Summary:
The city in the twenty-first century faces major challenges, including social and economic stratification, wasteful consumption of resources, transportation congestion, and environmental degradation. More than half of the world’s population lives in cities and major metropolitan areas, and in the next two decades the number of city dwellers is estimated to reach five billion. This puts enormous pressures on transportation systems, housing stock, and infrastructure such as energy, waste, and water, which directly influences the emissions of greenhouse gases. As the long emergency awaits us, urgent questions remain: How will our cities survive? How can we combat and reconcile urban growth with sustainable use of resources for future generations to thrive? Where and how urbanism comes into the picture and what “sustainable” urban forms can do in light of these events are some of the issues Sustainable Urbanism and Beyond explores. With more than sixty essays, including contributions by Andrés Duany, Saskia Sassen, Peter Newman, Douglas Farr, Henry Cisneros, Peter Hall, Sharon Zukin, Peter Eisenman, and others, this book is a unique perspective on architecture, urban planning, environmental and urban design, exploring ways for raising quality of life and the standard of living in a new modern era by creating better and more viable places to live.

Summary:
Inventions humaines, les villes constituent des miroirs du changement. Les espaces urbains sont au cœur des processus de globalisation, de transformation technologique et de recomposition économique et sociales des territoires. La qualité de leurs cadres de vie, l'organisation des mobilités et l'agencement de leurs formes, les incidences environnementales de leurs métabolismes, mais aussi leur gouvernance, constituent des enjeux d'une brûlante actualité. Cette publication collective, élaborée dans le cadre lémanique du Programme interuniversitaire Sciences, Vie, Société, a pour objectif d'analyser les problématiques et les enjeux relatifs aux transformations des espaces urbains à l'aide du concept de développement durable. Elle montre de quelle façon cette notion permet de renouveler le questionnement sur les formes, les structures et les dynamiques urbaines. L'éco-urbanisme pose de manière centrale les questions du dialogue entre les acteurs de la ville et de leur participation à la conception et à la mise en œuvre du projet urbain.
