Download or read book Urban Policy in Latin America written by Michael Cohen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-26 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book evaluates the impact of 20 years of urban policies in six Latin American countries: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador and Mexico. It argues that evaluating the fulfillment of past commitments is essential for framing and meeting the new commitments that were taken in Habitat III over the next 20 years. Taken as a whole, the book provides a critical assessment of the economic, social and environmental consequences of urban interventions during Habitat II. The country-level chapters have been written by recognized experts in urban issues, with first-hand knowledge of the Habitat process, and deep familiarity with the problems, statistics, actors and political contexts of their nations. The latter part of the volume considers wider topics such as the Habitat Commitment Index, the New Urban Agenda and the regional and global-scale lessons that can be extracted from this group of countries. Urban Policy in Latin America will be of interest to advanced students, researchers and policymakers across development economics, urban studies and Latin American studies.

Download or read book Social Urbanism in Latin America written by Carlos Leite and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-11 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights current concepts of Social Urbanism, the contemporary set of multiple and interdisciplinary urban studies that have emerged mainly from the complex realities of Latin American cities. The discussion that follows places special emphasis on public land policy and the innovative urban instruments developed in that region to promote social and territorial inclusion. Critical reflections throughout the pages of this book shed light into the local context of each case-study in order to understand their specific set of challenges and opportunities. Relevant lessons are extracted from the three cities here analyzed, the medium-scale city of Medellin, the large-scale city of Bogota, and the megacity of Sao Paulo, as well as from local innovative experiences in Argentina and Uruguay. These cities underwent promising transformation processes over two decades, applying planning and financing instruments of land policy which have produced significant shifts in the urban development paradigm in the region. The quest for social inclusion has emerged as the common denominator in these cities, awakening growing interest across several fields of urban studies, from public policies and city management to urban law, city financing, urban development, and innovative community participation processes. The book brings implications on urban land policy for transition cities in the Global South. The question of social inclusion in Global South cities is however far from being solved; the analysis presented in this book shows advances and hope, besides a long path still ahead, which can only be faced through a continuous and challenging incremental process. May this book be an incremental step.

Download or read book The Urban Poor in Latin America written by Marianne Fay and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2005 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About half of the region's poor live in cities, and policy makers across Latin America are increasingly interested in policy advice on how to design programmes and policies to tackle poverty. This publication argues that the causes of poverty, the nature of deprivation, and the policy levers to fight poverty are, to a large extent, site specific. It therefore focuses on strategies to assist the urban poor in making the most of the opportunities offered by cities, such as larger labour markets and better services, while helping them cope with the negative aspects, such as higher housing costs, pollution, risk of crime and less social capital.

Book excerpt: The main purpose of this paper is to analyze the strong interrelations that developed among economic and urban programs in the early 1950s. A particular attention is devoted to the case of big Latin American cities, since it was there - even more than in Europe or North America - that the multifaceted programming effort gained its greater momentum. The need for wide interventions for economic and urban development after World War II found of course its first application during the European Recovery period. The Marshall Plan on one side, and regional plans for territorial reorganization which were set on in countries like Great Britain, the Netherlands, and Germany, on the other side, were clear examples of the widespread new programming approach to development of European countries. The plan was the main tool, common to economic as well as to urban policies, while equilibrium was the principal concept, which framed the elaboration and the implementation of any development plan. As for economics, many scholars and analysts developed the so-called theory of balanced growth, where the breaking of vicious circles of poverty and the success of critical efforts toward development could not avoid to consider interdependences between supply and demand sides, urban and rural sectors, different industries. As for territorial policies, the equilibrated development of urban tissues and resources was the concrete, material shape of social progress. These ideas and suggestions had a great opportunity of implementation in the newborn so-called Third World, and many professional advisers devoted themselves to development of backward countries. We identified in Colombia a case worthy of study, since it catalyzed attention of both economists and urban planners. In fact, Colombia was the first backward country to host a general survey mission by the World Bank, which was expected to be the pattern for further Bank's actions toward less developed countries. The mission's leader, Lauchlin Currie, former special economic advisor to Franklin Delano Roosevelt, eventually decided to reside in Colombia, where he implemented many development plans. In the same years, some amongst the most important architects travelled to Latin America, where they thought they could realize urban plans to a scope that had not been possible in Europe. What is particularly interesting to the aims of the present paper, is the fact that Le Corbusier and Jose Luis Sert, president of CIAM (International Congresses of Modern Architecture), both worked in Colombia. Furthermore, Sert and Currie established an active collaboration upon the development plan for the city of Bogota. Economic and urban planning merged together in a comprehensive development plan.
