This book was released on 2016-06-22 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le logement offre une excellente illustration de la difficulté à définir et à promouvoir un « modèle social européen ». Cet ouvrage, issu des travaux d'un atelier du GIS Réseau socioéconomie de l'habitat, est consacré à l'analyse des transformations du logement social dans l'Union européenne au cours des trois dernières décennies. Centré sur les pays d'Europe de l'Ouest qui furent à son origine : Angleterre, Allemagne, Autriche, Danemark, France, Irlande, Suède et Pays-Bas, il offre aussi un aperçu de la situation du logement social dans les pays d'Europe centrale et orientale, ainsi que dans les pays méditerranéens, où la propriété d'occupation domine, et où le logement social est soit inexistant soit très marginal. Même lorsqu'il reste une pièce essentielle de la politique du logement, le constat est celui d'une « révision générale » du logement social, dans ses missions comme dans ses modes de financement et de gouvernance. Au-delà de la distinction désormais classique entre modèles résiduel, généraliste et universaliste, il en ressort que les évolutions récentes vont parfois à l'encontre de certaines idées reçues. On relève ainsi l'importance maintenue du parc social britannique, malgré vingt ans de privatisations, qui contraste avec la quasi extinction du logement social traditionnel en Allemagne. La Suède a connu de profonds bouleversements, tandis qu'en France l'intervention de l'État reste forte. Le public averti trouvera ainsi de quoi nourrir sa réflexion sur la diversité des expériences européennes, et les profanes des informations jusqu'alors dispersées.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 1364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La valorisation marchande du parc stalinien de Saint-Pétersbourg procède de la reconnaissance d'un patrimoine architectural et social, hérité de la politique socialiste de l'habitat. Le système administré adopté au lendemain de la Révolution d'Octobre 1917 se basait en effet sur une égalité de principe. Si les outils de maîtrise publique visaient un développement urbain harmonieux et une juste répartition des biens, les modalités de production ou de gestion de l'habitat stalinien soulignaient dès l'origine l'existence d'urbanités différenciées.Or, la réforme systémique impulsée à la chute du régime socialiste les aura confortées. Les options politiques se voulaient radicales et, conformément à la "transition", la diffusion de la propriété privée était généralisée et la marché immobilier créé ; mais la privatisation des logements aux occupants, les difficultés économiques et la "Nomenklatura Privatization" témoignent de la dépendance du chemin. Objet de toutes les préférences de la population de Saint-Pétersbourg, l'habitat stalinien est valorisé sous le jour de ses qualités techniques et des caractéristiques de son peuplement. Il signifie l'inscription sur le marché d'un produit bâti et géré par le passé. Et si la production sociale de l'espace évolue depuis 1991, sous le jour d'un élitsme économique, elle s'opère toujours par le bâti. Le prestige de l'habitat stalinien est pérenne. Saint-Pétersbourg offre ainsi un objet de patrimonialisation, témoin d'une mutation spécifique des rapports au logement, soit de la valorisation marchande d'une aura symbolique héritée du passé socialiste.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2015 Abbott Lowell Cummings prize from the Vernacular Architecture Forum Winner of the 2015 Sprio Kostof Book Award from the Society of Architectural Historians Winner of the 2016 International Planning History Society Book Prize for European Planning History Honorable Mention: 2016 Wylie Prize in French Studies In the three decades following World War II, the French government engaged in one of the twentieth century’s greatest social and architectural experiments: transforming a mostly rural country into a modernized urban nation. Through the state-sanctioned construction of mass housing and development of towns on the outskirts of existing cities, a new world materialized where sixty years ago little more than cabbage and cottages existed. Known as the banlieue, the suburban landscapes that make up much of contemporary France are near-opposites of the historic cities they surround. Although these postwar environments of towers, slabs, and megastructures are often seen as a single utopian blueprint gone awry, Kenny Cupers demonstrates that their construction was instead driven by the intense aspirations and anxieties of a broad range of people. Narrating the complex interactions between architects, planners, policy makers, inhabitants, and social scientists, he shows how postwar dwelling was caught between the purview of the welfare state and the rise of mass consumerism. The Social Project unearths three decades of architectural and social experiments centered on the dwelling environment as it became an object of modernization, an everyday site of citizen participation, and a domain of social scientific expertise. Beyond state intervention, it was this new regime of knowledge production that made postwar modernism mainstream. The first comprehensive history of these wide-ranging urban projects, this book reveals how housing in postwar France shaped both contemporary urbanity and modern architecture.

Download or read book The Vietnamese City in Transition written by Patrick Gubry and published by Institute of Southeast Asian. This book was released on 2010 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the Doi Moi policy of economic renovation was introduced in 1986, Vietnam has undergone deep transformations as a result of the transition to a socialist-oriented market economy. Social and urban transition has taken place in parallel, as urban dynamics were spurred on by Vietnamese public and private stakeholders, and by external agents such as international organizations and international solidarity organizations, experts, consultants and bilateral aid organizations.Here are the results of research carried out by French, Canadian and Vietnamese teams from the north and south of the country on the overarching theme of Vietnamese cities in transition. Some of this research deals with urban dynamics, some with the issues at stake within such dynamics, or with the strategies of the most significant stakeholders in urban transition: civil society, donors within the framework of official aid for development, consultants and international consultancy firms. These projects were carried out between 2001 and 2004 as part of the Urban Research Programme for Development (PRUD), and mainly focus on Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, or both in the case of comparative studies.Is there such a thing as a Vietnamese model of an Asian city? It seems that urban transition in Vietnam is not taking place in as radical and abrupt a manner as in China. The country's capacity for absorbing external models, the quest for a third way between state intervention and economic liberalism, and the fact that the country's architectural heritage is taken into account in urban planning, are just some of the reasons for its particularity. The issues addressed in each chapter, as well as the proposals for further research suggested by the contributors, should act as a catalyst for urban research in Vietnam.

Download or read book The Breakdown of Class Politics written by Terry Nichols Clark and published by Woodrow Wilson Center Press. This book was released on 2001-05-22 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Class and its linkage to politics became a controversial and exciting topic again in the 1990s. Terry Clark and Seymour Martin Lipset published "Are Social Classes Dying?" in 1991, which sparked a lively debate and much new research. The main critics of Clark and Lipset—at Oxford and Berkeley—held (initially) that class was more persistent than Clark and Lipset suggested. The positions were sharply opposed and involved several conceptual and methodological concerns. But the issues grew more nuanced as further reflections and evidence accumulated. This book draws on four main conferences organized by the editors. Sharply contrasting views are forcefully argued with rich and subtle evidence. The volume includes a broad overview and synthesis; major reports by leading participants; and original theoretical and empirical contributions.

Download or read book Place and Politics written by John A. Agnew and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-03 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first part of the book is concerned with developing the place perspective. Three dimensions of place are put forward: locale and sense of place describe the objective and subjective dimensions of local social arrangements within which political behaviour is realized; location refers to the impact of the ‘macro-order’, to the fact that a single place is one among many and that the social life of a place is embedded in theworkings of the state and the world economy. The second part of the book provides detailed examinations of American and Scottish politics, using the place perspective. Contrary to the view that place or locality is important only in ‘traditional societies’, this book argues that place is of continuing significance in even the most ‘advanced’ societies.

Download or read book Syria Borders Boundaries and the State written by Matthieu Cimino and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-13 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the history of Syria’s borders and boundaries, from their creation (1920) until the civil war (2011) and their contestation by the Islamic State or the Kurdish movement. The volume’s main objective is to reconsider the “artificial” character of the Syrian territory and to reveal the processes by which its borders were shaped and eventually internalized by the country’s main actors. Based on extensive archival research, the book first documents the creation and stabilization of Syrian borders before and during the mandates period (nineteenth century to 1946), studying Ottoman and French territorialization strategies but also emphasizing the key role of the borderlands in this process. In turn, it investigates the perceptual boundaries resulting from the conflict, and how they materialized in space. Lastly, it explores the geographical and political imaginaries of non-state actors (PYD, ISIS) that emerged from the war.

Download or read book Beauvoir in Time written by Meryl Altman and published by Value Inquiry Book. This book was released on 2020 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Beauvoir in Time situates Simone de Beauvoir's The Second Sex in the historical context of its writing and in later contexts of its international reception, from then till now. The book takes up three aspects of Beauvoir's work more recent feminists find embarrassing: "bad sex," "dated" views about lesbians, and intersections with race and class. Through close reading of her writing in many genres, alongside contemporaneous discourses (good and bad novels in French and English, outmoded psychoanalytic and sexological authorities, ethnographic surrealism, the writing of Richard Wright and Franz Fanon), and in light of her travels to the U.S. and China, the author uncovers insights more recent feminist methodologies obscure, showing Beauvoir is still good to think with today"--

Download or read book Learning from the Slums for the Development of Emerging Cities written by Jean-Claude Bolay and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-29 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with slums as a specific question and a central focus in urban planning. It radically reverses the official version of the history of world cities as narrated during decades: slums are not at the margin of the contemporary process of urbanization; they are an integral part of it. Taking slums as its central focus and regarding them as symptomatic of the ongoing transformations of the city, the book moves to the very heart of the problem in urban planning. The book presents 16 case studies that form the basis for a theory of the slum and a concrete development manual for the slum. The interdisciplinary approach to analysing slums presented in this volume enables researchers to look at social and economic dimensions as well as at the constructive and spatial aspects of slums. Both at the scientific and the pedagogical level, it allows one to recognize the efforts of the slum’s residents, key players in the past, and present development of their neighborhoods, and to challenge public and private stakeholders on priorities decided in urban planning, and their mismatches when compared to the findings of experts and the demands of users. Whether one is a planner, an architect, a developer or simply an inhabitant of an emerging city, the presence of slums in one’s environment – at the same time central and nonetheless incongruous – makes a person ask questions. Today, it is out of the question to be satisfied with the assumption of the marginality of slums, or of the incongruous nature of their existence. Slums are now fully part of the urban landscape, contributing to the identity and the urbanism of cities and their stakeholders.

Download or read book The End of Class Politics written by Geoffrey Evans and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 1999-09-23 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last few decades has seen a prolonged debate over the nature and importance of social class as a basis for ideology, class voting and class politics. The prevailing assumption is that, in western societies, class inequalities are no longer important in determining political behaviour. In The End of Class Politics? leading scholars from the US, UK and Europe argue that the evidence on which the assumptions about the decline importance of class is based is unfounded. Instead, the book argues that the class basis of political competition has to some degree evolved, but not declined. Furthermore, the social basis of political competition and sweeping claims about the new politics of postindustrial society need to be re-examined.
