The Routledge Companion to Urban Media and Communication

The Routledge Companion to Urban Media and Communication

The Routledge Companion to Urban Media and Communication traces central debates within the burgeoning interdisciplinary research on mediated cities and urban communication. The volume brings together diverse perspectives and global case studies to map key areas of research within media cultural and urban studies where a joint focus on communications and cities has made important innovations in how we understand urban space technology identity and community. Exploring the rise and growing complexity of urban media and communication as the next key theme for both urban and media studies the book gathers and reviews fast-developing knowledge on specific emergent phenomena such as: reading the city as symbol and text; understanding urban infrastructures as media (and vice-versa); the rise of global cities; urban and suburban media cultures: newspapers cinema radio television and the mobile phone; changing spaces and practices of urban consumption; the mediation of the neighbourhood community and diaspora; the centrality of culture to urban regeneration; communicative responses to urban crises such as racism poverty and pollution; the role of street art in the negotiation of ‘the right to the city’; city competition and urban branding; outdoor advertising; moving image architecture; ‘smart’/cyber urbanism; the emergence of Media City production spaces and clusters. Charting key debates and neglected connections between cities and media this book challenges what we know about contemporary urban living and introduces innovative frameworks for understanding cities media and their futures. As such it will be an essential resource for students and scholars of media and communication studies urban communication urban sociology urban planning and design architecture visual cultures urban geography art history politics cultural studies anthropology and cultural policy studies as well as those working with governmental agencies cultural foundations and institutes and policy think tanks.

Urban Life in Nordic Countries

Urban Life in Nordic Countries

Based on empirical studies this book investigates the particular urban history of the North from the 17th century until today in a comparative Northern perspective. Urban Life in Nordic Countries is the result of a conference on Urbanity in the Periphery held in Stockholm on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the Institute of Urban History at Stockholm University aimed at establishing the field of the urban history of the North and creating a network of urban historians of the North. With a broad range of contributions from Sweden Finland Denmark Norway and Estonia the volume seeks to further discourse on the region within national and transnational lenses and to highlight possibilities for new cooperation among researchers. Urban history is a transdisciplinary subject engaging not only historians but also ethnologists sociologists urban planners and cultural geographers and this book targets all scholars whose work requires a historical understanding of the Northern town. European urban historians outside the region will also find this text valuable as one of the few studies to consider the urban history of the continent from a North-centered viewpoint.

Temporal Urban Design Temporality Rhythm and Place

Temporal Urban Design Temporality Rhythm and Place

Temporal Urban Design: Temporality Rhythm and Place examines an alternative design approach focusing on the temporal aesthetics of urban places and the importance of the sense of time and rhythm in the urban environment. The book departs from concerns on the acceleration of cities its impact on the urban quality of life and the liveability of urban spaces and questions on what influences the sense of time and how it expresses itself in the urban environment. From here it poses the questions: what time is this place and how do we design for it? It offers a new aesthetic perspective akin to music brings forward the methodological framework of urban place-rhythmanalysis and explores principles and modes of practice towards better temporal design quality in our cities. The book demonstrates that notions of time have long been intrinsic to planning and urban design research agendas and whilst learning from philosophy urban critical theory and both the natural and social sciences debate on time it argues for a shift in perspective towards the design of everyday urban time and place timescapes. Overall the book explores the value of the everyday sense of time and rhythmicity in the urban environment and discusses how urban designers can understand analyse and ultimately play a role in the creation of temporally unique both sensorial and affective places in the city. The book will be of interest to urban planners designers landscape architects and architects as well as urban geographers and all those researching within these disciplines. It will also interest students of planning urban design architecture urban studies and of urban planning and design theory. | Temporal Urban Design Temporality Rhythm and Place

Changing Asian Urban Geographies Urbanism and Peripheral Areas

Changing Asian Urban Geographies Urbanism and Peripheral Areas

This book investigates changing geographies of fast growing Asian metropolitan regions in particular their peripheral areas. Through examining the intersection of global suburbanisation and Asian urbanism the book depicts a complex (sub)urban world in Asia. It explains how the forces of globalisation the logic of capital accumulation and the history of rural-urban divide and interaction path-dependent local institutions and government policies work together to reshape the geographies of Asian urbanism. Touching on social environmental governance and planning aspects of contemporary urban Asia the chapters in this volume provide grounded studies of residential relocation and changing rural settlements property development by a congregation of developers political ecologies of water provision middle-class consumers and local state agencies transit-oriented development and infrastructure finance in peri-urban areas. It demonstrates an assemblage of actors and coexistence of multiple urban governance regimes with everyday negotiations. Changing Asian Urban Geographies will be interesting not only to those who wish to know more about Asian urban geographies but also to scholars and students wishing to see Asian metropolises in a comparative perspective of (sub)urban dynamics.

Worker Mobility and Urban Policy in Latin America Policy Interactions and Urban Outcomes in Mexico City

Worker Mobility and Urban Policy in Latin America Policy Interactions and Urban Outcomes in Mexico City

This book argues that urban outcomes are better understood as the result of the interactions between policies from distinct policy domains rather than from any single policy silo. In doing so the book develops and applies the Policy Interactions Framework to the study of the mobility experience of workers in Greater Mexico City. Four empirical studies provide the reader with a comprehensive view of how urban policies can sometimes interact at cross-purposes to produce inequitable urban outcomes. The chapters analyze time and distance in the journey to work to quantify and map commuting inequalities assess the shift in the spatial location of the demand for labor between 1999 and 2019 examine the default housing pathways available for workers and evaluate the spatial distribution of public and common mobility resources. An outcome of applying the Policy Interactions Framework to the study of workers’ mobility is to put forward the choiceless mobility hypothesis: a process by which the interaction between the spatial location of the demand for labor the housing pathways available for workers and the political economy of public transport operates to produce geographies of low accessibility to jobs. The audience of this book consists of scholars and practitioners in the field of urban policy analysis urban development and urban political economy in the Global South. | Worker Mobility and Urban Policy in Latin America Policy Interactions and Urban Outcomes in Mexico City

Sverre Fehn and the City: Rethinking Architecture’s Urban Premises

Sverre Fehn and the City: Rethinking Architecture’s Urban Premises

The urban attentions of Pritzker Laureate Sverre Fehn (1924–2009) are extensive but as yet virtually unexplored. This book examines ten select projects to illuminate Fehn’s approach to the city the embodiment of that thinking in his designs and the broader lessons those efforts offer for better understanding the relationship between architecture and urban life with unignorable implications for emergent urban architecture and its address of sociological and ecological crises. Wary of large-scale planning proposals or the erasure of existing urban patterns Fehn offered an uncommon and profoundly vibrant approach to urbanism at the scale of the single architectural project. His writings constructed buildings competition entries and lectures suggest opportunities for reinvigorating architecture’s engagement with the city and provoke a rethinking of concepts foundational to its theorization. What is the nature of urbanity? What is the relationship of urbanity to the natural world? What is the role of architecture in the provision and sustenance of urban life? While exploring this territory will expand our knowledge of an architect central to key developments of late modernism the range of the book and the arguments developed therein delineate far broader aims: a fuller understanding of architecture’s urban promise. | Sverre Fehn and the City: Rethinking Architecture’s Urban Premises

Financing Urban Government in the Welfare State

Financing Urban Government in the Welfare State

First Published in 1980 Financing Urban Government in the Welfare State shows how intergovernmental structures have now become the main policy device designed for an earlier age and often for quite different purposes linking national and local policymaking. Special attention is given to the historical structures which now form the basis for national - local spending and investment decisions and which moderate the increasing interdependence of national and local decisions. The so called ‘crisis’ of urban spending has not emerged as a major problem but each country has sought to modify and adapt old bargaining procedures to the new needs and problems of local government. The manner in which this has been done reflects crucially important aspects of the political process in each country- Britain France the United States Germany and the Netherlands and does not follow the lines that might be suggested by economic deterministic thinking. Essentially each country must work out its historical and institutional compromise between the financial problems of national and local government with politics continuing to have an important explanatory role in understanding contemporary urban development. This is an interesting read for scholars and researchers of urban studies urban politics and public policy

English Urban Commons The Past Present and Future of Green Spaces

English Urban Commons The Past Present and Future of Green Spaces

This book presents a novel examination of urban commons which provides a robust base for education initiatives and future public policy guidance on the protection and use of urban commons as invaluable urban green spaces that offer a diverse cultural and ecological resource for future communities. This book's central argument is that only through a deep understanding of the past and a rigorous engagement with present users can we devise new futures or imaginaries of culture well-being and diversity for the urban commons. It argues that understanding the genesis of and interactions between the different pressures on urban green space has important policy implications for the delivery of nature conservation recreational access and other land use priorities. The stakeholders in today’s urban commons whether land users policy makers or the public are the inheritors of a complex cultural legacy and must negotiate diverse and sometimes conflicting objectives in their pursuit of a potentially unifying goal: a secure future for our urban commons. This book offers a unique and strongly interdisciplinary study of urban commons one that brings together original historical investigation contemporary legal scholarship extensive oral history research with user groups and research examining the imagined futures for the urban common in modern society. It explores the complex social and political history of the urban common as well as its legal and cultural status today using four diverse case studies from within England as exemplars of the distinctively urban common. These are Town Moor in Newcastle Mousehold Heath in Norwich Clifton and Durdham Downs in Bristol and Valley Gardens in Brighton. This book concludes by looking forward and considering new tools and methods of negotiation inclusivity and creativity to inform the future of these case studies and of urban commons more widely. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of the commons green spaces urban planning environmental and urban geography environmental studies and natural resource management.

Barista in the City Subcultural Lives Paid Employment and the Urban Context

Barista in the City Subcultural Lives Paid Employment and the Urban Context

Barista in the City examines the impact of paid employment and the contemporary neoliberal context on the subcultural lives of hipsters who are employed as baristas. This book’s analysis of Philadelphia baristas employed within specialty coffee shops suggests that the existing literature on the relationship between neoliberalism and urban subcultures needs to be amended. The subcultural participants discussed within previous studies lived intensely subcultural lives that were ultimately diminished due to processes of gentrification and displacement. The subcultural lives of the baristas investigated by the authors were greatly diminished from the very beginning. Neoliberal policies and structures of class race gender and gentrification intersected with their employment in ways that diminished their ability to establish lives that constitute a full-fledged subcultural alternative. The book presents a new theoretical perspective that could aid researchers who study urban subcultures. It also discusses the implications of its analysis for urban policy. This book is an essential update on previous scholarship pertaining to urban subcultures. It also contributes to existing literatures on baristas hipsters gentrification and service sector employment within the city. It is suitable for students and scholars in Urban Sociology Urban Studies Cultural Studies and the Sociology of Work. | Barista in the City Subcultural Lives Paid Employment and the Urban Context

Informality through Sustainability Urban Informality Now

Informality through Sustainability Urban Informality Now

Informality through Sustainability explores the phenomenon of informality within urban settlements and aims to unravel the subtle links between informal settlements and sustainability. Penetrating its global profile and considering urban informality through an understanding of local implications the authors collectively reveal specific correlations between sites and their local inhabitants. The book opposes simplistic calls to legalise informal settlements or to view them as ‘problems’ to be solved. It comes at a time when common notions of ‘informality’ are being increasingly challenged. In 25 chapters the book presents contributions from well-known scholars and practitioners whose theoretical or practical work addresses informality and sustainability at various levels from city planning and urban design to public space and architectural education. Whilst previous studies on informal settlements have mainly focused on cases in developing countries approaching the topic through social cultural and material dimensions the book explores the concept across a range of contexts including former Communist countries and those in the so-called Global North. Contributions also explore understandings of informality at various scalar levels – region precinct neighbourhood and individual building. Thus this work helps reposition informality as a relational concept at various scales of urbanisation. This book will be of great benefit to planners architects researchers and policymakers interested in the interplay between informality and sustainability. | Informality through Sustainability Urban Informality Now

Globalization Urban Progress Urban Problems Rural Disadvantages Evidence from Mozambique

This title was first published in 2000: This text demonstrates the mutual effects of and interconnections between globalization urbanization and rural stagnation both theoretically and empirically. It places its comprehensive empirical investigation on two levels of urbanization - the peri-urban and the fully urbanized areas - and includes the analysis of the rural conditions into the context of the Southern African region and also into the context of global processes in an historical and interdisciplinary perspective. The text analyzes the magnitude of the two gaps and the process of social change between the three areas objectively by showing the changing social interaction patterns the differences in housing and other socio-economic variables and subjectively through showing the judgement of the people of these variables the degree of satisfaction and depression. As the majority of variables reveal poverty the root causes for it in Mozambique Africa and the Third World are analyzed and aspects of an alternative development and an alternative globalization are presented. | Globalization Urban Progress Urban Problems Rural Disadvantages Evidence from Mozambique

Urban Planning During Socialism Views from the Periphery

Urban Planning During Socialism Views from the Periphery

Urban Planning During Socialism delves into the evolution of cities during the period of state socialism of the 20th century summarizing the urban and architectural studies that trace their transformations. The book focuses primarily on the periphery of the socialist world both spatially and in terms of scholarly thinking. The case study cities presented in this book draw on cultural and material studies to demonstrate diverse and novel concepts of ‘periphery’ through transformations of socialist cityscapes rather than homogenous views on cities during the period of state socialism of the 20th century. In doing so the book explores the transversalities of political economic and social phenomena; the places for everyday life in socialist cities; the role of professional communities on production and reproduction of space and ecological thinking. This book is aimed at scholarly readership in particular scholars in architecture urban planning and human geography as well as undergraduate graduate and post-graduate students in these disciplines studying the urban transformation of cities after World War II in socialist countries. It will also be of interest for planning officials architects policymakers and activists in former socialist countries. | Urban Planning During Socialism Views from the Periphery

Urban Expansion and Food Security in New Zealand The Collapse of Local Horticulture

Urban Expansion and Food Security in New Zealand The Collapse of Local Horticulture

This book examines suburban development in New Zealand and its conflict with and impact on local horticulture and food security. Drawing on an ethnographic study of Auckland’s rapidly expanding urban periphery combined with comparative case studies from California in the USA and Victoria in Australia the book examines how the profit-making strategies of property developers and landowners drastically reshapes work and life at the edge of cities. With a significant portion of the world's croplands lying adjacent to cities the accelerating pace of urban sprawl across the planet places unprecedented pressure on the productivity and even existence of these vital food bowl regions. The book examines how the demand for more land for development at the urban periphery collides with concerns over local food security and the protection of ecosystem services. It analyses land use policy historical records and physical patterns of development alongside participant observation of local events. It combines this with interviews with government officials property developers landowners local residents and horticulturists. By combining these narratives of the hectic and lucrative business of suburban property development with the collapse of local horticulture this book shows how the realignment of the New Zealand's interests of financial profitability over other concerns led to the transformation of urban peripheries from a productive food bowl to an investment vehicle. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of urban food and agriculture urban planning and development and rural-urban studies. | Urban Expansion and Food Security in New Zealand The Collapse of Local Horticulture

The Rural-Urban Nexus in India's Economic Transformation

The Rural-Urban Nexus in India's Economic Transformation

This book describes and analyzes the transformation of Indian economy taking into account historical changes and present dynamics of the rural-urban nexus. India has recently experienced a period as a high-performing economy with the great improvement of indices of human development including literacy rates life expectancy child mortality rates and others. In contrast to this bright outlook features such as the retarded growth of women’s average height the noticeable gap between male and female population the overwhelming proportion of informal employment in the manufacturing sector or increasing pollution overshadow India’s future in some cases pose a threat to lifestyle and environment. Examining the rural–urban nexus where the new transformative dynamics of Indian socio-economy is most conspicuous the contributors to this book shed light on the actual changes taking place at the bottom of Indian society through regional comparisons and spatial differentiation. The book offers unique perspectives on the topic produced mostly by Japanese scholars including analysis of original data that have hitherto been unavailable and inaccessible to an international audience. As the first book published on the rural–urban nexus in India this book will be of interest to researchers studying South Asian History Economics Politics Geography Sociology and Anthropology Development Studies and Economic History. | The Rural-Urban Nexus in India's Economic Transformation
