger societies and other external factors have shaped Chinatown development and transformation. The activities of the recent Chinese transnational migrants are also critically appraised.

Download or read book Regions Land Consumption and Sustainable Growth written by O. A. L. C. Atzema and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an in-depth investigation of the role of the private and public sectors in land markets and regional economics, and explores the reasons behind government intervention in the interests of sustainable growth. The authors explore the subject of regional development and changing land use in a variety of different countries. They examine broad themes such as urban structure, infrastructure and eco-structure, and look in detail at issues including housing, transport and technology clustering. They also demonstrate that for a proper understanding of long-term changes, the broader institutional settings and policy regimes are of critical importance, as it is within this framework that private and public actors interact. It is therefore vital to search for institutional arrangements where conflicts of interest can be dealt with in a constructive way, and where ecological values are taken into consideration. The contributions in this book highlight these difficulties and offer practical proposals to improve current practices. Regional scientists, geographers and development policymakers will welcome this rigorous exploration of the roles of the private and public sectors in the context of economic development.

Download or read book Belly Dance Around the World written by Caitlin E. McDonald and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-07-11 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these essays, dancers and scholars from around the world carefully consider the transformation of an improvised folk form from North Africa and the Middle East into a popular global dance practice. They explore the differences between the solo improvisational forms of North Africa and the Middle East, often referred to as raqs sharki, which are part of family celebrations, and the numerous globalized versions of this dance form, belly dance, derived from the movement vocabulary of North Africa and the Middle East but with a variety of performance styles distinct from its site of origin. Local versions of belly dance have grown and changed along with the role that dance plays in the community. The global evolution of belly dance is an inspiring example of the interplay of imagination, the internet and the social forces of local communities. All royalties are being donated to Women for Women International, an organization dedicated to supporting women survivors of war through economic, health, and social education programs. The contributors are proud to provide continuing sponsorship to such a worthwhile and necessary cause.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even though the Portuguese are relatively new to Canada, they have made major contributions to the cultural mosaic of the country. Containing many new essays, this second edition of The Portuguese in Canada updates the work that filled a gap in the scholarly literature of multiculturalism in Canada. The contributors come from a variety of disciplines - anthropology, geography, history, literature, linguistics, sociology, and urban planning - and are from Portugal, Canada and the United States. Essays examine the history of the Portuguese diaspora, the Portuguese presence in Newfoundland and its fisheries, language and identity, urban experiences (especially in Montreal and Toronto), and history and literature. This second edition of The Portuguese in Canada conveys the multi-faceted contributions the Portuguese have made to Canada and considers possible future growth and development of Portuguese-Canadian culture and heritage.
Download or read book Globalization Planning and Local Economic Development written by Andrew Beer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-08-21 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook looks at economic development at the local, community or regional scale. It provides students with a comprehensive introduction to contemporary thinking about locally-based economic development, how growth can be planned and how that development can be realized. Globalization, Planning and Local Economic Development: • Provides students with a thorough understanding of current debates around local and regional development and how that body of work can assist them in helping communities grow; • Equips students with a ‘toolkit’ of strategies that enable them to both plan for development and deliver that development through their professional lives; • Offers a roadmap for economic development that helps students make sense of place-based development by providing a ‘meta narrative’ of how regions grow and how those processes can be enhanced. This integrating perspective will be organized around the concept of competitiveness and how that concept can be understood and operationalized in various ways; • Introduces students to a range of techniques essential to success in economic development planning. In addition to a wealth of case studies and pedagogical features in the book, this text is also complemented by online resources. In offering a full toolkit of economic development knowledge, techniques and strategies, this text will thoroughly prepare students for a career in urban planning, transport planning, human geography, applied economic analysis, geographic information systems, or work as an economic development practitioner.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With over 20 percent of the population foreign-born, and with more than 250 ethnic origins, Canada is one of the world's most multicultural societies. Canada's ethnic and religious diversity continues to grow alongside immigration. Yet how well is Canada's model of multiculturalism and citizenship working, and how well are Canadians, whatever their ethnic or religious origin, doing? Will Canada's relative success compared to other countries continue, or are there emerging fault lines in Canadian society?

Over 200 charts and tables are used to engage readers and substantiate the changing nature of Canadian diversity.
