Summary:
Who gets to be where? ''The arsenal of exclusion & inclusion'' examines some of the policies, practices, and physical artifacts that have been used by planners, policymakers, developers, real estate brokers, community activists, and other urban actors in the United States to draw, erase, or redraw the lines that divide. The Arsenal inventories these weapons of exclusion and inclusion, describes how they have been used, and speculates about how they might be deployed (or retired) for the sake of more open cities in which more people have access to more places. With contributions from over fifty architects, planners, geographers, historians, and journalists, ''The arsenal'' offers a wide-ranging view of the forces that shape our cities.

Summary:
« Urbanisme et inclusion: les défis de l’équité territoriale » est un ouvrage collectif réunissant des textes de diverses disciplines associées aux études urbaines (urbanisme, sociologie, géographie, etc.), issus de recherches théoriques aussi bien que d’expériences professionnelles en urbanisme, afin de cerner comment sont créées et maintenues les capacités des villes et des territoires à tenir compte équitablement des besoins de tous leurs citoyens et citoyennes. Avec des contributions de chercheurs et chercheuses et de praticiens et praticiennes de Montréal et d’ailleurs, cet ouvrage entend provoquer la rencontre de plusieurs dimensions de ce qui constitue la ville et les territoires dits inclusifs, et répond à la question suivante : comment les villes et les territoires parviennent-ils à offrir des environnements sains, accessibles, équitables et bien pourvus en infrastructures à une population dont les besoins sont diversifiés ?

Summary:
Sometimes designed objects reject their users: a computer mouse that doesn't work for left-handed people, for example, or a touchscreen payment system that only works for people who read English phrases, have 20/20 vision, and use a credit card. Something as simple as color choices can render a product unusable for millions. These mismatches are the building blocks of(...)

Summary:
Sometimes designed objects reject their users: a computer mouse that doesn't work for left-handed people, for example, or a touchscreen payment system that only works for people who read English phrases, have 20/20 vision, and use a credit card. Something as simple as color choices can render a product unusable for millions. These mismatches are the building blocks of exclusion. In Mismatch, Kat Holmes describes how design can lead to exclusion, and how design can also remedy exclusion. Inclusive design methods?designing objects with rather than for excluded users?can create elegant solutions that work well and benefit all.

Summary:
101 Things that Open and Close the City. 50 leading experts provide tools for analyzing how the Open City is made and unmade. Urban History 101 teaches us that the built environment is not the product of invisible, uncontrollable market forces, but of human-made tools that could have been used differently (or not at all). The Arsenal of Exclusion & Inclusion is an encyclopedia of the human-made tools used by architects, planners, policy-makers, developers, real estate brokers, activists, and other urban actors in the United States to restrict or increase access to the spaces of our cities and suburbs. The Arsenal of Exclusion & Inclusion inventories these tools—or what we call weapons—examines how they have been used, and speculates about how they might be deployed (or retired) to make more open cities in which more people feel welcome in more spaces.
