 Non-Plan: Essays on Freedom, Participation and Change in Modern Architecture and Urbanism【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Non-Plan explores ways of involving people in the design of their environments - a goal which transgresses political categories of 'right' and 'left'. Attempts to circumvent planning bureaucracy and architectural inertia have ranged from free-market enterprise zones, to self-build housing, and from squatting to sophisticated technologies of prefabrication. Yet all have shared in a desire to let people shape the built environment they want to live and work in. How can buildings better reflect the needs of their inhabitants? How can cities better facilitate the work and recreation of their many populaces? Modernism had promised a functionalist approach to resolving the architectural needs of the twentieth-century, yet the design of cities and buildings often appears to confound the needs of those who use them - their design and layout being highly regulated by restrictive legislation, planning controls and bureaucracy. Non-Plan considers the theoretical and conceptual frameworks within which architecture and urbanism have sought to challenge entrenched boundaries of control, focusing on the architectural history of the post-war period to the present day. This provocative book will be of interest to architects, planners and students of architecture, design, town-planning and architectural history. Its contributors include architects, critics and historians, including many whose work helped shape the Non-Plan debate during the period. List of contributors: Cedric Price, Benjamin Franks, Elizabeth Lebas, Eleonore Kofman, Ben Highmore, Yona Friedman, Paul Barker, Clara Greed, Barry Curtis, Colin Ward, Ian Horton, John Beck, Chinedu Umenyilora and Malcolm Miles.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 12,436円 |
 Recycling Infrastructures in Cambodia Circularity, Waste, and Urban Life in Phnom Penh【電子書籍】[ Kathrin Eitel ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book examines the recycling infrastructure in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. It considers the circular flows of waste and practices through ‘infracycles’, maintenance practices that tinker with the social and capitalist order, and postcolonial ways of doing politics that co-constitute predominant waste fantasies from which naturecultures ooze out, shaping urban life in their own way.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In this context, socially marginalized waste pickers contest the capitalist system by creating tropes about freedom, labor autonomy, and the will to survive. In this regard, they are also meddling about a new social order that represents the fine line Cambodia is sashaying between tradition and modernity. Waste fantasies that are a result of environmental problematizations, however, perpetuate postcolonial ways of doing politics by exuding notions of waste as detached from its sociocultural context. But ultimately, waste slips through the cracks of these dominant imaginaries and global waste reduction models enacting new versions of what waste and the city is, providing opportunities for another future waste policy.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book is a unique contribution to the field of infrastructure studies emphasizing the importance of perceiving infrastructure as circular in smaller ‘infracycles’, rather than linear. It will be of interest to researchers in the field of environmental anthropology, science and technology studies, urban studies, and Southeast Asian studies.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The Introduction of this book is available for free in PDF format as Open Access from the individual product page at www.routledge.com.

 The Elevator Exploring social dynamics and urban struggles in 19th-century America【電子書籍】[ William Dean Howells ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞William Dean Howells'?? novella, "The Elevator," weaves a subtle yet haunting narrative that explores the tensions of human interaction and social class within the constrictive settings of a burgeoning urban landscape. Through minimalistic prose and a keen psychological lens, Howells delves into the ominous atmosphere of an elevator ride, symbolizing both physical and metaphorical ascent and descent in society. The text reflects the naturalistic style prevalent in late 19th-century American literature, where the interplay between environment and character shapes the human experience, provoking questions about individual agency in the face of societal judgments. Howells, often referred to as the "Dean of American Letters," was a leading figure in the movement toward realism, driven by an unwavering commitment to depicting the life of everyday Americans. His personal experiences in both physically and socially diverse urban settings, along with his deep acquaintance with literary circles, undoubtedly influenced his perspective on class issues and the intricacies of human relationships, which are deftly portrayed in "The Elevator." This novella is a compelling read for those interested in the intersections of realism and social critique in American literature. Howells'?? masterful rendering invites readers to reflect on their own societal positions, making it a work that resonates deeply with contemporary themes of isolation and connection.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 150円 |
 Ghetto Tragedies Immigrant Struggles and Urban Resilience in Ghetto Tales【電子書籍】[ Israel Zangwill ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In "Ghetto Tragedies," Israel Zangwill masterfully explores the lives of Jewish immigrants in the impoverished neighborhoods of early 20th-century London, delving into the poignant struggles of identity, assimilation, and the quest for dignity. Through a series of compelling narratives, Zangwill captures the raw human experience with vivid realism and a touch of lyrical beauty, reflecting the socio-political zeitgeist of the era. His work stands as a crucial document of the Jewish experience, employing naturalism and emotional depth to highlight the harsh realities faced by those residing in the ghettoes while also exploring themes of hope and resilience amidst adversity. Israel Zangwill, a prominent figure in the Jewish literary world, was born into a Jewish community that grappled with the challenges of modernity and displacement. His own experiences as an immigrant shaped his perspectives, leading him to become an advocate for social justice and Jewish rights. Zangwill'??s multifaceted literary career, which includes plays, novels, and essays, underscores his commitment to portraying the complexities of Jewish life, making "Ghetto Tragedies" an essential addition to his oeuvre. Readers who seek a deeper understanding of the immigrant experience and the socio-cultural dynamics of early 20th-century urban life will find "Ghetto Tragedies" both enlightening and moving. Zangwill'??s powerful storytelling and nuanced characterizations provide a rich tapestry that resonates with contemporary discussions of multiculturalism and identity, inviting readers to reflect on their own place within the broader human narrative.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 150円 |

 Sex and the Revitalized City Gender, Condominium Development, and Urban Citizenship【電子書籍】[ Leslie Kern ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Young, single women emerged in the late 1990s as powerful consumers in the wave of real estate development that was reshaping the landscape of cities. Reports claimed that condominium ownership offered women new-found freedom, financial independence, and personal security. But has home ownership truly empowered women, or were the reports merely celebratory rhetoric that disguised more disquieting trends?＜/p＞ ＜p＞To get at the reality behind the rhetoric, ＜em＞Sex and the Revitalized City＜/em＞ explores the phenomenon from the perspective of planners, developers, and women condo owners to reveal that women’s relationship with the city is being remade in the image of fast capital and consumer citizenship. As filtered through condominium ownership, neoliberal ideologies are not freeing women from constraints ? they are reinforcing patriarchal norms. This fresh look at urban revitalization exposes the notion of women’s emancipation through condominium ownership as a marketing ploy rather than a major shift in gender relations.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 4,644円 |
 New York's New Edge Contemporary Art, the High Line, and Urban Megaprojects on the Far West Side【電子書籍】[ David Halle ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The story of New York’s west side no longer stars the Sharks and the Jets. Instead it’s a story of urban transformation, cultural shifts, and an expanding contemporary art scene.

 Narrowing the Achievement Gap in a (Re) Segregated Urban School District Research, Policy and Practice【電子書籍】[ Vivian W. Ikpa ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The interplay between sociopolitical forces and economic agendas becomes apparent when one examines the June 28, 2007 United States Supreme Court Decision, Parents Involved In Community Schools v. Seattle School District . In a reversal of the 1954 Brown Decision, the United States Supreme Court ruled that public schools could not use race as a factor when assigning children to public schools. Given demographic shifts, globalization, economic instability, and ideological shifts, the reversal was expected. However, it is essential that policymakers, educators, and other stakeholders consider the impact of attending segregated schools on the achievement gap that continues to exist between minority groups and European Americans attending resegregated neighborhood schools.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book will focus on the test score gaps between African American and European American students. The achievement gaps between these two groups will be analyzed will be presented and elaborated. Additionally, the authors will analyze how changes in school characteristics such as: racial composition; school composition; school expenditures, and socio economic level of neighborhoods affect achievement gap trends in the Norfolk School District. An examination of the achievement gap trends in an urban school district will serve to better inform public policy and school reform efforts.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The specific goals of this book are to describe the achievement gap between minority African-American students and European-American students in the Norfolk school district and to present strategies utilized by urban districts to narrow the gap. One unique feature of this book is that it provides a data-driven research-based analysis of the achievement gap between minority and European-American students.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 7,164円 |
 Priorities of the Professoriate Engaging Multiple Forms of Scholarship Across Rural and Urban Institutions【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Established in 2006, the American Association of Blacks in Higher Education (AABHE), formerly constituted as the Black Caucus (American Association of Higher Education), has been the consistent voice of Black issues in academe.

 Intersectionality and Urban Education Identities, Policies, Spaces & Power【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In urban education, “urban” is a floating signifier that is imbued with meaning, positive or negative by its users. “Urban” can be used to refer to both the geographical context of a city and a sense of “less than,” most often in relation to race and/or socioeconomic status (Watson, 2011). For Noblit and Pink (2007), “Urban, rather, is a generalization as much about geography as it is about the idea that urban centers have problems: problems of too many people, too much poverty, too much crime and violence, and ultimately, too little hope” (p. xv). Recently, urban education scholars such as Anyon (2005), Pink and Noblit (2007), Blanchett, Klinger and Harry (2009), and Lipman (2013) have elucidated the social construction of oppression and privilege for urban students, teachers, schools, families, and communities using intersectionality theories. Building on their work, we see the need for an edited collection that would look across the different realms of urban educationーtheorizing identity markers in urban education, education in urban schools and communities, thinking intersectionally in teacher education & higher education, educational policies & urban spacesーseeking to better understand each topic using an intersectional lens. Such a collection might serve to conceptually frame or provide methodological tools, or act as a reference point for scholars and educators who are trying to address urban educational issues in light of identities and power. Secondly, we argue that education questions and/or problems beg to be conceptualized and analyzed through more than one identity axis. Policies and practices that do not take into account urban students’ intertwining identity markers risk reproducing patterns of privilege and oppression, perpetuating stereotypes, and failing at the task we care most deeply about: supporting all students’ learning across a holistic range of academic, personal, and justice-oriented outcomes.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Can educational policies and practices address the social justice issues faced in urban schools and communities today? We argue that doing intersectional research and implementing educational policies and practices guided by these frameworks can help improve the “fit.” Particular attention needs to be paid to intersectionality as a lens for educational theory, policy, and practice. As urban educators we would be wise to consider the intertwining of these identity axes in order to better analyze educational issues and engage in teaching, learning, research, and policymaking that are better-tuned to the needs of diverse students, families, and communities.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 8,093円 |
 Learning from Disasters to Enhance Resilience of Urban Complex Systems Stress Testing Cities and Urban Plans for Resilience【電子書籍】[ Anna Faiella ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book presents research which gets shaped around three main pillars: Damage and Loss Data, Spatial Planning and Resilience Management. It considers Spatial Planning as key for risk reduction, prevention and climate change adaptation and highlights how post-disaster evidence-based knowledge allows for identifying priorities to mitigate and adapt to existing and future risks. While integrating Resilience Management, this book proposes a methodology to support a proactive Spatial Planning, which by itself can act as an ex-ante mitigation measure. The methodology entails an operational procedure to evaluate resilience in areas exposed to hazardous events after performing stress testing, making use of spatial, quantitative and qualitative data. The methodology has been applied to the case study of Benidorm City (Spain): a model of urbanisation exposed to multi-hazards and characterised by social and institutional vulnerability. By stressing the system under consideration, resilience is framed within the Resilience Matrix to highlight critical areas on which it is necessary to act to boost resilience and to highlight the capacity of the system to respond/withstand and react in case of disruptions.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 6,076円 |

 Generative AI-Powered Urban Digital Twins Pioneering Environmental Solutions for Sustainable Intelligent Cities【電子書籍】[ Ali Cheshmehzangi ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book presents a bold reimagining of urban futures through the convergence of generative artificial intelligence and digital twin technologies. This book presents AI-powered digital twins as catalysts for systemic change, civic empowerment, and environmental regeneration rather than just as planning tools at a time when cities are dealing with growing climate stresses, infrastructure stress, and profound social inequality. This book explores the development of urban digital twins from data-driven models to intelligent, adaptive systems that learn, simulate, and co-design with their urban settings. It does this via eleven technically sound and conceptually rich chapters. It investigates how generative AI may improve climate simulation, manage floods, lessen urban heat, lower emissions, and promote participatory planning, all while posing important ethical, equitable, and governance issues. This book covers open data standards, AI-twin integration architectures, and the difficulties of implementing prototypes into citywide systems, moving from fundamental theory to state-of-the-art practice. It demonstrates how these technologies can be used to depict community-driven urban scenarios, model circular material flows, and build green roofs. Throughout, this book maintains that cities’ ability to restore ecosystems, incorporate a variety of viewpoints, and envision resilient and just futures are what truly define intelligence, not efficiency alone. This book promotes a new urban paradigm where ethics are ingrained, intelligence is dispersed, and regeneration becomes the design axiom. It does this while keeping a close eye on both potential and responsibility. This book provides scholars, planners, technologists, and policymakers with a visionary yet doable road map for creating cities that are not just intelligentーbut profoundly aliveーby drawing on real-world examples, speculative design theory, and systems thinking. This is not a book about managing cities more efficiently. It is a book about reconsidering the basic concept of urban intelligence and co-creating the urban futures filled with care, courage, and collective imagination.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 12,154円 |
 Vacant Land Urban Design, Economic Expansion, and Environmental Consequences【電子書籍】[ Luca Salvati ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book sheds light on the mechanisms at the base of formation and consolidation of vacant land in metropolitan regions, an under-debated issue of urban growth, regional science and architecture. The book adopts a kaleidoscope of different academic and practical approaches, mixing multiple perspectives that combine architectural and urban planning disciplines with more specifically economic, social and environmental aspects of the urban landscape. The book adopts a multi-disciplinary frame with the aim at reading the complexity of mechanisms and processes underlying urban growth and the formation of vacant land. Vacant land was investigated from three perspectives- architectural/design, economic/social and planning/environmental. The multiple reading frames in the book highlights further academic debate on a particularly intriguing - while less investigated - topic.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 6,076円 |
 Tech-Enabled Urbanism and Entrepreneurship for Inclusive Cities【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book reframes smart city development by moving beyond efficiency-driven models to prioritize equity, inclusion, and democratic participation. It examines how digital technologiesーAI, IoT, and participatory platformsーcan serve as catalysts for social justice and entrepreneurial innovation when designed with communities at their core. The volume challenges prevailing paradigms that emphasize data-driven control and infrastructural speed over access, representation, and human well-being. By positioning technological advancement, entrepreneurial practice, and social inclusion as mutually reinforcing imperatives, the book offers actionable pathways toward cities that are not only smart but also socially just and human-centered.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 21,878円 |

 'City of the Future' Built Space, Modernity and Urban Change in Astana【電子書籍】[ Mateusz Laszczkowski ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Astana, the capital city of the post-Soviet Kazakhstan, has often been admired for the design and planning of its futuristic cityscape. This anthropological study of the development of the city focuses on every-day practices, official ideologies and representations alongside the memories and dreams of the city’s longstanding residents and recent migrants. Critically examining a range of approaches to place and space in anthropology, geography and other disciplines, the book argues for an understanding of space as inextricably material-and-imaginary, and unceasingly dynamic ? allowing for a plurality of incompatible pasts and futures materialized in spatial form.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 3,517円 |

 Conflict and Correspondence Belonging and Urban Community in Guadalajara, Mexico, 1939?1947【電子書籍】[ Jason H. Dormady ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In the decades following the 1910 Mexican Revolution, Guadalajara faced immense demographic and economic transformation, stunning both longtime residents and new arrivals. The city’s population nearly tripled from 1920 to 1950, and the resultant population boom strained government resources and challenged living standards for all.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In ＜em＞Conflict and Correspondence＜/em＞ Jason H. Dormady examines the critical transition period when Guadalajara lost control of urban growth after 1939 and when the newly empowered state and federal governments began to exercise immense control over the development of the city in 1947. As the city changed around them, residents used petitions and letters to municipal officials to help address their feelings of alienation, isolation, and separation from the community around them. Petitions took the form of sensate, moral, recreational, spiritual, and gendered arguments about creating livable communities and avoiding the disorientation experienced by urban transformation. In the context of infrastructure failures, tight housing markets, and a dramatic aesthetic transition, petitions on these topics reinforced to residentsーand, they hoped, city officialsーtheir belonging to the community. Resident petitions reveal how everyday people lived the consequences of the 1910 revolution as they advocated for shaping space and building place in midcentury Guadalajara.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 3,980円 |
 Migrations, development and urbanization policies in Sub-Saharan Africa【電子書籍】[ T.O. FADAYOMI ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Throughout history, African people have traversed their continent. Why do people leave their place of birth and what do they seek? More importantly, what happens to the places they go to when they are joined by many others? With the colonialists' exploitation of raw materials and search for outlets for manufactured goods, new centres of production and communication were created destroying traditional economies in their wake. The subsequent rural exodus has had a vast impact on the economic potential of Africa. Aging populations and decreased productivity in the rural areas, lead to pressure on over stretched housing, education and employment opportunities in the free sprouting urban outskirts. Even in relatively industrialized countries, droves of unemployed are continually on the move in the search, for work and a decent standard of living. Recognizing the importance of population dynamics and their effects on development policies, CODESRIA has brought together a unique collection of studies from across the entire African continent. Twelve teams of African researchers and writers have been working since October 1986 to generate information and data on links between population dynamics, development policies, the urbanization process and the crisis of rural Africa. The teams also suggest measures that could be taken to solve the various problems they identify. In this way, this book is not only a valuable reference source, but a vital contribution to the debate on Africa's future.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 1,718円 |
