This book explores the history, planning, and design of urban settlements across the Arctic, tracing how they have been formed by colonial expansion, Indigenous cultures, resource extraction, and welfare-state ambitions. It examines the complex relationships between landscape, infrastructure, and community, while considering the challenges and opportunities facing northern cities today. Against a backdrop of climate change, globalisation, and shifting geopolitical interests, the book reflects on how Arctic urban communities can navigate an uncertain future and reimagine their role in a rapidly changing world.

Résumé:
We have come to enjoy plentiful lifestyles in the 21st century, yet we are also facing issues such as climate change, social inequality, epidemics, and the shifts in global dynamics brought on by these things. ‘'How is Life?'’ takes another look at the various facets of our everyday lives, reframing architecture as something that serves to make people’s lives better and exploring ways in which design can be employed to achieve prosperity not premised on growth. By introducing projects that offer possibilities which depart from traditional conceptions of architecture and the city, the book sparks a fresh awareness, inspiring you to explore new perspectives for living together with our Earth.

"Accidental gravity" moves from upstate New York to the contemporary western U.S. and into Canada, from urban and suburban places to wild lands. The essays are informative, but the focus is personal. Quetchenbach writes about urban and suburban places as well as wild lands. In the first section of the book, he focuses on suburban neighborhoods, “the places where tensions between human and animal nature, and between differing concepts of the natural world, come to the fore.” In the second section, he juxtaposes these humanized places with Yellowstone National Park, in the context of climate change and other contemporary pressures. This is nature writing at its finest.

The "Green Heart" exhibition showcases the "Marina One" project by ingenhoven architects, which will open in the center of Singapore at the end of 2017. As an international role model for living and working, "Marina One" makes an innovative contribution to the discourse on mega-cities, especially in tropical regions, which, in the context of increasing population and climate change, face enormous challenges. The high-density building complex with its mix of uses extends to over 400,000 square meters and, with its group of four high-rise buildings, defines the "Green Heart"—a public space extending over several stories. This three-dimensional green oasis reflects the diversity of tropical flora.

Résumé:
The violence wrought by climate change, toxic drift, deforestation, oil spills, and the environmental aftermath of war takes place gradually and often invisibly. Using the innovative concept of “slow violence” to describe these threats, Rob Nixon focuses on the inattention we have paid to the attritional lethality of many environmental crises, in contrast with the sensational, spectacle-driven messaging that impels public activism today. Slow violence, because it is so readily ignored by a hard-charging capitalism, exacerbates the vulnerability of ecosystems and of people who are poor, disempowered, and often involuntarily displaced, while fueling social conflicts that arise from desperation as life-sustaining conditions erode.

Nowadays it is hard to hold on to the distinction between landscape and city – the whole planet has become urban. This raises new questions. How can cities defend themselves against climate change? How can you guarantee the supply of drinking water in cities with tens of millions of residents? What can be done about smog choking metropoles? Is food security possible if there is less and less fertile farmland? Rooted City investigates these questions by means of an essay and examples of thirty European cities.

What can the degrowth movement learn from these other movements and the other way around? Which common proposals, but also which contradictions, oppositions and tensions exist? And what alliances could be possible for broader systemic transformations?
