Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A medio camino entre El derecho a la ciudad (1968) y La producción del espacio (1974), La revolución urbana (1970) constituye el núcleo del "momento urbano" de Henri Lefebvre (1901-1991). La revolución que dio título a estas páginas era, por un lado, «virtual», y sólo ahora, años después, se ve confirmada: la sustitución del mundo industrial por el mundo urbano, en el que el espacio pasa a ser el código de estructuración de una realidad capitalista que se define por el ocaso del campo y la ciudad, fundidos y sustituidos por algo nuevo: «lo urbano». Pero por otro lado también era -y es- una revolución «posible», que encontraba en este mismo principio las semillas de una transformación radical del espacio social impuesto por el capitalismo tardío para sentar las bases de la geografía crítica de nombres como David Harvey, Edward Soja o Neil Brenner. Introducción de Álvaro Sevilla Buitrago
Download or read book Ciudades rebeldes written by David Harvey and published by Ediciones AKAL. This book was released on 2013-04-09 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mucho antes de que se creara el movimiento 15-M u Occupy Wall Street, las ciudades del mundo moderno se habían convertido en focos de la política revolucionaria, en los que emergían a la superficie las corrientes más profundas del cambio social y político. Las ciudades han sido, desde siempre, objeto de reflexión utópica y revolucionaria. Sin embargo, al mismo tiempo, la ciudad ha sido centros de la acumulación capitalista y línea del frente en las luchas por el control del acceso a los recursos urbanos así como de la calidad y organización de la vida cotidiana. ¿A quién corresponde ese control de la urbe, a los financieros y promotores inmobiliarios, o al pueblo? Ciudades rebeldes sitúa la ciudad en el centro de la lucha de clases y en torno al capital, desde Johannesburgo hasta Bombay y desde Nueva York hasta São Paulo. Dirigiendo su atención tanto a la Comuna de París como al movimiento Occupy Wall Street y los disturbios en Londres, Harvey se pregunta cómo se pueden reorganizar las ciudades de una forma socialmente más justa y ecológicamente más sana, y cómo se pueden convertir en el centro de la resistencia anticapitalista. «“¿De quién son las calles? ¡Nuestras!” En Ciudades rebeldes David Harvey nos muestra cómo podemos convertir en realidad ese dictamen. La tarea –y este libro– difícilmente podrían ser más importantes.» Benjamin Kunkel, autor de Indecision y fundador de la web n+1 «David Harvey provocó una revolución en su especialidad y ha inspirado a una generación de intelectuales radicales.» Naomi Klein «Análisis con escalpelo, despiadado.» Owen Hatherley, The Guardian «Lo que proclama Harvey es que somos “nosotros”, no los promotores inmobiliarios, los planificadores empresariales o las elites políticas, los que construimos verdaderamente la ciudad, y que sólo a nosotros nos corresponde el derecho a controlarla.» Jonathan Moses, Open Democracy «Los intelectuales del movimiento Occupy apreciarán las descripciones expuestas en Ciudades rebeldes de diversos ejemplos históricos e internacionales de luchas urbanas por recuperar el espacio público y construir su cultura, y sin duda hallarán motivo de inspiración en las reflexiones de Harvey sobre cómo desarrollar un movimiento anticapitalista revolucionario vivaz y resistente.» Publisher's Weekly «Una voz inteligente y coherente desde la izquierda.» Edwin Heathcote, Financial Times

Download or read book Social Strategies Building the City written by Marielly Casanova and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2019 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social housing is a complex system integrated by social, economic, political and city making processes. Social practices in the called social production of the habitat provide clues to understand an alternative way to approach housing solutions in which several dimensions coexist. Through the rationalization of social (self-management), economic (social economy) and urban principles, it was possible the construction of typologies to document and evaluate 3 case studies in Latin America. This book provides a foundation for future research and conception of social housing policies and programs.
Download or read book Cuba Since the Revolution of 1959 written by Samuel Farber and published by Haymarket Books. This book was released on 2011-12-13 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Frequent insights, stimulating historical comparisons, and command of the data relating to Cuba’s economic and social performance.” —Foreign Affairs Uncritically lauded by the left and impulsively denounced by the right, the Cuban Revolution is almost universally viewed one dimensionally. In this book, Samuel Farber, one of its most informed left-wing critics, provides a much-needed critical assessment of the Revolution’s impact and legacy. “The Cuban story twists and turns as we speak, so thank goodness for scholars such as Samuel Farber, an unapologetic Marxist whose knowledge of Cuban affairs is unrivalled . . . In this excellent, necessary book, Farber takes stock of fifty years of revolutionary control by recognizing achievements but lambasting authoritarianism.” —Latin American Review of Books “A courageous and formidable balance-sheet of the Cuban Revolution, including a sobering analysis of a draconian ‘reform’ program that will only deepen the gulf between revolutionary slogans and the actual life of the people.” —Mike Davis, author of Planet of Slums
Download or read book Teor a de las condiciones y los servicios generales de la producci n written by Gustavo Garza and published by El Colegio de Mexico AC. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La economía política de la urbanización asume que las condiciones generales de la producción constituyen el determinante histórico fundamental de la concentración espacial del capital. En este libro, primero de una trilogía sobre el tema, se extiende esa categoría proponiendo la existencia del binomio condiciones y servicios generales de la producción, como un concepto más adecuado para comprender las aglomeraciones metropolitanas contemporáneas. En la primera parte de la obra se analiza la evolución de dicha categoría dentro de la teoría del capital, su desarrollo histórico mundial como andamiaje infraestructural, así como su definición, tipología y características. En la segunda parte se inicia un estudio empírico sobre el vínculo de la infraestructura con la competitividad urbana y, principalmente, la cuestión de su financiamiento en el caso de la Ciudad de México.

Download or read book Land Squandering and Social Crisis in the Spanish City written by Jesús Manuel González Pérez and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2019-06-20 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last two decades have been marked by intense and accelerated economic, political, and cultural processes that have affected urban spaces. These changes have occurred in different parts of cities (traditional centers, edges, peripheries) and at different levels of the urban system (large and medium-sized cities and in their respective areas of influence). Possibly the clearest expression of the spatial effects on cities can be perceived in their morphological transformations, their territorial dimensions, or in their social problems. Until 2008, urban–territorial processes were a reflection of the logic and inconsistencies of an expansive economic context and of a structural context that favored the development of cities through concurrent processes and actors. As a result, the built land and amount of urbanized and built surfaces increased, together with processes of the expansion and modernization of cities. Since 2008, the expansive economic cycle has ended, and there have been diverse negative consequences. Notably, the construction sector has come to an abrupt halt. Access to credit has also been reduced, and unemployment has increased. The economic recession has caused sociodemographic and socioeconomic issues exemplified by housing vulnerability, with dispossession, evictions, a shortage of social housing, and energy poverty.
Download or read book Urbanization and Migration in Three Continents written by Alejandro Portes and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-04-04 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a systematic historical analysis of the relationships between migration and the development of cities, including their physical, economic, and cultural evolution. The volume results from a comparative project that examines the interface between migration and the development of cities throughout different periods including current conditions. Nine strategic sites are examined: Three cities in Europe, three in Latin America and three in North America. The editors contribute to the analysis by summarizing lessons from the cases discussed and by providing a glimpse at the relevance of the study of migration and cities historically. Urbanization and Migration in Three Continents will be a key resource for academics, researchers, and students of sociology, migration studies, race and ethnic studies, history, anthropology, urban studies, and economics. This book was originally published as a special issue of Ethnic and Racial Studies.
Download or read book Geographies of Forced Eviction written by Katherine Brickell and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-01-09 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a close look at forced evictions, drawing on empirical studies and conceptual frameworks from both the Global North and South. It draws attention to arenas where multiple logics of urban dispossession, violence and insecurity are manifest, and where wider socio-economic, political and legal struggles converge. The authors highlight the need to apply emotional and affective registers of dispossession and insecurity to the socio-political and financial economies driving forced evictions across geographic scales. The chapters each consider the distinct urban logics of precarious housing or involuntary displacements that stretch across London, Barcelona, Rio de Janeiro, Shanghai and Colombo. A timely addition to existing literature on urban studies, this collection will be of great interest to policy makers and scholars of human geography, development studies, and sociology.
