Urban Biodiversity From Research to Practice

Urban Biodiversity From Research to Practice

Urban biodiversity is an increasingly popular topic among researchers. Worldwide thousands of research projects are unravelling how urbanisation impacts the biodiversity of cities and towns as well as its benefits for people and the environment through ecosystem services. Exciting scientific discoveries are made on a daily basis. However researchers often lack time and opportunity to communicate these findings to the community and those in charge of managing planning and designing for urban biodiversity. On the other hand urban practitioners frequently ask researchers for more comprehensible information and actionable tools to guide their actions. This book is designed to fill this cultural and communicative gap by discussing a selection of topics related to urban biodiversity as well as its benefits for people and the urban environment. It provides an interdisciplinary overview of scientifically grounded knowledge vital for current and future practitioners in charge of urban biodiversity management its conservation and integration into urban planning. Topics covered include pests and invasive species rewilding habitats the contribution of a diverse urban agriculture to food production implications for human well-being and how to engage the public with urban conservation strategies. For the first time world-leading researchers from five continents convene to offer a global interdisciplinary perspective on urban biodiversity narrated with a simple but rigorous language. This book synthesizes research at a level suitable for both students and professionals working in nature conservation and urban planning and management. | Urban Biodiversity From Research to Practice

Urban Planning’s Philosophical Entanglements The Rugged Dialectical Path from Knowledge to Action

Urban Planning’s Philosophical Entanglements The Rugged Dialectical Path from Knowledge to Action

Urban Planning’s Philosophical Entanglements explores the long-held idea that urban planning is the link in moving from knowledge to action. Observing that the knowledge domain of the planning profession is constantly expanding the approach is a deep philosophical analysis of what is the quality and character of understanding that urban planners need for expert engagement in urban planning episodes. This book philosophically analyses the problems in understanding the nature of action — both individual and social action. Included in the analysis are the philosophical concerns regarding space/place and the institution of private property. The final chapter extensively explores the linkage between knowledge and action. This emerges as the process of design in seeking better urban communities — design processes that go beyond buildings tools or fashions but are focused on bettering human urban relationships. Urban Planning’s Philosophical Entanglements provides rich analysis and understanding of the theory and history of planning and what it means for planning practitioners on the ground. | Urban Planning’s Philosophical Entanglements The Rugged Dialectical Path from Knowledge to Action

Urban Goods Movement A Guide to Policy and Planning

Urban Goods Movement A Guide to Policy and Planning

Freight transport is essential to modern urban civilization. No urban area could exist without a reliable freight transport system. Although the private sector is responsible for much of this system the public sector has a vital role to play in the provision of infrastructure and the establishment of a social and legal framework within which transport can occur. For these reasons goods movement deserves and is increasingly receiving explicit consideration in urban transport policy and planning. Many cities around the world have conducted studies aimed at resolving urban goods movement problems and a considerable if disparate body of research results are available. This book brings together much of this knowledge and experience in a comprehensive source of information on urban freight particularly from a public policy or planning viewpoint. It provides both a conceptual basis for urban goods movement analysis and detailed practical guidelines which may be used directly by those responsible for urban freight policy and planning. The author has worked for over twenty years in this field and he draws upon his experience in Australia the United States Great Britain Canada and The Philippines to produce a book which is international in scope and perspective. The book is written for practising professionals such as engineers economists and planners working in local government urban transport planning agencies highway authorities consultancies or research institutes; it is also relevant to graduate courses in transport planning traffic engineering or urban policy. It is of interest to all who have a concern for contemporary issues in urban development. | Urban Goods Movement A Guide to Policy and Planning

Urban Social Sustainability Theory Policy and Practice

Urban Social Sustainability Theory Policy and Practice

This ground breaking volume raises radical critiques and proposes innovative solutions for social sustainability in the built environment. Urban Social Sustainability provides an in-depth insight into the discourse and argues that every urban intervention has a social sustainability dimension that needs to be taken into consideration and incorporated into a comprehensive and cohesive ‘urban agenda’ that is built on three principles of recognition integration and monitoring. This should be achieved through a dialogical and reflexive process of decision-making. To achieve sustainable communities social sustainability should form the basis of a constructive dialogue and be interlinked with other areas of sustainable development. This book underlines the urgency of approaching social sustainability as an urban agenda and goes on to make suggestions about its formulation. Urban Social Sustainability consists of original contributions from academics and experts within the field and explores the significance of social sustainability from different perspectives. Areas covered include urban policy transportation and mobility urban space and architectural form housing urban heritage neighbourhood development and urban governance. Drawing on case studies from a number of countries and world regions the book presents a multifaceted and interdisciplinary understanding from social sustainability in urban settings and provides practitioners and policy makers with innovative recommendations to achieve more socially sustainable urban environment. | Urban Social Sustainability Theory Policy and Practice

The Social Impacts of Urban Containment

The Social Impacts of Urban Containment

One of the policies that has been most widely used to try to limit urban sprawl has been that of urban containment. These policies are planning controls limiting the growth of cities in an attempt to preserve open rural uses such as habitat agriculture and forestry in urban regions. While there has been a substantial amount of research into these urban containment policies most have focused on issues of land use consumption transportation impacts or economic development issues. This book examines the effects of urban containment policies on key social issues such as housing wealth building and creation racial segregation and gentrification. It argues that while the policies make important contributions to environmental sustainability they also affect affordability for all the economic groups of citizens aside from the most wealthy. However it also puts forward suggestions for revising such policies to counter these possible negative social impacts. As such it will be valuable reading for scholars of environmental planning social policy and regional development as well as for policy makers. | The Social Impacts of Urban Containment

Drama and Theatre in Urban Contexts

Drama and Theatre in Urban Contexts

Urban theatre can be described as theatre made with or by those whose lives are marked by the urban landscape and its social limits and possibilities. At the heart of this text lies the question of how theatre can illuminate the urban and how theatre is illuminated by the urban. The city like a play is a space where everything adopts multiple meanings. It is an objective thought and a subjective experience a charged and symbolic thing as well as a real material lived reality. The chapters in this book illustrate the theatre’s uncanny ability to narrate and symbolize the physical and psychic space of the city. Running through all of the pieces presented are the themes of power and of young people’s sense of agency within the structures they dwell in and are shaped by. Through drama education and applied theatre practices the affinity between the urban and its theatres is radically replaced by marginal spaces boulevards and schools. As Guillermo Gómez-Peña suggests the theatre has gone to the people to serve their local and immediate need for a means of holding the urban and the self so that both can be interrogated and re-imagined; so that the various dystopias of urban existence can be envisaged as places of urban solidarity and as utopias at least of the mind. This book was originally published as a special issue of Research in Drama Education: The Journal of Applied Theatre and Performance. | Drama and Theatre in Urban Contexts

Urban Politics Cities and Suburbs in a Global Age

Urban Politics Cities and Suburbs in a Global Age

Urban Politics blends the most insightful classic and current political science and related literature with current issues in urban affairs. The book’s integrative theme is ‘power ’ demonstrating that the study of urban politics requires an analysist to look beyond the formal institutions and procedures of local government. The book also develops important subthemes: the impact of globalization; the dominance of economic development over competing local policy concerns; the continuing importance of race in the urban arena; local government activism versus the ‘limits’ imposed on local action by the American constitutional system and economic competition; and the impact of national and state government action on cities. Urban Politics engages students with pragmatic case studies and boxed material that use classic and current urban films and TV shows to illustrate particular aspects of urban politics. The book’s substantial concluding discussion of local policies for environmental sustainability and green cities also appeals to today’s students. Each chapter has been thoroughly rewritten to clearly relate the content to current events and academic literature including the following: the importance of the intergovernmental city the role of local governments as active policy actors and vital policy makers even in areas outside traditional municipal policy concerns the prospects for urban policy and change in and beyond the Trump administration including the ways in which urban politics is affected by but not determined by Washington. Mixing classic theory and research on urban politics with the most recent developments and data in urban and metropolitan affairs Urban Politics 10e is an ideal introductory textbook for students of metropolitan and regional politics and policy. The book’s material on citizen participation urban bureaucracy policy analysis and intergovernmental relations also makes the volume an appropriate choice for Urban Administration courses.

Injustice in Urban Sustainability Ten Core Drivers

Injustice in Urban Sustainability Ten Core Drivers

This book uses a unique typology of ten core drivers of injustice to explore and question common assumptions around what urban sustainability means how it can be implemented and how it is manifested in or driven by urban interventions that hinge on claims of sustainability. Aligned with critical environmental justice studies the book highlights the contradictions of urban sustainability in relation to justice. It argues that urban neighbourhoods cannot be greener more sustainable and liveable unless their communities are strengthened by the protection of the right to housing public space infrastructure and healthy amenities. Linked to the individual drivers ten short empirical case studies from across Europe and North America provide a systematic analysis of research policy and practice conducted under urban sustainability agendas in cities such as Barcelona Glasgow Athens Boston and Montréal and show how social and environmental justice is or is not being taken into account. By doing so the book uncovers the risks of continuing urban sustainability agendas while ignoring and therefore perpetuating systemic drivers of inequity and injustice operating within and outside of the city. Accessibly written for students in urban studies critical geography and planning this is a useful and analytical synthesis of issues relating to urban sustainability environmental and social justice.

Urban Redevelopment A North American Reader

Urban Redevelopment A North American Reader

Urban redevelopment plays a major part in the growth strategy of the modern city and the goal of this book is to examine the various aspects of redevelopment its principles and practices in the North American context. Urban Redevelopment: A North American Reader seeks to shed light on the practice by looking at both its failures and successes ideas that seemed to work in specific circumstances but not in others. The book aims to provide guidance to academics practitioners and professionals on how when where and why specific approaches worked and when they didn’t. While one has to deal with each case specifically it is the interactions that are key. The contributors offer insight into how urban design affects behavior how finance drives architectural choices how social equity interacts with economic development how demographical diversity drives cities’ growth how politics determine land use decisions how management deals with market choices and how there are multiple influences and impacts of every decision. The book moves from the history of urban redevelopment The City Beautiful movement grand concourses and plazas through urban renewal superblocks and downtown pedestrian malls to today’s place-making: transit-oriented design street quieting new urbanism publicly accessible softer waterfront design funky small urban spaces and public-private megaprojects. This history also moves from grand masters such as Baron Haussmann and Robert Moses through community participation to stakeholder involvement to creative local leadership. The increased importance of sustainability high-energy performance resilience and both pre- and post-catastrophe planning are also discussed in detail. Cities are acts of man not nature; every street and building represents decisions made by people. Many of today’s best recognized urban theorists look for great forces; economic trends technological shifts political movements and try to analyze how they impact cities. One does not have to be a subscriber to the great man theory of history to see that in urban redevelopment successful project champions use or sometimes overcome overall trends using the tools and resources available to rebuild their community. This book is about how these projects are brought together each somewhat differently by the people who make them happen. | Urban Redevelopment A North American Reader

Informal Urban Street Markets International Perspectives

Informal Urban Street Markets International Perspectives

Through an international range of research this volume examines how informal urban street markets facilitate the informal and formal economy not merely in terms of the traditional concerns of labor and consumption but also in regards to cultural and spatial contingencies. In many places street markets and their populace have been marginalized and devalued. At times there are clear governance procedures that aim to prevent them yet they continue to emerge in even in the most institutionalized societies. This book gives serious consideration to what these markets reveal about urban life in a time of globalized rapid urbanization and flows of people knowledge and goods. | Informal Urban Street Markets International Perspectives

Urban Economy Real Estate Economics and Public Policy

Urban Economy Real Estate Economics and Public Policy

Urban Economy: Real Estate Economics and Public Policy analyses urban economic change and public policy in a more practical way than a typical urban economics book.

Green Gentrification Urban sustainability and the struggle for environmental justice

Green Gentrification Urban sustainability and the struggle for environmental justice

Green Gentrification looks at the social consequences of urban greening from an environmental justice and sustainable development perspective. Through a comparative examination of five cases of urban greening in Brooklyn New York it demonstrates that such initiatives while positive for the environment tend to increase inequality and thus undermine the social pillar of sustainable development. Although greening is ostensibly intended to improve environmental conditions in neighborhoods it generates green gentrification that pushes out the working-class and people of color and attracts white wealthier in-migrants. Simply put urban greening richens and whitens remaking the city for the sustainability class. Without equity-oriented public policy intervention urban greening is negatively redistributive in global cities. This book argues that environmental injustice outcomes are not inevitable. Early public policy interventions aimed at neighborhood stabilization can create more just sustainability outcomes. It highlights the negative social consequences of green growth coalition efforts to green the global city and suggests policy choices to address them. The book applies the lessons learned from green gentrification in Brooklyn to urban greening initiatives globally. It offers comparison with other greening global cities. This is a timely and original book for all those studying environmental justice urban planning environmental sociology and sustainable development as well as urban environmental activists city planners and policy makers interested in issues of urban greening and gentrification. | Green Gentrification Urban sustainability and the struggle for environmental justice

The Unequal City Urban Resurgence Displacement and the Making of Inequality in Global Cities

The Unequal City Urban Resurgence Displacement and the Making of Inequality in Global Cities

Cities around the world have seen: an increase in population and capital investments in land and building; a shift in central city populations as the poor are forced out; and a radical restructuring of urban space. The Unequal City tells the story of urban change and acts as a comprehensive guide to the Urban Now. A number of trends are examined including: the role of liquid capital; the resurgence of population; the construction of megaprojects and hosting of global megaevents; the role of the new rich; and the emergence of a new middle class. This book explores the reasons behind the displacement of the poor to the suburbs and beyond. Drawing upon case studies from around the world readers are exposed to an examination of the urban projects that involve the reuse of older industrial spaces the greening of the cities and the securitization of the public spaces. This book draws on political economy cultural and political analysis and urban geography approaches in order to consider the multifaceted nature of the process and its global unfolding. It will be essential reading to those interested in urban studies economic geography urban economics urban sociology urban planning and globalization. | The Unequal City Urban Resurgence Displacement and the Making of Inequality in Global Cities

Change and Stability in Urban Europe Form Quality and Governance

Change and Stability in Urban Europe Form Quality and Governance

This title was first published in 2001. Significant transformations in the spatial organization of European cities have taken place over the past two decades. Social fragmentation increasingly complex systems of governance the transformation of relations to public space and the shift of work from the industrial to the communications sectors have placed increasing importance on a city’s position in terms of the global network. This book brings together an interdisciplinary team of European experts to discuss how these transformations have forced a radical reconsideration of the traditional definitions of the city. Comparing a wide range of European cities the book highlights the diversity of urban forms and tackles the questions regarding the quality of life in new urban spaces. The result is a comprehensive and incisive examination of the capacity of urban policies to evoke real changes in the city and to regenerate the systems of urban governance. | Change and Stability in Urban Europe Form Quality and Governance
