Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Probablemente es en los procesos metropolitanos donde de forma más clara y extendida, en lo que respecta a las sociedades modernas, se manifiesta la nueva condición de lo urbano y la auténtica escala y organización de la ciudad real contemporánea. En su acepción más básica un área metropolitana no es sino un área urbana polinuclear que conforma un mercado unitario de residencia y trabajo, que refleja a la vez el aumento de escala del «espacio de vida» colectivo y las diferentes estrategias espaciales de los agentes económicos. La expansión física de los procesos de urbanización, no sólo como prolongación del casco histórico sino también «colonizando» con significativas discontinuidades espaciales, el espacio rural y otros núcleos de población de su entorno, y la evidente superación de los límites administrativos tradicionales, constituyen fenómenos en los que están inmersos en la actualidad más del sesenta por ciento de los habitantes de nuestro país y una proporción aún mayor de sus empleos y actividades económicas. Sin embargo, a pesar de la evidente e innegable dimensión y alcance de esta nueva realidad territorial, su reconocimiento es todavía limitado y se tiene que ir abriendo paso con dificultad tanto en el campo de las políticas públicas como en el de su tratamiento y análisis científico. Y así va sucediendo de una forma quizás lenta, pero también necesariamente imparable. Es necesario abordar, como se hace en una mayoría de países avanzados, el reconocimiento de la ciudad real sobre bases bien fundadas y comunes que sirvan para una correcta definición y delimitación de la misma y, consecuentemente, para recoger, presentar y posteriormente analizar y evaluar su dimensión y funcionamiento. El núcleo básico de autores que presentan aquí sus contribuciones llevan trabajando más de dos décadas en esta materia, y desarrollan una línea de trabajo conjunta que implica numerosas sinergias y potencialidades, entre las que se pueden destacar dos: la voluntad de superar análisis locales y regionales para ofrecer una visión global de los nuevos procesos urbanos y metropolitanos a escala de toda España y, en segundo lugar, la de, partiendo de una definición común de estos espacios, intentar ir aproximándose a su compleja organización y funcionalidad.
Download or read book Urban Governance in Southern Europe written by Abel Albet and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-11 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of governance has evolved into one of the most important but also controversial concepts in urban politics. While it encourages co-operation, participation and collective construction, at the same time, it has brought about new forms of public demission, oligarchic regimes and less local democracy. The dilemmas accompanying these changes are particularly relevant when observing the cities of Southern Europe, whose socio-cultural specificities very much structure local political and policy materialisations. Bringing together a team of leading scholars from across the social sciences, this volume examines the issues of urban governance in the Southern European context. Illustrated by case studies of several main cities and metropoles on the North Mediterranean coast, it introduces and critically analyses the latest theories and approaches to urban governance. It questions how the 'real' or socio-cultural notion of city seems to have been separated from that of the 'political' city and explores how more integrated socio-political forms might be developed. It looks at current structures, dynamics and cultures of governance in urban development and questions whether they are well adapted to new realities and challenges or whether there are significant imbalances causing limited or fragmented political-administrative visions. By considering both the long Mediterranean history along with the recent but enduring global economic and political developments, this book argues that Southern European cities will have to depend greatly upon its own socio-cultural networks, dynamics and cosmopolitan evolution, making the most of the region's characteristic urban strengths, as trading hubs, with rich hinterlands and large and varied population.

Download or read book Las reas urbanas funcionales en Espa a written by Carlos Albert Pérez and published by Fundacion BBVA. This book was released on 2020-06-17 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La presente obra tiene como objetivo el análisis de las características económicas, el papel de las economías de aglomeración, la capacidad innovadora y la calidad de vida de las 73 áreas urbanas funcionales españolas. Con este fin, se ha hecho uso de distintas fuentes de información, entre ellas la base de datos de Urban Audit (INE y Eurostat), datos censales y registros de afiliados a la Seguridad Social a nivel municipal. La metodología empleada ha incluido la construcción de una amplia variedad de índices de especialización y de cambio estructural, así como la elaboración de índices compuestos mediante diversos procedimientos de agregación, entre los que se incluye el análisis de componentes principales. Los resultados obtenidos han permitido constatar que los ingresos, el empleo en ocupaciones que requieren una cualificación elevada y la acumulación de activos de la propiedad intelectual (patentes, marcas, diseños, etc.) crecen más que proporcionalmente respecto a la población de las áreas estudiadas, aunque también lo hacen algunos fenómenos de carácter negativo, como la delincuencia. La elaboración de un índice compuesto que sintetiza un conjunto de variables relacionadas con la innovación ha puesto de relieve, además, que Madrid y Barcelona se sitúan a la cabeza del sistema urbano español en esta materia, pero que también ocupan buenas posiciones algunas otras áreas grandes, como Bilbao y Zaragoza, o de dimensión intermedia, como Santiago de Compostela, Girona, Pamplona/Iruña, Donostia/San Sebastián, Oviedo y Toledo. En lo que atañe a la calidad de vida, se ha comprobado que Madrid, Barcelona y algunas ciudades del cuadrante nordeste de la Península, así como varios destinos turísticos conocidos, destacan por su nivel socioeconómico, y que a ellas se unen, por sus positivas condiciones generales de habitabilidad, algunas ciudades de tamaño intermedio; mientras que en una tercera dimensión, concerniente a las condiciones de salud, la pauta geográfica está menos definida. Esta monografía va dirigida no solo a los expertos en urbanismo, sino también a los responsables de gestión de la planificación urbana o territorial en diversas administraciones, así como al público en general que encontrará aquí ideas de interés con relación a los temas referidos.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume highlights the geographies of six European Mediterranean countries: France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Turkey and Greece. The book provides a balanced overview on what the geographers of these six countries have investigated and reflected in recent decades. This thematically arranged book takes into account the national differences of the authors, but also highlights the main contributions of Mediterranean geographies on a global scale. It reinforces a perception of common problems and debates in Southern Europe. This book appeals to the institutionalized geographical community of Mediterranean countries but also to a global audience of scholars of geography, territorial and spatial studies, social sciences and history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first systematic study of policy analysis activities in Spain. It provides a comprehensive overview of how policy actors, including politicians, think tanks, researchers, interest groups and experts, generate information for the policy-making process. The book explores how executive and legislative actors participate in the production of policy analysis and how all actors elaborate and disseminate information on policy analysis. Contributors consider the ways different policy actors are involved in the production of data and information about policy problems, the resources used to produce policy analysis and the type of analysis produced over time in different policy areas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neoliberal paradigms and the privatisation of housing have recently been confronted with social movements in many large European metropolises. The political and social need for more participation in housing, for new forms of urban land politics and for specific and powerful rental regulation is obvious. The special book section analyses these dimensions of housing and housing politics in a comparative European perspective and discusses new policy approaches for urban housing. Furthermore, the Jahrbuch StadtRegionoffers scientific articles and reports, as well as a monitoring section and book reviews related to interdisciplinary urban research and planning issues.
Download or read book Land Squandering and Social Crisis in the Spanish City written by Jesús Manuel González Pérez and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2019-06-20 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last two decades have been marked by intense and accelerated economic, political, and cultural processes that have affected urban spaces. These changes have occurred in different parts of cities (traditional centers, edges, peripheries) and at different levels of the urban system (large and medium-sized cities and in their respective areas of influence). Possibly the clearest expression of the spatial effects on cities can be perceived in their morphological transformations, their territorial dimensions, or in their social problems. Until 2008, urban–territorial processes were a reflection of the logic and inconsistencies of an expansive economic context and of a structural context that favored the development of cities through concurrent processes and actors. As a result, the built land and amount of urbanized and built surfaces increased, together with processes of the expansion and modernization of cities. Since 2008, the expansive economic cycle has ended, and there have been diverse negative consequences. Notably, the construction sector has come to an abrupt halt. Access to credit has also been reduced, and unemployment has increased. The economic recession has caused sociodemographic and socioeconomic issues exemplified by housing vulnerability, with dispossession, evictions, a shortage of social housing, and energy poverty.
Download or read book Bioregional Planning and Design Volume II written by David Fanfani and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-22 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides insights and discusses the practical application of the theoretical concept of urban bioregion complementing the general bio-regional planning cross-disciplinary issues provided in Volume I. It examines planning practices, such as relocalisation of energy flows, land protection for climate change, territorial heritage enhancement, the consideration of urban ecosystems and agro-ecology. It presents discussions on regional contexts, practices and projects for a bioregional recovery, and includes case studies from France, Belgium, Spain, Greece, Austria and Italy, discussing topics that range from the reframing of local energy production/delivery planning systems to soil protection and farmland sustainable exploitation schemes. This volume concludes with three cross-European case studies that make clear the worldwide relevance and potential of bioregional approach beyond the Global North or Western countries.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 871 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Desde comienzos del siglo se han venido produciendo importantes cambios morfológicos y sociales en muchas ciudades. El proceso ha venido marcado por periodos bien diferenciados. La primera década ha dejado transformaciones intensas, en un contexto de crecimiento económico y de un marco normativo que ha reducido el protagonismo del sector público en favor de agentes privados en los nuevos desarrollos urbanos. En esos años ha crecido la construcción, las tipologías edificatorias se han modificado y la mancha urbana se ha ido extendiendo y en ocasiones alejando de los límites tradicionales de las ciudades, en los diferente niveles del sistema urbano. A partir del año 2008 los efectos de la crisis han dejado un escenario bien diferente, caracterizado por el freno brusco en la edificación y por la parálisis urbana. Ha sido un periodo de recesión en la que se han surgido muchos de los conflictos sociales derivados de las contradicciones de los años del urbanismo expansivo, en el que una parte importante de la población se ha visto afectada por sus efectos. Pero también ha sido un periodo de reflexión en el que se ha vuelto la mirada y el interés hacia el modelo de ciudad tradicional.
Download or read book The Second Tier of Local Government in Europe written by Hubert Heinelt and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-03-29 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes a comparative approach to local government across 14 European countries, looking at processes of decentralisation, regionalisation and reforms of local government. Examining second levels of government, such as UK Counties, French Départements, Italian and Spanish Provinces, and German Landkreise, this book reveals both the specific characteristics of particular countries, and also similarities across Europe. As the first book focussing on the second level of local governments, this monograph combines comparative analysis of institutional trends and reforms of local government with examination of country-specific features to provide an original and insightful evaluation of European governance. Organised along common thematic lines, leading experts in their field outline the historical development of local government, and analyse recent or current reform debates. The book argues democratic quality and effectiveness of this territorial level of government is in the focus of on-going debates about the rescaling of statehood and a shift from ‘government to governance’. The Second Tier of Local Government in Europe will be of interest to students and scholars studying local government, public administration and multi-level governance.
