Download or read book Urbicide written by Fernando Carrión Mena and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-23 with total page 930 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book uses the reflection of academics specialized in the urban area of ​​Latin America, Europe and the United States, to initiate a comparative debate of the different dynamics in which Urbicidio expresses itself. The field or focal point of analysis that this publication approaches is the city, but under a new critical perspective of inverse methodology to that has been traditional used. It is about understanding the structural causes of self-destruction to finally thinking better and then going from pessimism to optimism. It is a deep look at the city from an unconventional entrance, because it is about knowing and analyzing what the city loses by the action deployed by own urbanites, both in the field of its production and in the field of its consumption. This suppose that the city does not have an ascending linear sequential evolution in its development but neither in each of its parts in the improvement process, showing the face that commonly not seen but others live. The category used for this purpose is that of Urbicidio or the death of the city, which contributes theoretically and methodologically to the knowledge of the city, as well as to the design of urban policies that neutralize it. In addition, it is worth mentioning that the book has an inclusive view of the authors. For this reason, gender parity, territorial representation and the presence of age groups have been sought.

Book Gentrification around the World  Volume II

Download or read book Gentrification around the World Volume II written by Jerome Krase and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-09 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing together scholarly but readable essays on the process of gentrification, this two-volume collection addresses the broad question: In what ways does gentrification affect cities, neighborhoods, and the everyday experiences of ordinary people? In this second volume of Gentrification around the World, contributors contemplate different ways of thinking about gentrification and displacement in the abstract and “on-the-ground.” Chapters examine, among other topics, social class, development, im/migration, housing, race relations, political economy, power dynamics, inequality, displacement, social segregation, homogenization, urban policy, planning, and design. The qualitative methodologies used in each chapter—which emphasize ethnographic, participatory, and visual approaches that interrogate the representation of gentrification in the arts, film, and other mass media—are themselves a unique and pioneering way of studying gentrification and its consequences worldwide.

Book Urban Policy in Latin America

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 370 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.

Book The Self Build Experience

Download or read book The Self Build Experience written by Salet, Willem and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2020-05-06 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using a broad international comparative perspective spanning multiple countries across South America, Europe and Africa, contributors explore resident-led self-building for low and middle income groups in urban areas. Although social, economic and urban prosperity differs across these contexts, there exists a recurring, cross-continental, tension between formal governance and self-regulation. Contributors examine the multi-faceted regulation dilemmas of self-building under the conditions of modernization and consider alternative methods of institutionalization, place-making and urban design, reconceptualizing the moral and managerial ownership of the city. Innovative in scope, this book provides an array of globalized solutions for navigating regulatory tensions in order to optimize sustainable development for the future

Download or read book Post DomestiCity written by Diego Garcia-Setien and published by Actar D, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-07-06 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PostDomestiCity is an inquiry and speculative exercise into the conditions of obsolescence in the post-industrial city, from a contemporary perspective. Working with three paradigmatic cases that were conceived from industrial logics—the Packard plant in Detroit, Lima’s PREVI neighbourhood, and theGrand’Mare complex in Rouen—, we explore alternative ways of reusing, reprogramming, and redensifying the built environment as alternatives to demolition. Relevant voices in the field of architecture share their approaches and visions of the future for the pre-existing city, helping us imagine post-domesticity in the current climate crisis and socio-technological context.

This book was released on 2014-06-25 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El fracaso del proyecto moderno trajo consigo innumerables efectos negativos sobre la vida de los sujetos sociales. En la actual post modernidad convivimos en una sociedad en y de riesgo, amenazados por peligros naturales y/o generados por el hombre que constituyen diversos grados de peligrosidad latentes. Si a esto le sumamos la mayor vulnerabilidad que padece gran cantidad de sujetos en toda América Latina y Argentina en particular, las situaciones que tenemos que enfrentar como planificadores y gestores públicos para dar respuestas efectivas nos interpela a pensar en desarrollos de procesos interdisciplinares para actuar en la constitución del hábitat inclusivo, con participación activa de los directamente vulnerados en sus derechos a la ciudad, a un ambiente sano, desde un enfoque de derechos. Este libro aporta conceptos, herramientas e instrumentos para construir junto a otras disciplinas pero también para visibilizar las fortalezas y capacidades que posee el Trabajo Social en este temática desde los saberes y experiencias en actuaciones públicas sociales en catástrofes y emergencias considerando integralmente el proceso de gestión del riesgo.
