Résumé:
In his most syncretic writing yet, radical urban theorist Mike Davis explores the combat zone that is contemporary urban America, a ceaseless battle waged both within cities and against nature. Using environmental science as his frame of understanding, Davis examines themes of urban life today—white flight, deindustrialization, housing and job segregation and discrimination, and federal policy—and looks at areas he calls "national sacrifice zones," military landscapes that simulated warfare and arms production have rendered uninhabitable. Davis begins our apocalyptically inflected tour with a trip to New York’s Ground Zero. He then takes us to "German Village," a Utah wasteland that was once a test site for Allied science advisors to rehearse the perfect plan for destroying Berlin, and to the diabolic miracle of Las Vegas, where environmental terrorism is practiced in the name of urban development. Davis also hits Los Angeles, the frontline of the "Second Civil War" sparked by American apartheid, and which lies waiting to be ignited in cities across the country.

Résumé:
This multi-disciplinary analysis looks ahead to the direction which the study of urban society is likely to take during the twenty-first century. Leading researchers from sociology, geography, anthropology and cultural studies examine the research issues which emerged during the 1990s, particularly from political economy and cultural turn perspectives. Their exploration reveals both how urban studies has fragmented, and how a new middle ground for future debate and research has arisen. The volume brings together theoretical discussion of urban studies with analyses of urban processes at both regional and local levels around the globe. It enables readers to assess the degree to which differing perspectives have produced dynamic diversity as well as areas of mutual interest, creating exciting possibilities for urban studies locally and globally.

L'œuvre de l'architecte, célébrée en vue de la faire accéder au rang du patrimoine mondial, laisse planer une ombre qui masque la perception des vies ordinaires du quartier. L'immeuble collectif dont il est question ici ressemble à l'unité d'habitation Le Corbusier. Toutefois, il n'en a que l'apparence. L'enquête ethnologique qui débuta au Corbusier, dernière unité d'habitation, s'est déplacée afin d'observer et d'écouter les locataires d'un habitat collectif ordinaire dont la vie s'estompe derrière le feu sacré du patrimoine Le Corbusier. Un regard porté sur la vie ordinaire des habitants du « grand H » amorce un questionnement sur les enjeux liés à notre mémoire, à son statut et à la nécessité d'une collecte sans concession.

Résumé:
Nearly one in six Americans lives in "Megalopolis," an area of the northeastern United States along the I-95 corridor that includes the cities of Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York, and Boston. Liquid City is the first book to examine the major changes that have taken place in this "Main Street of the Nation" over the last half century. In 1957, geographer Jean Gottman used the term "Megalopolis" to denote the Boston-to-Washington corridor. His seminal book, Megalopolis: The Urbanized Northeastern Seaboard of the United States, described the social, economic, and demographic characteristics of one of the largest city regions in the world. John Rennie Short juxtaposes Gottman's work with his own examination, providing a comprehensive assessment of the region's evolution. Particularly important is Short's use of the 2000 census data and his discussion of Megalopolis as a source of identity for the area's forty-nine million inhabitants. This clear and accessible book focuses on five main aspects of change in the region: population redistribution from cities to suburbs; economic restructuring as exemplified by the suburbanization of employment; the role of immigration; patterns of racial/ethnic segregation; and the processes of globalization that have made Megalopolis one of the world's most influential economies.
