Summary:
À cause des effets imprévus de l'histoire humaine, ce que nous regroupions sous le nom de Nature quitte l'arrière-plan de notre décor séculaire et monte sur scène, au premier plan. L'air, les océans, les glaciers, le climat, les sols : tout ce que nous avons rendu instable, interagit avec nous. Gaïa est le nom du retour sur Terre de tout ce que nous avions envoyé off(...)

L'air, les océans, les glaciers, le climat, les sols : tout ce que nous avons rendu instable, interagit avec nous. Gaïa est le nom du retour sur Terre de tout ce que nous avions envoyé off shore. Nous sommes ces Terriens, qui se définissent politiquement comme ceux qui se préparent à regarder Gaïa de face. En explorant les mille figures de Gaïa, on peut déplier tout ce que la notion de Nature avait confondu : une éthique, une politique, une étrange conception des sciences et, surtout, une économie et même une théologie.

À cette date, dans le vrai monde, ces 'colonies' rangées dans les cartons à dessins de la NASA entonnent pourtant leur ultime chant du cygne. Cinq ans plus tôt, alors que le célèbre Stewart Brand avait mis un terme à son Whole Earth Catalog (1968-1972) au profit de CoEvolution Quaterly (1974-1985), les 'villes pour 10 000 habitants' conçues par Gerard O'Neill pour l'agence spatiale défrayent les rédacteurs hippies, libertariens architectes, astronautes ou futurs entrepreneurs de la Silicon Valley. Fallait-il fuir notre planète à l'heure de la Bombe P et du 'retour à la terre' ?

Summary:
Par son lent passage ou ses soudaines fluctuations, l'eau façonne nos villes et nos paysages : les crues et les inondations jalonnent la longue histoire des sociétés humaines, les contraignant à modifier leur habitat. Hanté par les mythes diluviens, antiques puis bibliques, l'Occident a opposé à l'eau parfois colossales d'adaptation et de défense, d'endiguement et d'assèchement, d'artificialisation de l'espace. Typique des temps moderne, cette ingénierie dominatrice de l'eau pose aujourd'hui problème car elle fige le territoire dans ses structures rigides, inhabitables et particulièrement vulnérables aux aléas climatiques qui s'intensifient. C'est sur ces sites sensibles que se réinvente aujourd'hui la gestion des crues. L'analyse des projets les plus innovants en Europe, dans les polders néerlandais, les vallées alpines, les bassins de l'Isar ou l'estuaire du Rhin et de la Meuse, révèle les grands enjeux actuels : se réconcilier avec la naturalité des rivières, accepter une part de leurs débordements pour mieux limiter leurs crues, combiner l'inondation et le développement urbain. Entre histoire culturelle, géographie humaine et recherche urbaine, ce livre envisage ainsi ces nouveaux territoires submersibles comme les paradigmes des paysages habités de demain : écologies, dynamiques, inclusifs et combinatoires.

In light of the current political crisis around climate change, what can architecture possibly contribute towards a new planetary imaginary of our contemporary environment beyond environmentalism and technological determinism? Instead of conceptualizing the idea of the environment as purely natural and in need of protection, as solely a problem that needs to be managed, or merely as the Earth, which limits the scope with a scalar bias, can we speculate on architecture as a measure both to assess and to act upon the world? Architecture as Measure is an elaboration on this question, and on the disciplinary and cultural potentials of such a provocation. It positions climate change as a cultural and political idea that requires a renewed architectural environmental imagination.

Summary:
The North is a complex place that is beautiful, moody, and anything but untouched. The Arctic, part of the international North that is pivotal to the world because of climate change, is no longer a frontier of the past. The same interest in the North that preoccupied artists and explorers of the Romantic era has returned greater than ever, but rather than merely depicting its grandeur, today's artists, scientists, and explorers question the future of the landscape. "Up here" connects art, science, and environment at a time when unprecedented climate change requires unprecedented innovation. The contributors explore the ideas of "wilderness" and "remoteness," the lessons to be learned from cold places and indigenous knowledge, and how the Arctic is a signal for global change.
