Download or read book The Imaginative Institution Planning and Governance in Madrid written by Michael Neuman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every 20 years since 1920, Madrid has undergone an urban planning cycle in which a city plan was prepared, adopted by law, and implemented by a new institution. This preparation-adoption-institutionalization sequence, along with the institution's structures and procedures, have persisted - with some exceptions - despite frequent upheavals in society. The planning institution itself played a lead role in maintaining continuity, traumatic history notwithstanding. Why and how was this the case? Madrid's planners, who had mostly trained as architects, invented new images for the city and metro region: images of urban space that were social constructs, the products of planning processes. These images were tools that coordinated planning and urban policy. In a complex, fragmented institutional milieu in which scores of organized interests competed in overlapping policy arenas, images were a cohesive force around which plans, policies, and investments were shaped. Planners in Madrid also used their images to build new institutions. Images began as city or metropolitan designs or as a metaphor capturing a new vision. New political regimes injected their principles and beliefs into the governing institution via images and metaphors. These images went a long way in constituting the new institution, and in helping realize each regime's goals. This empirically-based life cycle theory of institutional evolution suggests that the constitutional image sustaining the institution undergoes a change or is replaced by a new image, leading to a new or reformed institution. A life cycle typology of institutional transformation is formulated with four variables: type of change, stimulus for change, type of constitutional image, and outcome of the transformation. By linking the life cycle hypothesis with cognitive theories of image formation, and then situating their synthesis within a frame of cognition as a means of structuring the institution, this book arrives at a new theory
Download or read book Planning the Great Metropolis written by David Johnson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-01-09 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the Regional Plan Association embarks on a Fourth Regional Plan, there can be no better time for a paperback edition of David Johnson’s critically acclaimed assessment of the 1929 Regional Plan of New York and Its Environs. As he says in his preface to this edition, the questions faced by the regional planners of today are little changed from those their predecessors faced in the 1920s. Derided by some, accused by others of being the root cause of New York City’s relative economic and physical decline, the 1929 Plan was in reality an important source of ideas for many projects built during the New Deal era of the 1930s. In his detailed examination of the Plan, Johnson traces its origins to Progressive era and Daniel Burnham’s 1909 Plan of Chicago. He describes the making of the Plan under the direction of Scotsman Thomas Adams, its reception in the New York Region, and its partial realization. The story he tells has important lessons for planners, decision-makers and citizens facing an increasingly urban future where the physical plan approach may again have a critical role to play.

Download or read book Brothers Law Greed written by Steven Winer and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2020-06-24 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thaddeus Jaxxson Muizarajs, nicknamed TJ, and Dorian Jaxxson Muizarajs, nicknamed Cotton, two brothers who were children of immigrants from Latvia, both grew up and went to school in the Miami, Florida area. Neither felt that the locals, in the area, were accepting them as an integrated part of Miami society or culture. Their father, who had a difficult time obtaining decent work, always emphasized, to his sons, that in order to get ahead, in a culture that was hostile to their ethnicity, that a modest amount of pilfering from the wealthy and embellishments about their backgrounds and financials, were appropriate. Those would enhance their chances of increasing their income and improve their way of life. The brother’s parents were both killed in an automobile accident when the brothers were in high school. So, with a couple of small socialistic scholarships and the proceeds of the legal settlement they received from the death of their parents, both brothers decided to attend law school. After the graduation of the youngest brother, Cotton, the brothers decided to leave the Miami area and start their legal practice together, in a more accepting location in the Fort Myers, Florida, area where their ethnicity was deemed a better fit than on the East coast of Florida. They even changed their last names to Murry to better become assimilated into the area’s society. However, both brothers had little money. TJ, who was three years older than Cotton, had a different view on how to start and grow their law practice to become well known and increase their wealth. However, one thing they both recalled was their father’s advice as to what was acceptable to assist in becoming successful and accumulate wealth. Therefore, the brother’s, through several local businessmen they befriended, acquired the necessary funds to open their own law firm through providing fraudulent financial statements to obtain a large bank loan. The banker who granted the loan was aware of the brother’s fraudulent financials, as well as other fraudulent financials provided periodically to the bank. Through an implied threat of revealing the brothers false financials to the authorities, the banker obtained the brother’s understanding to become involved with a group of professional community leaders, in a web of deceit, fraudulent real estate loans, and other white collar criminal activities. TJ attempted to extradite himself from the criminal activity, but realized he had become too involved and was unable to get out. BROTHERS GREED & THE LAW, takes the reader through a journey that the brothers experienced involving multiple dishonest brokers, bankers, FBI agents and lawyers. Their fraudulent schemes involved the embezzlement of millions of dollars from innocent investors during the early days of the real estate boom in Florida in the 1980’s and 1990’s. Through an intriguing misunderstanding by the mastermind of these illegal schemes, and the inquisitiveness of several nonparticipants in the schemes, several innocent persons were murdered thinking that their deaths would keep the schemes from being discovered. A turn in events, by several of the perpetrators, and other unrelated parties to the schemes, causes the illegal activities to be revealed to the authorities. How the brothers extracted themselves from the legal consequences of the long time criminal enterprise was a turn in events that none of the participants, or the informers of the criminal enterprise, could have expected.

Download or read book Time History and International Law written by Matthew C. R. Craven and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2007 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines theoretical and practical issues concerning the relationship between international law, time and history. Problems relating to time and history are ever-present in the work of international lawyers, whether understood in terms of the role of historic practice in the doctrine of sources, the application of the principle of inter-temporal law in dispute settlement, or in gaining a coherent insight into the role that was played by international law in past events. But very little has been written about the various different ways in which international lawyers approach or understand the past, and it is with a view to exploring the dynamics of that engagement that this book has been compiled. In its broadest sense, it is possible to identify at least three different ways in which the relationship between international law and (its) history may be conceived. The first is that of a "history of international law" written in narrative form, and mapped out in terms of a teleology of origins, development, progress or renewal. The second is that of "history in international law" and of the role history plays in arguments about law itself (for example in the construction of customary international law). The third way of understanding that relationship is in terms of "international law in history": of understanding how international law has been engaged in the creation of a history that in some senses stands outside the history of international law itself. The essays in this collection make clear that each type of engagement with history and international law interweaves various different types of historical narrative, pointing to the typically multi-layered nature of internationallawyers' engagement with the past and its importance in shaping the present and future of international law.
