Book Inventivit   habitante et ing  nierie territoriale

Download or read book Inventivit habitante et ing nierie territoriale written by Adrien Balocco and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce travail de doctorat analyse la question du traitement de l'inventivité habitante au sein d'un bureau d'étude. L'inventivité habitante se définit par les pratiques réalisées par des habitants et détournant des normes socio-spatiales. Elles sont des modifications incrémentales et fragmentées qui participent au processus d'habitabilité. Cette thèse a pour particularité de construire un dialogue entre le monde de l'action au sein d'un bureau d'étude en aménagement du territoire et les sciences territoriales. La problématique de la thèse fait d'ailleurs référence à cet enjeu. Elle questionne la manière dont l'ingénierie territoriale a la capacité d'améliorer l'habitabilité des territoires par l'inventivité habitante.L'auteur s'appuie sur un socle théorique pragmatique et interactionniste autour des questions de l'habiter et des contraintes spatiales. Il définit l'inventivité habitante à partir d'une critique des œuvres de Michel De Certeau, notamment L'invention du quotidien, de la notion de bricolage développée par Claude Lévi-Strauss ou encore la mètis des hellénistes Détienne et Vernant. Sur les terrains d'études du cabinet de conseil, l'auteur a recherché, observé et analysé les inventivités habitantes. La profusion des terrains d'études (Communauté de Communes de Miribel et du Plateau, Aurillac, le département du Gard, etc.) a permis d'observer une grande diversité de pratiques inventives. Après une analyse quantitative, l'auteur a proposé une inventivité habitante type : des habitants se constituent en groupe(s) afin de combler un manque à l'échelle de la rue, où ni internet ni l'action publique n'ont un rôle. Ces actions s'inscrivent dans le cadre de l'économie collaborative, durant un an ou une demi-journée. Cette inventivité détourne les normes socio-spatiales en vigueur sur le territoire.A partir d'une analyse fine de l'inventivité habitante, l'auteur a travaillé sur les relations existantes avec l'habitabilité et l'ingénierie territoriale. Il affirme que l'inventivité habitante améliore l'habitabilité. Par ce postulat, il a mis en avant le processus d'émancipation comme une condition de l'habitabilité. Toute une série d'actions publiques locales ont été analysées afin d'identifier les possibilités de l'ingénierie territoriale. Enfin, l'auteur invite au débat dans un dernier chapitre, où il propose des méthodes pour une ingénierie territoriale de l'habitabilité

Book Population Aging and the Generational Economy

Download or read book Population Aging and the Generational Economy written by Ronald Demos Lee and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 617 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'While there already exists a crowded body of publications addressing the effect of an aging population on the economy, this monograph is most outstanding in presenting a global, in-depth analysis of the implications thereby generated for 23 developed and developing countries. . . Scholars, researchers, and practitioners everywhere will benefit immensely from this comprehensive work.' – H.I. Liebling, Choice 'Ron Lee and Andrew Mason's Population Aging and the Generational Economy is a demographic and economic tour-de-force. Their collaborative, intercontinental. . . study of aging, consumption, labor supply, saving, and private and public transfers is the place to go to understand global aging and its myriad and significant economic challenges and opportunities.' – Laurence Kotlikoff, Boston University, US 'The culmination of. . . work by Lee, Mason, and their collaborators from around the world to extend Samuelson's framework to accommodate realistic demography, empirical measurement of age-specific earnings, consumption, tax payments, and benefit receipts, the studies. . . demonstrate the power of this integrated economic-demographic framework to advance our understanding of critical public policy challenges faced by countries at different stages of demographic transition and population aging.' – Robert Willis, University of Michigan, US 'Lee and Mason have done scholars and practitioners a magnificent service by undertaking this comprehensive, compelling, and supremely innovative examination of the economic consequences of changes in population age structure. The book is a bona fide crystal ball. It will be a MUST READ for the next decade!' – David Bloom, Harvard School of Public Health, US 'Population Aging and the Generational Economy provides an encompassing account of what we know about population aging and the impact that this process will have on our economies. It does not confine itself to the advanced industrial countries, where aging has already been largely studied, but adopts a truly global perspective. I am sure it will become a key reference for researchers, students and those involved in policy-making in areas that are affected by population aging.' – Giuliano Bonoli, Swiss Graduate School of Public Administration (IDHEAP), Switzerland Over coming decades, changes in population age structure will have profound implications for the macroeconomy, influencing economic growth, generational equity, human capital, saving and investment, and the sustainability of public and private transfer systems. How the future unfolds will depend on key actors in the generational economy: governments, families, financial institutions, and others. This path-breaking book provides a comprehensive analysis of the macroeconomic effects of changes in population age structure across the globe. The result of a substantial seven-year research project involving over 50 economists and demographers from Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, and the United States, the book draws on a new and comprehensive conceptual framework – National Transfer Accounts – to quantify the economic lifecycle and economic flows across generations. It presents comprehensive estimates of both public and private economic flows between generations, and emphasizes the global nature of changes in population age structure that are affecting rich and poor countries alike. This unique and informative book will prove an invaluable reference tool for a wide-ranging audience encompassing students, researchers, and academics in fields such as demography, aging, public finance, economic development, macroeconomics, gerontology, and national income accounting; for policy-makers and advisers focusing on areas of the public sector such as education, health, pensions, other social security programs, tax policy, and public debt; and for policy analysts at international agencies such as the World Bank, the IMF, and the UN.

Download or read book A Philosopher s Economist written by Margaret Schabas and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2020-07-15 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reconsiders the centrality and legacy of Hume’s economic thought and serves as an important springboard for reflections on the philosophical underpinnings of economics. Although David Hume’s contributions to philosophy are firmly established, his economics has been largely overlooked. A Philosopher’s Economist offers the definitive account of Hume’s “worldly philosophy” and argues that economics was a central preoccupation of his life and work. Margaret Schabas and Carl Wennerlind show that Hume made important contributions to the science of economics, notably on money, trade, and public finance. Hume’s astute understanding of human behavior provided an important foundation for his economics and proved essential to his analysis of the ethical and political dimensions of capitalism. Hume also linked his economic theory with policy recommendations and sought to influence people in power. While in favor of the modern commercial world, believing that it had and would continue to raise standards of living, promote peaceful relations, and foster moral refinement, Hume was not an unqualified enthusiast. He recognized many of the underlying injustices of capitalism, its tendencies to promote avarice and inequality, as well as its potential for political instability and absolutism. Hume’s imprint on modern economics is profound and far-reaching, whether through his close friend Adam Smith or later admirers such as John Maynard Keynes and Friedrich Hayek. Schabas and Wennerlind’s book compels us to reconsider the centrality and legacy of Hume’s economic thought—for both his time and ours—and thus serves as an important springboard for reflections on the philosophical underpinnings of economics.
