Summary:
In this publication, the author examines the complex relationship between performance and national identity. How do theatrical performances represent the nation in which they were created? How is Quebecois performance used to define Quebec as a nation and to cultivate a sense of 'Quebec-ness' for audiences both within and outside the province? In exploring Expo 67, the critical response to Michel Tremblay's Les Belles Soeurs, Carbone 14's image-theatre, Marco Micone's writing practices, Celine Dion's popular music, and feminist performance of the 1970s and 80s, Hurley reveals the ways in which certain performances come to be understood as 'national' while others are relegated to sub-national or outsider status. Each chapter focuses on a particular historical moment in Quebec's modern history and a genre of performance emblematic of the moment, and uses these to elaborate the nature of the national performances.

Doit-on choisir entre prospérité et développement d'un côté et lutte contre le dérèglement climatique de l'autre ? Non, répond l'économiste Nicholas Stern, neuf ans après la publication de son premier rapport, qui avait changé la façon de percevoir les relations entre économie et climat. Ce nouveau livre de référence démontre que ce qui est bon pour le climat l'est aussi pour notre économie. Alors que Paris accueille fin 2015 la conférence des Nations unies sur le climat, il présente un plan d'action, véritable feuille de route de la transition des modèles économiques à l'échelle mondiale. Au terme de recherches inédites, une commission composée de nombreux économistes de renom démontre que, du Brésil à la Chine en passant par l'Europe, la transition vers un nouveau monde sorti de sa dépendance au carbone et aux énergies fossiles est non seulement possible, mais également désirable.

Summary:
In this volume of the Critical Spatial Practice series, Dennis Pohl locates the origin of Europe's dependency on carbon and nuclear power in the postwar architectural designs and energy policies of the European Community. Since the 1950s, architects have proposed territorial, regional, and urban development plans that served the European political project. They collaborated with the European Coal and Steel Community in an effort to render the steel building industry as efficient as the car industry; they incorporated the ideas of infinite nuclear energy, as promoted by the European Atomic Energy Community, into their designs. This book demonstrates how architecture served the political economy of postwar Europe as a means of turning coal, steel, and radioactivity into tools of European governance. Architectural design enabled EU institutions to support social policies and worker housing within the coal and steel industry as well as to promote a new pan-European lifestyle based on nuclear energy. In other words, architecture powered Europe's larger infrastructural, economic, and cultural network. Pohl's work not only sheds light on how architecture has contributed to the carbonization of Europe, it also highlights the environmental issue, which challenges both architectural criticism and historiography in the era of the Anthropocene.

Summary:
Le sol est un extraordinaire réservoir de biodiversité : il produit des ressources, stocke du carbone, régule les eaux, apporte des nutriments aux végétaux. Support dynamique, il se transforme sous l'action de l'homme, des écosystèmes, du climat et constitue un allié incontournable pour la préservation des territoires habitables.Pourtant les sols vivants sont encore insuffisamment considérés dans les projets urbains, dans les démarches de planification, et plus largement dans les politiques publiques d'aménagement ou dans les modèles économiques, qui doivent être repensés pour atteindre nos objectifs de sobriété foncière.Tirant parti des retours d'expérience de cinq sites lauréats de « l'Atelier des territoires », piloté par le ministère en charge de l'urbanisme, cet ouvrage rend compte des propositions de territoires pionniers : mutualiser et régénérer les terres excavées en Indre-et-Loire; conforter les structures bocagères dans le Calvados; repenser les modèles de portage foncier en Seine-et-Marne; révéler les trames brunes dans l'Hérault; intégrer la valeur plurifactorielle des sols dans les arbitrages d'aménagement en Guadeloupe, etc.
