Settlement Spaces: Urban Survival Prospects of China’s Special Communities: Empirical Study of Four Types of Representative Community Samples by Xiao Wu, Lingjin Wang
English | EPUB(True) | 2021 | 688 Pages | ISBN : 9811648913 | 115.1 MB

This book examines the settlement space of special communities in China on the community scale from an interdisciplinary approach that combines perspectives from urban planning and sociology. Using the framework of integration response, it theoretically and empirically explores the approaches these communities adopt to survive and evolve. Empirically, this discussion centers on four particular groups, namely international students, land-lost peasants, ethnic minorities, and migrant workers, and offers an analysis of their settlement spaces from different perspectives.

Innovation in Urban and Regional Planning: Proceedings of INPUT 2023 - Volume 1

Innovation in Urban and Regional Planning: Proceedings of INPUT 2023 - Volume 1 by Alessandro Marucci, Francesco Zullo, Lorena Fiorini, Lucia Saganeiti
English | PDF (True) | 2024 | 743 Pages | ISBN : 3031541170 | 88.6 MB

This book gathers the proceedings of the INPUT2023 Conference on ‘Innovation in Urban and Regional Planning.’ The 12th International Conference INPUT was held at the University of L'Aquila, Italy, on September 6–8, 2023, and brought together international scholars in the fields of planning, civil engineering and architecture, ecology, and social science, to strengthen the knowledge on nature-based solutions and to enhance the implementation and replication of these solutions in different contexts. The book represents the state of the art of modeling and computational approaches to innovations in urban and regional planning, with a transdisciplinary and borderless character to address the complexity of contemporary socio-ecological systems and following a practice-oriented and problem-solving approach. Computational tools, technologies, data, mathematical models, and decision support tools are explored for providing innovative spatial planning modeling methodologies.

Secondary Cities and Local Governance in Southern Africa

Secondary Cities and Local Governance in Southern Africa

Secondary Cities and Local Governance in Southern Africa by Abraham R. Matamanda, James Chakwizira, Kudzai Chatiza, Verna Nel
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2024 | 331 Pages | ISBN : 3031498569 | 39.8 MB

This book is the first to consider the roles, challenges and governance responses of secondary cities in southern Africa to changing circumstances. Among the challenges are governance under conditions of resource scarcity, managing informality, the effects and responses to climate change and the changing roles of the cities within the national space economy. It fills the gap in the literature on secondary cities with original case studies drawn from South Africa, Zimbabwe and Mozambique. The authors are all African scholars, working and living in the region with intimate knowledge of the settings they describe. The book is critical as it includes such regional case studies of different secondary cities in Southern Africa but also because of it’s multidisciplinarity: it contains substantive and pertinent issues such as climate change, disaster management, local economic development, and basic services delivery. It considers diverse environments, yet with similar challenges that could provide useful policy and governance proposals for other cities.

This book examines the settlement space of special communities in China on the community scale from an interdisciplinary approach that combines perspectives from urban planning and sociology. Using the framework of integration response, it theoretically and empirically explores the approaches these communities adopt to survive and evolve. Empirically, this discussion centers on four particular groups, namely international students, land-lost peasants, ethnic minorities, and migrant workers, and offers an analysis of their settlement spaces from different perspectives.
Theoretically, this study optimizes the logic of one-way integration as used in classical theories. By constructing a two-way linkage in the theoretical framework of integration response, it provides a multi-scenario interpretation and summary of the laws of survival and evolution that govern the urban settlements of special communities in China.

Design for Rethinking Resources: Proceedings of the UIA World Congress of Architects Copenhagen 2023 by Mette Ramsgaard Thomsen, Carlo Ratti, Martin Tamke
English | PDF (True) | 2023 (2024 Edition) | 718 Pages | ISBN : 3031365534 | 49.5 MB

The book provides new perspectives from leading researchers accentuating and examining the central role of the built environment in conceiving and implementing multifaceted solutions for the complex challenges of our understanding of planetary resources and circularity, revealing critical potentials for architecture and design to contribute in more informed and long-term ways to the urgent transition of our society. The book offers a compilation of peer-reviewed papers that uniquely connects knowledge broadly across practice and academia; from the newest technologies and methods such as the role of digital modelling, analysis, and fabrication in circular design, i.e. material passports, cyber-physical augmentation, and LCA to the potentials of growing and harvesting biomass materials, engaging waste streams in material production and more, all in context of economic, social, and ecological potentials and consequences.

English | EPUB (True) | 2023 | 487 Pages | ISBN : 3031369920 | 282.8 MB

Architecture has played a very important role in colonization of the society and the earth, and today we have the urgent task to crack the theory and practice of this same Architecture. We can achieve this only by working collectively towards reframing concepts that has been at the centre of a dominant universalist western knowledge creation.

The Topology of Planning Theories: A Systematization of Planning Knowledge

The Topology of Planning Theories: A Systematization of Planning Knowledge by Meike Levin-Keitel , Lukas Behrend
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 123 Pages | ISBN : 3031378563 | 7.1 MB

The book discusses and organizes planning theories in a new way. Building on a foundation in scientific theory, both planning practice and the planning sciences are thereby classified and their inherent importance is organized in terms of knowledge generation. The core of the book is a knowledge-oriented systematization of planning knowledge in the form of planning theories, the topology of planning theories. The target audience of this work are academic as well as practical users from diverse disciplines with spatial impact, such as spatial planning, urban planning, regional planning, landscape planning, geography, urban studies, architecture and landscape architecture.

Assembling Nusantara: Mimicry, Friction, and Resonance in the New Capital Development

Assembling Nusantara: Mimicry, Friction, and Resonance in the New Capital Development

Assembling Nusantara: Mimicry, Friction, and Resonance in the New Capital Development by Henny Warsilah, Lilis Mulyani, Ivan Kurniawan Nasution
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 289 Pages | ISBN : 9819935326 | 24.2 MB

Today, the new Indonesian capital city, Nusantara, planning is being anticipated as “representing national identity,” “a model city,” or “a gift to the world,” and many other extraordinary labels. This book examines the reality of an ongoing developmental transformation of the Nusantara beyond those labels. It approaches its assemblage of humans, their works (plans, documents, policies, and others), non-human objects (biodiversity, landscape, geography, physical infrastructure, buildings, and public spaces), processes, social relationships, social infrastructures, and others. It is organized into three themes—mimicry, friction, and resonance. The mimicry illustrates the similarities (and differences) between Nusantara and other capital cities in urban narratives, imageries, and forms. The friction studies how Nusantara moves actors who do not always agree, processes that do not always align or collaboration between diverse contradicting groups that intersect.

English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 187 Pages | ISBN : 3031338936 | 71.2 MB

This book builds a framework that holds together numerous open issues in territorial planning: from the understanding of territorial, landscape, environmental and climatic dynamics to the analysis of local vulnerabilities, to the use of modern survey techniques to support planning. What is the role of urban and regional planning in achieving the sustainable development goals of our communities considering the major issues posed by the COVID-19 pandemic in urban planning? And how do these medium- and long-term objectives interact with the needs that the emergency has given rise to?
