Book Gentrification and Resistance

Download or read book Gentrification and Resistance written by Ilse Helbrecht and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-06 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gentrification is arguably the most dynamic area of conflict in current urban development policy – it is the process by which poorer populations are displaced by more affluent groups. Although gentrification is well-documented, German and international research largely focuses on improvements in the built environment and social composition of neighbourhoods. The consequences for those who are displaced often remain overlooked. Where do they move? What does it mean to be forced to leave a familiar residential area? What kinds of resistance strategies are developed? How does anti-gentrification work? With a focus on Berlin – the German "capital of gentrification" – the chapters in this volume use innovative methods to explore these pressing questions.

Poverty in Germany is a largely unknown issue. But it exists! Even more concerning: 16.5 % of all German households are threatened by poverty as well. What can politicians do to help those people?

Second, we show that policy options exist and third how these measures take hold in practise.

Book Social Housing in Europe

Download or read book Social Housing in Europe written by Kathleen Scanlon and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-09-29 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All countries aim to improve housing conditions for their citizens but many have been forced by the financial crisis to reduce government expenditure. Social housing is at the crux of this tension. Policy-makers, practitioners and academics want to know how other systems work and are looking for something written in clear English, where there is a depth of understanding of the literature in other languages and direct contributions from country experts across the continent. Social Housing in Europe combines a comparative overview of European social housing written by scholars with in-depth chapters written by international housing experts. The countries covered include Austria, Denmark, England, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, The Netherlands and Sweden, with a further chapter devoted to CEE countries other than Hungary. The book provides an up-to-date international comparison of social housing policy and practice. It offers an analysis of how the social housing system currently works in each country, supported by relevant statistics. It identifies European trends in the sector, and opportunities for innovation and improvement. These country-specific chapters are accompanied by topical thematic chapters dealing with subjects such as the role of social housing in urban regeneration, the privatisation of social housing, financing models, and the impact of European Union state aid regulations on the definitions and financing of social housing.

Book Contesting Neoliberalism

    Book Details:
  • Author : Helga Leitner
  • Publisher : Guilford Press
  • Release : 2007-01-01
  • ISBN : 1593853203
  • Pages : 354 pages

Download or read book Contesting Neoliberalism written by Helga Leitner and published by Guilford Press. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neoliberalism's "market revolution"--realized through practices like privatization, deregulation, fiscal devolution, and workfare programs--has had a transformative effect on contemporary cities. The consequences of market-oriented politics for urban life have been widely studied, but less attention has been given to how grassroots groups, nongovernmental organizations, and progressive city administrations are fighting back. In case studies written from a variety of theoretical and political perspectives, this book examines how struggles around such issues as affordable housing, public services and space, neighborhood sustainability, living wages, workers' rights, fair trade, and democratic governance are reshaping urban political geographies in North America and around the world.

Book Wirtschaftsenglisch W  rterbuch

Download or read book Wirtschaftsenglisch W rterbuch written by Theodor Van Bernem and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2014-09-01 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Dynamik der ökonomischen Entwicklung spiegelt sich in der ständigen Weiterentwicklung und Verfeinerung der Wirtschaftssprache wieder. Ebenso wie moderne, zukunftsorientierte Unternehmen nur noch in weltwirtschaftlichen Maßstäben planen und handeln, findet der wirtschaftswissenschaftliche und praktische Austausch zu einem immer größer werdenden Teil in internationalen Zusammenhänge statt. Der Leser wirtschaftswissenschaftlicher Fachliteratur stellt bald fest, daß die ständige zunehmende Fülle von Zeitschriften und Monographien zu einem bedeutenden Teil in englischer Sprache erscheint, die auch die Grundlage für einen "grenzlosen" fachwissenschaftlichen Diskurs darstellt. Der Einfluß der angloamerikanischen Forschung auf die Wirtschaftswissenschaften und die veröffentlichte Literatur ist dabei unübersehbar. Aus diesem Grunde ist das vorliegende Wörterbuch, das Studenten, Dozenten und Praktikern eine Hilfe für die Bewältigung der aktuellen Fachliteratur an die Hand gibt, speziell auf den amerikanischen Bereich zugeschnitten, wobei berücksichtigt wird, daß das Studium der Wirtschaftswissenschaften in zunehmenden Maße tätigkeitsfeldorientiert betrieben wird. Das Lexikon geht knapp aber gezielt auf wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Belange ein. In diesem Sinne ergänzt es bereits vorhandene Lexika, ohne sie zu ersetzen. Es ist das Ergebnis einer engen Kooperation zwischen Hochschullehrern, wissenschaftlichen Mitarbeitern und engagierten Studenten aus dem Integrierten Auslandsstudium.

Book Ludwig Hilberseimer

    Book Details:
  • Author : Scott Colman
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2023-07-27
  • ISBN : 1350068039
  • Pages : 393 pages

Download or read book Ludwig Hilberseimer written by Scott Colman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-07-27 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The German-American architect, art critic, and urban planner Ludwig Hilberseimer was central to avant-garde art and architecture in the Weimar Republic, an important Bauhaus teacher, and long-standing collaborator of leading modern architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. Despite being internationally-known for his work on Lafayette Park in Detroit, Hilberseimer's legacy as a whole has been obscured in the history of modern architecture. Whether this is due to the intense shadow cast by Mies, or by his oeuvre being split between the differing languages and contexts of interwar Germany and postwar North America, this book argues that the time is now right for a critical reassessment of Hilberseimer's work and writings. Published as part of the Bloomsbury Studies in Modern Architecture series, which brings to light the work of significant yet overlooked modernist architects, this study clarifies and situates Hilberseimer's ideas both as an architect and writer, and examines their influence on modern and contemporary architecture and urbanism. The first synthetic account of Hilberseimer in English, it provides a contextual account of Hilberseimer's works which have until now been subject to fragmentary or highly specialized interpretations. By demonstrating the influence of Hilberseimer's ideas on the architecture of Mies van der Rohe, the book also lends Mies's work a newfound urban significance.

Book Wilhelmsburg is our home

Download or read book Wilhelmsburg is our home written by Julie Chamberlain and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2022-10-31 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a neighbourhood facing massive redevelopment, racialized residents speak about stigma, social mixing, and what the island community means to them. Based on rich interviews, photographs, and archival research, Julie Chamberlain rejects the usual silence in German urban studies around racialization and examines how constructing some groups as »not belonging« has shaped Hamburg-Wilhelmsburg's past and present. For racialized long-time residents, it is Heimat, a space of belonging in the context of exclusion. As social mix policy threatens that belonging, residents explore their hopes and their fears for the future of an urban space where gentrification looms.
