Résumé:
Catalogue. Basle 2008/09. Introduction by Kai Vöckler. This is the first of a series of investigations of urban development in post-conflict areas, initiated by Archis Interventions. After NATO-led KFOR troops ended civil war in Kosovo (1999), an instant building boom changed the capital Prishtina dramatically. Within a few years its population doubled, partly as a consequence of an influx of returning refugees. This book describes, maps and analyzes the situation in Prishtina after 1999, documents problem-solving strategies, and discusses the significance of this kind of urban development for the way urban life evolves in crisis zones. The title hints at two phenomena: firstly, urban development of this type is typical for many post-conflict situations, and secondly, most of the construction in Prishtina has been financed by remittances from family members working abroad (one-fifth of Kosovo’s entire population lives abroad, specifically in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria).

Résumé:
Du président de la République au maire de Paris en passant par le président de la région Île-de-France, voilà trois strates du pouvoir, celui de l'État, des collectivités territoriales et de la municipalité parisienne qui, armées d'un nouveau secrétaire d'État, se portent au chevet de la capitale française pour décider de son avenir, cinquante ans après la mission Delouvrier. Mais plus que d'un nouvel Haussmann autoritaire, plus que d'effets d'annonce, de luttes politiciennes ou de mirifiques et prestigieux projets, le Grand-Paris a besoin de se forger une identité et un destin communs. Pour servir cette ambition, il convient d'expliquer et d'analyser les aspects de cette métropole, c'est précisément la tâche à laquelle ce livre s'assigne. Il traite de la forme de la ville en essayant de fournir des outils comme des repères pour décrire l'agglomération parisienne et imaginer son avenir au XXIe siècle au sein des grandes métropoles mondiales. Le débat sur Paris et son agglomération est essentiel : quelle ville et pour qui ? Par quelles modalités associer les citoyens aux décisions qui les concernent ? Comment faire participer les acteurs économiques aux stratégies d'aménagement qui fixent le cadre du développement ? Cette discussion se nourrit des espoirs, des inquiétudes et des prises de conscience, certaines récentes, sur l'environnement et la préservation des ressources, sur la densité et l'économie des sols, sur les modes de transport et le développement économique, sur le logement et l'emploi. Philippe Panerai est architecte et urbaniste. Son activité professionnelle, façonnée par la pratique de l'enseignement et de la recherche, se déploie selon trois grands champs : le grand territoire, la forme de la ville et l'intégration des grandes infrastructures, les mutations du tissu urbain, notamment celles des grands ensembles de logements sociaux.

Résumé:
Why does modern planning sometimes create urban environments that are less attractive and functional than the 'organic urbanism' of traditional cities? "Cities Design and Evolution" takes up the challenge of this question, investigating 'how cities are put together', both in the sense of how the parts are organised in relation to the whole, and how they are created or evolve over time."Cities Design and Evolution" offers an engaging and original narrative that interprets planning philosophies from Modernism to New Urbanism, organic theories from Patrick Geddes to Le Corbusier, and evolutionary thinking from Charles Darwin to Richard Dawkins. The book develops a new evolutionary perspective that recognises both the 'designed' and 'organic' nature of cities, and provides a rationale and impetus for fresh approaches to urban planning and design. In what is the first book to significantly apply modern evolutionary thinking to urbanism, "Cities Design and Evolution" promises to stimulate thought, debate and action concerning the nature of cities and future urban planning. The book should appeal to all who are interested in cities, in design and in evolution.
