Book excerpt: Les villes d’Europe font de plus en plus face aux problèmes causés par le transport et la circulation. Dans le même temps, la mobilité urbaine est cruciale pour les villes européennes et contribue de manière essentielle à la croissance économique, aux emplois et à la compétitivité. La question de savoir comment améliorer la mobilité tout en réduisant les embouteillages, les accidents et la pollution est un défi partagé par toutes les villes importantes. Pendant des décennies la Commission européenne a favorisé le développement et l’application de nouvelles approches durables de la mobilité urbaine ainsi que des solutions novatrices par le biais de ses politiques, par l’intermédiaire des Fonds structurels et d’investissement européens et de ses programmes de financement de la recherche et de l’innovation. L’Europe dispose d’une expérience unique et largement respectée sur la mobilité urbaine durable. La Commission européenne voudrait s’assurer que cette expérience soit partagée avec des intervenants du monde entier. Ce livret présente une vue d’ensemble des principales caractéristiques de la politique de mobilité urbaine de l’Union européenne, des politiques connexes, des tendances sous-jacentes, des instruments de financement ainsi que des possibilités de coopération.

Download or read book La place des habitants dans les politiques urbaines en Europe written by Claude Jacquier and published by Profession Banlieue. This book was released on 2007 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depuis le milieu des années soixante-dix, toutes les villes européennes ont été confrontées à de profondes mutations des systèmes économiques, dont une des conséquences majeures réside dans l'accroissement des inégalités sociales et territoriales. Pour tenter d'enrayer ce processus, les différents pays européens ont développé des " politiques de la ville ", ou politiques de renouvellement urbain, dans le double but de redynamiser les économies locales et d'améliorer la qualité de vie de la ville. Au-delà de leurs caractéristiques propres, ces politiques insistent, partout en Europe, sur la nécessité que les projets soient définis, dirigés et mis en œuvre sous la responsabilité des élus locaux, mais avec - et si possible par - les habitants les plus directement concernés. Les références théoriques et politiques sur lesquelles s'appuient ces politiques sont bien évidemment l'héritage d'une histoire. Ainsi, les formes que prend la participation des habitants se singularisent d'un pays européen à un autre. Quelles leçons les professionnels de la politique de la ville de la Seine-Saint-Denis peuvent-ils tirer de l'analyse des politiques de renouvellement urbain développées en Europe, notamment en matière de participation des habitants ? Comment enrichir les référentiels d'action à partir de ces démarches locales multiples expérimentées depuis plusieurs années ?

Download or read book The European Landscape Convention written by Michael Jones and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-02-09 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important and insightful book provides, for the first time, a broad presentation of ongoing research into public participation in landscape conservation, management and planning, following the 2000 European Landscape Convention which came into force in 2004. The book examines both the theory of participation and what lessons can be learnt from specific European examples. It explores in what manner and to what extent the provisions for participation in the European Landscape Convention have been followed up and implemented. It also presents and compares different experiences of participation in selected countries from northern, southern, eastern and western Europe, and provides a critical examination of public participation in practice. However, while the book’s focus is necessarily on Europe, many of the conclusions drawn are of global relevance. The book provides a valuable reference for researchers and advanced students in landscape policies and management, as well as for professionals and others interested in land-use planning and environmental management.

Download or read book Public and Private Welfare in Modern Europe written by Fabio Giomi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-03-28 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 1980s, neoliberals have openly contested the idea that the state should protect the socio-economic well-being of its citizens, making ‘privatization’ their mantra. Yet, as historians and social scientists have shown, welfare has always been a ‘mixed economy’, wherein private and public actors dynamically interacted, collaborating or competing with each other in the provision of welfare services. This book will be of interest to students, scholars and practitioners of welfare by developing three innovative approaches. Firstly, it illuminates the productive nature of public/private entanglements. Far from amounting to a zero-sum game, the interactions between the two sectors have changed over time what welfare encompasses, its contents and targets, often engendering the creation of new fields of intervention. Secondly, this book departs from a well-established tradition of comparison between Western nation-states by using and mixing various scales of analysis (local, national, international and global) and by covering case studies from Spain to Poland and France to Greece in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Thirdly, this book goes beyond state centrism in welfare studies by bringing back a host of public and private actors, from municipalities to international organizations, from older charities to modern NGOs.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: QUINZE universitaires venus d'Espagne, du Royaume-Uni, des Pays-Bas et de France - six étrangers et neuf Français - se sont efforcés d'inventorier les formes de commandement des villes dans des systèmes étatiques différents, mais tous influencés par une économie pré-industrielle marquée par un capitalisme commercial, une société d'ordres et une culture politique profondément religieuse en procès de sécularisation. Leurs réflexions, dont ce livre rend compte, se sont organisées autour de trois axes majeurs : Pouvoir municipal et État : Logique d'affrontement ou de concertation et traduction dans la culture politique de l'âge moderne. Formation des aires d'influence : Quelle attraction exerce la ville ? Quelles formes de contrôle établit-elle sur l'espace régional ? Comment se réorganise son espace ? Sociologie des élites dirigeantes : Fonctions urbaines et hiérarchisation des élites. Oligarchie municipale. Reproduction de cette élite (fermeture ou rotation importante ?). Les questionnements les plus innovants de la recherche historique récente ont ainsi été dégagés au cours de ce colloque.

Download or read book Green Cities of Europe written by Timothy Beatley and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2012-05-15 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the absence of federal leadership, states and localities are stepping forward to address critical problems like climate change, urban sprawl, and polluted water and air. Making a city fundamentally sustainable is a daunting task, but fortunately, there are dynamic, innovative models outside U.S. borders. Green Cities of Europe draws on the world's best examples of sustainability to show how other cities can become greener and more livable. Timothy Beatley has brought together leading experts from Paris, Freiburg, Copenhagen, Helsinki, Heidelberg, Venice, Vitoria-Gasteiz, and London to illustrate groundbreaking practices in sustainable urban planning and design. These cities are developing strong urban cores, building pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, and improving public transit. They are incorporating ecological design and planning concepts, from solar energy to natural drainage and community gardens. And they are changing the way government works, instituting municipal "green audits" and reforming economic incentives to encourage sustainability. Whatever their specific tactics, these communities prove that a holistic approach is needed to solve environmental problems and make cities sustainable. Beatley and these esteemed contributors offer vital lessons to the domestic planning community about not only what European cities are doing to achieve that vision, but precisely how they are doing it. The result is an indispensable guide to greening American cities. Contributors include: Lucie Laurian (Paris) Dale Medearis and Wulf Daseking (Freiburg) Michaela Brüel (Copenhagen) Maria Jaakkola (Helsinki) Marta Moretti (Venice) Luis Andrés Orive and Rebeca Dios Lema (Vitoria-Gasteiz) Camilla Ween (London)

Download or read book Social Innovations in the Urban Context written by Taco Brandsen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-05 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the practice of social innovation, which is currently very much in the public eye. New ideas and approaches are needed to tackle the severe and wicked problems with which contemporary societies are struggling. Especially in times of economic crisis, social innovation is regarded as one of the crucial elements needed to move forward. Our knowledge of its dynamics has significantly progressed, thanks to an abundance of studies on social innovation both general and sector-specific. However, despite the valuable research conducted over the past years, the systematic analysis of social innovation is still contested and incomplete. The questions asked in the book will be the following: 1. What is the nature of social innovations? 2.What patterns can be identified in social innovations emerging at the local level? 3.How is the emergence and spread of social innovations related to urban governance? More precisely, which conditions and arrangements facilitate and hinders social innovation? We explore these questions using different types of data and methods, and studying different contexts. In particular, we focus on innovations that aim at solving problems of the young unemployed, single parents and migrants. This analysis is based on original research carried out in the period 2010-2013 in the framework of a European project with a specific empirical research strategy. Research was carried out in 20 cities in 10 different European countries.
