Book Parallel Patterns of Shrinking Cities and Urban Growth

Download or read book Parallel Patterns of Shrinking Cities and Urban Growth written by Rocky Piro and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-06 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focussing particularly on urban fringe and rural areas, this book addresses the parallel phenomena of growth and decline. In doing so, it not only broadens a debate which generally concentrates on urban municipalities, especially inner city areas, but also covers new ground by starting to build a new theoretical framework for the spatial planning related assessment of these phenomena. Bringing together contributions from internationally renowned authors, such as Sir Peter Hall, Steve Ward and Johann Jessen, the book compares international case studies and highlights their relationships with one another. It concludes by emphasizing common themes that are addressed, as well as showing applicability to other urban and rural regions. Overall, the book provides a timely and comprehensive analysis of the spatial consequences and related spatial planning concepts in theory and practice which aim to further sustainable development of city regions, urban fringe and rural areas experiencing growth and decline.

Book Migration as Transnational Leisure

Download or read book Migration as Transnational Leisure written by Jun Nagatomo and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-11-27 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Migration as Transnational Leisure: The Japanese Lifestyle Migrants in Australia Jun Nagatomo discusses a new type of migration in which “lifestyle” is at the core of middle class aspirations to migrate. Traditionally, international migration has been commonly seen as resulting from economic, political and religious causes. However, this book studies an intriguing new dynamic between the social transformation and the Japanese engagement with tourism and migration. Since the 1990s, when Japan was struggling with the recession, increasing numbers of young middle class Japanese began to drift from the safe and assured life course model and chose to live abroad. This book explores how lifestyle values affect migration decision of Japanese migrants in Australia and settlement processes in the migration destination.

Book The Politics Of Suffering

Download or read book The Politics Of Suffering written by Peter Sutton and published by Melbourne Univ. Publishing. This book was released on 2009-07-01 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Incandescent, emotional, tragic and challenging' - Marcia Langton In this groundbreaking book, Peter Sutton asks why, after three decades of liberal thinking, has the suffering and grief in so many Aboriginal communities become worse? The picture Sutton presents is tragic. He marshals shocking evidence against the failures of the past, and argues provocatively that three decades of liberal consensus on Aboriginal issues has collapsed. Sutton is a leading Australian anthropologist who has lived and worked closely with Aboriginal communities. He combines clear-eyed, original observation with deep emotional engagement. The Politics of Suffering cuts through the cant and offers fresh insight and hope for a new era in Indigenous politics.

Book Changeology

    Book Details:
  • Author : Les Robinson
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2012-10-18
  • ISBN : 0857840630
  • Pages : 341 pages

Download or read book Changeology written by Les Robinson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-10-18 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A toolkit for effective change, packed with useful information on how to influence the behaviour of human beings for the better. The pressing issues of today clamour for solutions, yet to a surprising degree past and present efforts to effect social change have been based on little more than hunches. This book dispels many of the myths that prevent social change projects from succeeding, and replaces them with the best of what we know from social and motivational psychology and lessons from projects that have worked. Changeology simplifies a vast body of theory and practice into six principles: buzz, hope, enabling environments, sticky solutions, 'can do' and the right inviter. These are explained with fascinating real-life stories and a look at the hard evidence, with amusing anecdotes and stories throughout. This fascinating book is relevant to change projects both large and small, and in almost any area of activity but with an emphasis on key topics such as climate change, poverty, obesity, AIDS, tobacco and drug use. Written in an easy, accessible style by change facilitator Les Robinson, it is aimed at a worldwide audience of professionals and individuals who are acting to make change in their corporations, cities and neighbourhoods, as well as in their own lives.
