Summary:
In this book environmentalist and lawyer William Shutkin describes a new kind of environmental and social activism spreading across the nation, one that joins the pursuit of environmental quality with that of civic health and sustainable local economies. In the face of challenges posed by often corrosive market forces and widespread social disaffection, this civic environmentalism is creating nothing less than a new public discourse and dynamic social vision grounded in environmental action. Shutkin points the way to vibrant, sustainable communities through four inspiring examples of civic environmentalism in action: the redevelopment of contaminated urban land for agriculture in inner-city Boston, mass-transit-based development and waterfront restoration in Oakland, protection of open space and conservation-based development in rural Colorado, and smart-growth and sustainability strategies in suburban New Jersey. The book's underlying message is that the nation's environmental health is a critical factor in its success as a vital democracy. Social health, democratic community, and environmentalism, Shutkin shows, are one.

Aménagement urbain et croissance économique se sont développés de concert pendant toute la période de forte urbanisation. La production d'un espace public de qualité a été un facteur de développement économique, alors que la croissance permettait de pérenniser les systèmes foncier et financier qui sont le socle de l'aménagement opérationnel.

Summary:
Aménagement urbain et croissance économique se sont développés de concert pendant toute la période de forte urbanisation. La production d'un espace public de qualité a été un facteur de développement économique, alors que la croissance permettait de pérenniser les systèmes foncier et financier qui sont le socle de l'aménagement opérationnel. Un constat de ruptures s'impose aujourd'hui. Non seulement le souci de maîtrise des financements publics y oblige, mais le contexte économique, social et culturel nous contraint à imaginer de nouvelles logiques de production et de gestion des villes, et à créer leurs conditions de faisabilité. La construction des villes, hier prioritaire, est aujourd'hui relayée par d'autres enjeux : assurer plus de services, sans laisser s'imposer une logique marchande exclusive et dominatrice; permettre l'adaptation continue des espaces aménagés; rompre le cloisonnement fonctionnel des villes; répondre aux aspirations sociales des habitants. Croisant leurs regards, les trois auteurs tentent une analyse qui pose les jalons de ce que pourrait devenir l'aménagement urbain, si une attention plus forte était portée à ces nouveaux enjeux.

This volume investigates impact of these vast industrial estates on landscape and society from various perspectives. It reveals the architectural and spatial, legal, economic, social, and environmental ramifications of the logistics system in this region and elsewhere. It examines the ensembles of windowless steel boxes on three scales: as an architectonic-landscape entity the size of a small town, as a network that reshapes the map of Europe so to define its own territoriality, and as part of the everyday life of the workers inside and the residents around them.

Summary:
Deeply divided, with ethnic French dominating the south and a large, vibrant North African community in the north, the city of Marseille typifies the tensions stemming from problematic governance, a constant influx of migrants, the widespread privatisation of services, and rapid, profit-driven, and destructive post-industrial urbanisation. Examining this complex city through a series of case studies of its built environment, this book tells of an urban reality where migration is especially prevalent. Essays, photographs, and drawings illustrate the impact of migration on space, architecture, and territory. But it also offers strategies for development that can support social and spatial integration.
