Abstract

Ce numéro s'intéresse aux relations, réelles ou imaginaires, et aux limites mouvantes entre métropole et agriculture. De tout temps, ces deux champs ont été étroitement liés : émergence conjointe de l'agriculture et des villes, démographie humaine et urbaine en lien avec les techniques de production agricoles, formes rurales et urbaines interdépendantes, etc. Par ailleurs, la situation contemporaine, où ces objets connaissent de nouvelles, profondes et durables mutations, révèle l'intérêt - voire l'urgence ? - de tentatives de reformulation de cette interaction entre agriculture et phénomène métropolitain. C'est cette hypothèse, qui du reste semble réunir actuellement monde de la recherche et monde professionnel, que cette livraison des Cahiers thématiques souhaite poser ici : quelles pistes pour relever de conserve les défis agricoles et urbains contemporains ? Quelles relations entre métropole et agriculture à travers l'histoire ? Quelles nouvelles situations et mutations contemporaines ? Quelles opportunités pour la recherche et l'action dans les domaines de l'aménagement du territoire, depuis les centres urbains jusqu'aux lisières des métropoles?

Abstract

Rapid urbanization represents major threats and challenges to personal and public health. The World Health Organisation identifies the 'urban health threat' as three-fold: infectious diseases, non-communicable diseases; and violence and injury from, amongst other things, road traffic. Within this tripartite structure of health issues in the built environment, there are multiple individual issues affecting both the developed and the developing worlds and the global north and south. Reflecting on a broad set of interrelated concerns about health and the design of the places we inhabit, this book seeks to better understand the interconnectedness and potential solutions to the problems associated with health and the built environment. Divided into three key themes: home, city, and society, each section presents a number of research chapters that explore global processes, transformative praxis and emergent trends in architecture, urban design and healthy city research. Drawing together practicing architects, academics, scholars, public health professional and activists from around the world to provide perspectives on design for health, this book includes emerging research on: healthy homes, walkable cities, design for ageing, dementia and the built environment, health equality and urban poverty, community health services, neighbourhood support and wellbeing, urban sanitation and communicable disease, the role of transport infrastructures and government policy, and the cost implications of 'unhealthy' cities etc. To that end, this book examines alternative and radical ways of practicing architecture and the re-imagining of the profession of architecture through a lens of human health.
