Summary:
''Ulaanbaatar: beyond water and grass'' is the first book in the English language that takes the visitors to an in-depth exploration of the capital of Mongolia. In the first section of the book, M. A. Aldrich paints a detailed portrait of the history, religion, and architecture of Ulaanbaatar with reference to how the city evolved from a monastic settlement to a communist-inspired capital and finally to a major city of free-wheeling capitalism and Tammany Hall politics. The second section of the book offers the reader a tour of different sites within the city and beyond, bringing back to life the human dramas that have played themselves out on the stage of Ulaanbaatar. Where most guide books often lightly discuss the capital, this book reveals much that remains hidden from the temporary visitor and even from the long-term resident. Writing in a quirky, idiosyncratic style, the author shares his appreciation and delight in this unique urban setting- indeed, in all things Mongolian.

''Unpayable debt'' examines the relationships among coloniality, raciality, and global capital from a black feminist ''poethical'' perspective. Inspired by Octavia E. Butler's 1979 sci-fi novel ''Kindred,'' in which an African-American writer is transported back in time to the antebellum South to save her owner-ancestor, ''Unpayable debt'' relates the notion of value to(...)

Butler's 1979 sci-fi novel ''Kindred,'' in which an African-American writer is transported back in time to the antebellum South to save her owner-ancestor, ''Unpayable debt'' relates the notion of value to coloniality—both economic and ethical. Focusing on the philosophy behind value, Denise Ferreira da Silva exposes capital as the juridical architecture and ethical grammar of the world. Here, raciality—a symbol of coloniality—justifies deployments of total violence to enable expropriation and land extraction.

Ce titre provocateur nous rappelle que les capitales russe et américaine ont été conçues par deux architectes français, Jean-Baptiste Alexandre Le Blond et Pierre-Charles L’Enfant. Le premier projet mentionné, celui de Saint-Pétersbourg, est établi en 1717 et ne verra jamais le jour, tandis que le second, destiné à Washington, date de 1790 et sera intégralement réalisé.(...)

Le premier projet mentionné, celui de Saint-Pétersbourg, est établi en 1717 et ne verra jamais le jour, tandis que le second, destiné à Washington, date de 1790 et sera intégralement réalisé. André Corboz postule que les plans des deux capitales ont été élaborés à la manière dont on dessine un parc ou un jardin, les masses à bâtir étant inspiréesdes volumes végétaux. Ce rapprochement formel s’accompagne de considérations sur l’hygiène des villes et la symbolique des divers lieux urbains. «André Corboz naît en 1928. Après des études de droit à l’Université de Genève, il va bientôt succomber à une vocation d’historien autodidacte qui se penche sur l’histoire de la ville. «L’invention de Carouge» est son premier ouvrage alors qu’il était professeur à l’Université de Montréal où il restera treize ans, avant d’être appelé à succéder à Paul Hofer à la chaire d’histoire de l’urbanisme à l’École polytechnique fédérale de Zurich. En 2003, l’Académie d’architecture lui décerne la médaille de l’Histoire de l’art.»
