Processes of globalisation, economic restructuring and urban redevelopment have placed events at the centre of strategies for change in cities. Events offer the potential to achieve economic, social, cultural and environmental outcomes within broader urban development strategies. This volume: * Analyses the process of cultural event development, management and marketing and links these processes to their wider cultural, social and economic context * Provides a unique blend of practical and academic analysis, with a selection of major events and festivals in cities where eventfulness has been an important element of development strategy * Examines the reasons why different stakeholders should collaborate, as well as the reasons why cities succeed or fail to develop events and become eventful Eventful Cities: cultural management and urban revitalisation evaluates theoretical perspectives and links theory and practice through case studies of cities and events across the world. Critical success factors are identified which can help to guide cities and regions to develop event strategies. This book is essential reading for any undergraduate or graduate student and all practitioners and policy-makers involved in event management, cultural management, arts administration, urban studies, cultural studies and tourism.

Soft City begins with the big ideas of happiness and quality of life, and then shows how they are tied to the way we live. The heart of the book is highly visual and shows the building blocks for neighborhoods: building types and their organization and orientation; how we can get along as we get around a city; and living with the weather. As every citizen deals with the reality of a changing climate, Soft City explores how the built environment can adapt and respond. Soft City offers inspiration, ideas, and guidance for anyone interested in city building. Sim shows how to make any city more efficient, more livable, and better connected to the environment.

For decades, neighbourhoods have been pivotal sites of social, economic and political exclusion processes, and civil society initiatives, attempting bottom-up strategies of re-development and regeneration. In many cases these efforts resulted in the creation of socially innovative organizations, seeking to satisfy the basic human needs of deprived population groups, to increase their political capabilities and to improve social interaction both internally and between the local communities, the wider urban society and the political world. Singocom-Social Innovation Governance and Community building-is the acronym of the Eu-funded project on which this book is based. Sisteen case studies of socially innovative initiatives at the neighbourhood level were carried out in nine European cities, of which ten are analysed in depth and presented here. The book compares these efforts and their results, and shows how grass-roots initiatives, alternative local movements and self-organising urban collectives are reshaping the urban scene in dynamic, creative, innovative and empowering ways. It argues that such grass-roots initiatives are vital for generating a socially cohesive urban condition that exists alongside the official state-organised forms of urban governance. The book is thus a major contribution to socio-political literature, as it seeks to overcome the duality between community-development studies and strategies, and the solidarity-based making of a diverse society based upon the recognising and maintaining of citizenship rights. It will be of particular interest to both students and researchers in the fields of urban studies, social geography and political science. --Book Jacket.

Zonder 'Death and Life of Great American Cities' (1961) van Jane Jacobs was de twintigste eeuw een andere geweest, schreef architectuurcriticus Bernard Hulsman in 1998. In de essaybundel 'De levende stad' nemen invloedrijke stedenbouwers, sociale wetenschappers en economen de standpunten van Jacobs onder de loep en vragen zich af wat hun betekenis is voor de Nederlandse stad van de eenentwintigste eeuw. Jacobs pleit voor wonen, werken en winkelen in één buurt, voor kleine huizenblokken, voor oude en nieuwe gebouwen door elkaar, en alles dicht op elkaar. Is haar beeld stammend uit de jaren zestig niet wat te romantisch en gelden haar ideeën nog wel voor de moderne suburbane bewoner die razendsnel zijn weg vindt in de netwerksamenleving? Deze bundel onderzoekt hoe een vitale stadswijk in Nederland baat kan hebben bij de ideeën van Jane Jacobs, zelfs in de buitenwijk. Wat is er nodig om diversiteit in ruimtegebruik te bereiken; waarom zijn brede stoepen van belang; waarom moeten kinderen in de stad kunnen spelen; wat is een creatieve stad; welke stedelijkheid hoort bij de buitenwijk; hoe maak je aansluiting van gebouw op de straat? Vragen waarop deze bundel een antwoord geeft.

Growth has been both an unspoken and an explicit aim of our individual and collective striving. It governs the lives of microorganisms and galaxies; it shapes the capabilities of our extraordinarily large brains and the fortunes of our economies. Growth is manifested in annual increments of continental crust, a rising gross domestic product, a child's growth chart, the spread of cancerous cells. In this magisterial book, Vaclav Smil offers systematic investigation of growth in nature and society, from tiny organisms to the trajectories of empires and civilizations. Smil takes readers from bacterial invasions through animal metabolisms to megacities and the global economy. He begins with organisms whose mature sizes range from microscopic to enormous, looking at disease-causing microbes, the cultivation of staple crops, and human growth from infancy to adulthood. He examines the growth of energy conversions and man-made objects that enable economic activities--developments that have been essential to civilization. Finally, he looks at growth in complex systems, beginning with the growth of human populations and proceeding to the growth of cities. He considers the challenges of tracing the growth of empires and civilizations, explaining that we can chart the growth of organisms across individual and evolutionary time, but that the progress of societies and economies, not so linear, encompasses both decline and renewal. The trajectory of modern civilization, driven by competing imperatives of material growth and biospheric limits, Smil tells us, remains uncertain. --

Crossover is the very first publication by the Delft School of Design (DSD), a laboratory for research and experimentation in architecture, urbanism and technologies of construction at the TU Delft. Its investigations cover a wide variety of subjects, from theoretical considerations and historical studies to urban and architectural practices and contemporary structural design. What they all have in common is the emerging condition of architectural and urban knowledge in both the academic context and professional practice. Since its inception in 2003, the DSD has developed a strategy or field of inquiry for mapping new means of approaching the complexity of the contemporary urban and architectural conditions. Traditional approaches are seen to be increasingly inadequate in the face of this complexity. This is in part due to the nature of the information age. Yet, on the other hand, new technologies offer us the challenge and the potential to represent our world in unprecedented ways.

De hedendaagse jeugd in de steden wordt al te vaak bekeken als een hardnekkig probleem. De verjonging, verarming en verbreding worden vandaag enkel als struikelblok gezien i.p.v. hierin te investeren met visie, ambitie, lef en leiderschap. Dat is precies wat de auteur wil doen: in haar boek pleit ze voor een andere kijk op de stedelijke jeugd. Centraal staat de kracht van jongeren: dit is dé sleutel voor de toekomst. De nieuwe generatie wordt aangespoord om in actie te komen en niet af te wachten, om de betreden paden te verlaten en met veel goesting de regie van onze samenleving en hun eigen leven in handen te nemen. Sihame werpt zich op als eerste vernieuwde Belg en wil daarmee het hele integratie-debat, het huidige wij-zij denken, het segregerende beleid en de holle semantische discussies over een andere boeg gooien. Niet door erover te praten, maar door het te zijn.Een positief verhaal van inclusie en geloven in het potentieel van de stedelijke jeugd Kritisch optimisme, ondernemerschap, goesting, burgerschap zijn waarden die de vernieuwde Belg typeren en die volledig losstaan van leeftijd, sociale klasse, etnie, cultuur, taal. Het vernieuwde Belg-zijn is een attitude die we meedragen en uitdragen.www.lannoocampus.be

De catalogus bij de hedendaagse kunst en architectuur Triënnale Brugge 2015 is geen traditionele tentoonstellingscatalogus te noemen, maar wordt opgevat als een 'open' publicatie. Zo wordt de catalogus een forum, een ontmoetingsplaats waar verschillende standpunten en invalshoeken over verstedelijking en over de plaats van kunst in een stedelijke ruimte in dialoog gaan. 'Wetenschappelijke traktaten komen er niet aan te pas, het thema wordt uitgediept aan de hand van interviews, o.a. met de Deense architect Jan Gehl, met professor Eric Corijn, met de curatoren Peter Pakesh en Kasper König.' Een prachtig naslagwerk dat verder reikt dan de tentoonstelling alleen, maar over de grenzen heen gaat om de gevolgen van urbanisatie vast te leggen, en wat de rol van kunst en architectuur daarin kan zijn.

In een pluriforme en geïndividualiseerde samenleving is het verlangen naar hechte gemeenschappen niet raadzaam. De ontwikkeling van een wij-gevoel kan tot verdeeldheid en uitsluiting leiden in plaats van een verbeterde leefkwaliteit. Dat is de conclusie van de auteurs. Maar dan ... Hoe wordt bewonersactivisme in achterstandswijken bevorderd? Draagt zeggenschap van bewoners bij aan de oplossing van onveiligheid? Wat kunnen politiemensen en andere professionals doen om bewoners te activeren? Het boek gaat in op deze vragen en er worden vele uiteenlopende literatuurbevindingen gepresenteerd. Het versterken van sociale netwerken ('buurtcohesie') is geen voorwaarde voor een actieve deelname van bewoners in achterstandswijken. Het kan zelfs een hindernis zijn voor de verbetering van de veiligheid en leefbaarheid van de buurt. Om actief te worden is identificatie met de buurt, en vooral het ontwikkelen van een aantrekkelijke toekomstige 'imagined community' van belang. De auteurs plaatsen ook vraagtekens bij de heilzame werking van de komst van bewoners met midden- en hogere inkomens naar achterstandswijken. Bewoners in achterstandswijken activeren is volgens hen de taak van publieke functionarissen. De auteurs concluderen dat een succesvolle aanpak van de problematiek alleen mogelijk is door een duurzaam engagement
