Résumé:
Robert Barnett offers an exploration of a city long idealized, disregarded, or misunderstood by outsiders. Looking to its streets and stone, Barnett presents a searching portrait of Lhasa, its history, and its illegibility. It only offers itself as a manual for thinking about contemporary Tibet but also questions our ways of thinking about foreign places.

Résumé:
The Urban Spectator is a lively and utterly fascinating exploration of the ways in which technologies have influenced our collective conception of the American city, as well as our relationship with urban space and architecture. Eric Gordon argues that the city, developing late and in conjunction with a range of modern media, produced a particular way of seeing--what he labels "possessive spectatorship." Lacking the historical rootedness of European cities, the American city was open to individual interpretation, definition, and ownership. Beginning with the White City of the Chicago World's Fair of 1893 and the efforts to commodify the concept city through photography, Gordon shows how the American city has always been a product of the collision between the dominant conceptualization, shaped by contemporary media, and the spectator. From the viewfinder of the Kodak camera, to the public display of early cinema, to the speculative desire of network radio, all the way to machine-age utopianism, nostalgia, and America's "rerun" culture, the city is an amalgam of practice and concept. All of this comes to a head in the "database city" where urban spectatorship takes on the characteristics of a Google search. In new urban developments, the spectator searches, retrieves, and combines urban references to construct each experience of the city.

Résumé:
Au moment où les marchés immobiliers se retournent, où nous vivons une crise financière mondiale sans précédent, ce livre fait le point sur les mutations profondes d'un secteur incontournable de notre société et de notre économie.Comment les différents acteurs immobiliers produisent-ils nos villes, nos quartiers et nos immeubles, nos logements, nos bureaux et nos commerces? Dans le contexte de financiarisation des marchés immobiliers, l'immeuble est désormais un actif financier semblable aux actions et obligations. De nouvelles institutions et de nouveaux métiers sont nés pour s'adapter à cette évolution du bien immobilier. Le bâtiment est par ailleurs un secteur clé dans le cadre des défis environnementaux. L'entrée en vigueur du protocole de Kyoto sur la réduction des émissions de gaz à effet de serre depuis 2005, puis la mise en place du Grenelle de l'environnement marquent le début d'une révolution verte à laquelle le secteur immobilier est stratégiquement associé. De la finance au développement durable, cet ouvrage aide à comprendre les nouveaux enjeux de l'immobilier.

L'urbanisation planétaire, avec les centres commerciaux, le tourisme de masse, le mobilier urbain, les enclaves sécurisées, etc., transforme les usages des espaces publics et les uniformise.

Recognizing that our civic responsibilities towards our environments have drastically increased, Visionary Cities ambitiously sets the agenda for the city of the future. Amid crippling bureaucracies and economic crises, present-day thinking on city design remains woefully inadequate, and this first publication in NAi's Future Cities Series announces 12 civic issues that are in need of transformation through the researches of The Why Factory, a global urban-studies thinktank operated in part by the Delft University of Technology. These issues include: “The Solitary (Our Dreams are Undermining the City)”; “The Iconic (Our Idols Have Been Compromised)”; “The Fun (We Are Having Too Much Fun)”; “The Cautious (Being Careful Is Killing Us)”; “The Poor (Slums Are Growing Bigger Than The Cities They Are Part Of”; and “The Future (Our Future Is Being Imagined Without Us).” A howl against civic impotence and the apathy of citizens in the face of incompetence and decay, Visionary Cities makes a manifesto of these and other topics to loudly demand large-scale change on a collective rather than individual level. In an afterword, Winy Maas, of the innovative Dutch architecture firm MVRDV, argues that architecture possesses a visionary dimension waiting to be applied to the cities of the future.

These ideals were realized in the design of public buildings, streets and squares, as well as in films, literature and the visual arts. Urban planning under Eastern European Socialism is consequently inseparable from its ideological aspirations, and while its governmental structure may have collapsed, its architectural expressions remain. Over the last decade, however, many classic buildings of this era have been stripped of their political import, being repurposed or even destroyed. The Post Socialist City reveals that many cities across Eastern Europe remain dominated by the industrial complexes and panel buildings erected by Socialism, and analyzes the implications of the uses to which they have subsequently been put.

Résumé:
This publication is a comprehensive reader analysing the role of modern architecture, city planning and consumption in the construction of the Swedish welfare state. The book draws mainly from the formative phase of the Swedish model, but also on European and American examples, and attempts to highlight the contradictions and complexities of the process of modernisation. The book provides an in-depth, multilayered account of the process of modernisation; whilst also highlighting the difficulties found. The debate is enriched from a diverse range of contributors including architects, researchers and leading academics from across the globe. It includes an introduction from Helena Mattsson and Sven-Olov Wallenstein and contributions from academics from New York’s Columbia University and London’s UCL; alongside architects in the field. The essays explore the construction of the welfare state, contextualising this in relation to the political and social factors of the time, consumers and spectacles — from housing to national marketing programmes. Specific case studies are featured and the reader ends with a section dealing with the more general problem of historiography.
