Added to the devastating environmental effect of climate change is the immeasurable and irretrievable loss of ethnic and cultural diversity that occurs when vulnerable local cultures disperse. It is this often forgotten and tragic consequence of global warming that Collectif Argos painstakingly documents.

Résumé:
Jorge Otero-Pailos shows how architectural phenomenology radically transformed how architects engaged, theorized, and produced history. In the first critical intellectual account of the movement, Otero-Pailos discusses the contributions of leading members, including Jean Labatut, Charles Moore, Christian Norberg-Schulz, and Kenneth Frampton. For architects maturing after World War II, Otero-Pailos contends, architectural history was a problem rather than a given. Paradoxically, their awareness of modernism’s historicity led some of them to search for an ahistorical experiential constant that might underpin all architectural expression. They drew from phenomenology, exploring the work of Bachelard, Merleau-Ponty, Heidegger, and Ricoeur, which they translated for architectural audiences. Initially, the concept that experience could be a timeless architectural language provided a unifying intellectual basis for the stylistic pluralism that characterized postmodernism. It helped give theory—especially the theory of architectural history—a new importance over practice. However, as Otero-Pailos makes clear, architectural phenomenologists could not accept the idea of theory as an end in itself. In the mid-1980s they were caught in the contradictory and untenable position of having to formulate their own demotion of theory.

Abigail A. Van Slyck discusses the most visible and evocative aspect of camp life: its landscape and architecture. She argues that summer camps delivered much more than a simple encounter with the natural world.

Résumé:
A rising star in the Russian literary firmament Pelevin, winner of the 1993 Russian Booker Prize for short stories, has written a parody of life under Communism refracted through the prism of the Soviet space program. This clever parable about a young cosmonaut ordered to make the ultimate sacrifice? Killing himself after secretly piloting a supposedly unmanned lunar expedition? is sprinkled with throwaway gags, absurdist humor and wickedly ironic touches, as well as with the eerie beauty of space exploration. Obsessed with space travel since early childhood, Omon Krivomazov identifies with Ra, the ancient Egyptian falcon-headed sun god, a fixation that reflects his desire to escape the gray conformity of Soviet life and his yearning for a soul. Omon learns that more than 100 of his fellow cosmonauts have already been sacrificed as guinea pigs after taking part in supposedly automated, manless launches. Pelevin portrays the Russian space program as a vast propaganda enterprise, a distraction to paper over the tawdriness and fear of everyday life. Many allusions will be lost on American readers. And, in light of the truth-is-stranger-than-fiction state of contemporary Russian society, some of the Soviet-era satire seems oddly tame.

On the Water: Palisade Bay is the collaborative initiative of a group of engineers, architects, landscape architects, planners and students to imagine a "soft infrastructure" for the New York/New Jersey Upper Bay by developing interconnected infrastructures and landscapes which rethink the thresholds of water, land andcity. The proposal is sited on the water, along the coastal edge and within the local communities. It presents a new coastal planning strategy which not only mitigates potential damage from storms but also provides new ground forrecreation, ecologies, agriculture and urban development.With climate change and sea level rise acting as catalysts for this work, a quantitative analysis of dynamic systems serves as the foundation for this new soft infrastructure whichboth enriches the ecology of the urban estuary and creates a vibrant culture on the water.

La conception bioclimatique a pour objectif d'améliorer le confort qu'un espace bâti peut induire de manière naturelle. Elle permet de réduire le recours aux énergies non renouvelables et les coûts d'investissements et de fonctionnement, à l'échelle d'un bâtiment comme à celle d'un quartier. Elle ne se résume pas à la juxtaposition de techniques pour satisfaire les exigences réglementaires, mais cherche à intégrer judicieusement les dispositifs architecturaux dès la conception tout en adaptant le projet à son environnement. S'approprier les connaissances scientifiques et comprendre les phénomènes en jeu permet de mettre en adéquation la conception et la construction d'un bâtiment avec le climat, l'environnement et le mode de vie des usagers. Pour répondre à cet objectif, Concevoir des bâtiments bioclimatiques : explore les propriétés de l'enveloppe et l'impact de la morphologie des bâtiments ; explique les conditions de l'atteinte du confort thermique à l'intérieur des bâtiments ; présente les dispositifs architecturaux actuels (brise-soleil, serres, etc.) ; détaille le rôle du soleil et du vent à l'échelle des espaces urbains. Illustré de schémas et d'exemples, cet ouvrage appuie sa démonstration sur des études de cas de bâtiments situés sous différents climats. Cet ouvrage, accessible à tous les praticiens quel que soit leur niveau de compétence, s'adresse particulièrement aux architectes. Il constitue également un outil de formation pratique pour les techniciens et ingénieurs soucieux de maîtriser un projet environnemental.
