Résumé:
À la façon d'un journal de bord construit rétrospectivement, cet ouvrage revisite quatre opérations de logements mises en œuvre vers la fin des années cinquante : la ville verte de Briey-en-Forêt, la ville nouvelle de Bagnols-sur-Cèze, la ZUP de Bures-Orsay et la cité des 4000 à La Courneuve. Il rend compte de la façon dont le site, avec ses contraintes géographiques et administratives, a singularisé cet habitat pensé a priori comme uniforme. Visites de chantier, relevés de terrain, croquis in situ et échanges entre architectes et élus locaux sont examinés en détail afin d'exposer les lignes de conflit et les divergences d'intérêts qui peu à peu détournent les chantiers de leur programme initial. Remettant en question l'idée du site comme impensé des grands ensembles, ce livre prend part au débat actuel sur la démolition reconstruction du logement subventionné en proposant une politique de transformation fondée sur la spécificité du lieu.

Résumé:
Montpellier est passée du statut de capitale régionale à celui de technopole jusqu'à s'afficher peu à peu métropole. Concernant les questions d'urbanisme et d'aménagement, cette ville singulière constitue ainsi un riche terrain d'étude pour les chercheurs qui, ici, s'attachent à analyser stratégies et projets urbains. Intégrant le regard de trois disciplines - architecture, géographie, science politique - ils appréhendent des dimensions complémentaires qui permettent de mieux lire la ville : ses formes urbaines, l'aménagement de ses espaces et ses modes de gouvernance. De Polygone à Odysseum en passant par Montpellier-Grand-Coeur, le tramway, les opérations de résidentialisation, les politiques culturelles ou le Schéma de cohérence territoriale, l'ouvrage s'articule autour des grands projets et dévoile les problématiques d'un territoire en mouvement, au coeur de la question métropolitaine, partant d'un " territoire projeté " pour affirmer un " style de ville ". Ce livre est le cinquième d'une série d'ouvrages spécifiques à chacune des villes ayant participé au programme Popsu (Plate-forme d'observation des projets et stratégies urbaines).

Résumé:
The starting point of this systematic book are the numerous archiving processes used in the Amsterdam City Archives, one of the largest city archives in the world. From the extensive collection of millions of documents, 200 pieces have been filtered for this book, showing in different ways how the archive has systematically documented the city of Amsterdam over the years. Using the structure of a time-line, the book goes back into time, from the digital acquisitions in 2010 to the first record of the city in 1275. Tag clouds, zooms, search engines, theme links, data visualisations and metadata can help while navigating through the book and allow the reader to jump through time in a non-linear way.
