Why Don't American Cities Burn? traces the collision of urban transformation with the rightward-moving social politics of late twentieth- and early twenty-first-century America.

Summary:
Why Don't American Cities Burn? traces the collision of urban transformation with the rightward-moving social politics of late twentieth- and early twenty-first-century America. He shows how the bifurcation of black social structures produced a new African American inequality and traces the shift from images of a pathological black "underclass" to praise of the entrepreneurial poor who take advantage of new technologies of poverty work to find the beginning of the path to the middle class. He explores the reasons American cities since the early 1970s have remained relatively free of collective violence while black men in bleak inner-city neighborhoods have turned their rage inward on one another rather than on the agents and symbols of a culture and political economy that exclude them. The book ends with a meditation on how the political left and right have come to believe that urban transformation is inevitably one of failure and decline abetted by the response of government to deindustrialization, poverty, and race. How, Katz asks, can we construct a new narrative that acknowledges the dark side of urban history even as it demonstrates the capacity of government to address the problems of cities and their residents? How can we create a politics of modest hope?

Summary:
America's once-vibrant small-to-midsize cities -Syracuse, Worcester, Akron, Flint, Rockford, and others - increasingly resemble urban wastelands. Gutted by deindustrialization, outsourcing, and middle-class flight, disproportionately devastated by metro freeway systems that laid waste to the urban fabric and displaced the working poor, and struggling with pockets of(...)

Summary:
America's once-vibrant small-to-midsize cities -Syracuse, Worcester, Akron, Flint, Rockford, and others - increasingly resemble urban wastelands. Gutted by deindustrialization, outsourcing, and middle-class flight, disproportionately devastated by metro freeway systems that laid waste to the urban fabric and displaced the working poor, and struggling with pockets of poverty reminiscent of postcolonial squalor, small industrial cities - as a class - have become invisible to a public distracted by the Wall Street (big city) versus Main Street (small town) match up. These cities would seem to be part of America's past, not its future. And yet, journalist and historian Catherine Tumber argues in this provocative book, America's gritty Rust Belt cities could play a central role in a greener, low-carbon, relocalized future.

Pourtant le jugement est expéditif. L’architecte est un bouc émissaire facile. Il y a d’autres coupables : maires mégalomanes, entreprises déficientes, fait du prince, concours biaisés, juridiction écrasante, pots-de-vin, inculture des maîtres d’ouvrages et poujadisme du public. Faut-il pendre les architectes ? dresse le constat sévère d’un milieu et d’un système qui n’en finissent pas de produire des erreurs monumentales. Les architectes qui s’en sortent n’en sont que plus méritants. On peut se pendre à leur cou.

We explore it like a fourth dimension and it is an essential part of the way we imagine space and things to come. When we carried out our first experience in 1995, colour seemed disturbing and took a secondary role. Monochrome was our main statement in a radical approach to volumes, materials and textures. Our desire for colour is still spontaneous and intuitive. We spatialise it to enhance the present and shape the future" - Olivier Guillemin & Olivier Védrine

Summary:
Julien Valée explore the relative roles of the computer and handmade processes in design. Vallée works in a wide range of fields, including art direction, motion graphics, print design, and art installation as well as video and design for the television industry. With his expert use of manual processes strongly supported by the technological tools of today-mainly in mixing a digital conception phase with different implementation materials, such as paper, wood, and plastic-he creates outstanding art and design that seamlessly bridges the gaps between these disciplines. This first monograph not only presents Julien Vallée's commissioned work for clients such as the New York Times, MTV, AOL, and Computer Arts, but also includes a selection of personal projects. Each book includes a unique log-in code for accessing his video work online.
