Résumé:
Loin d'être une simple évaluation des effets sociaux de l'aménagement, la réception sociale de l'urbanisme ne peut être intelligible qu'inscrite dans les rapports entre les conditions de production de l'espace et sa recomposition sociale. L'appropriation de l'espace par les individus révèle en dernière instance le processus de recomposition sociale spécifique et subséquent à une opération d'aménagement. Au contact de la nouvelle organisation urbaine, les individus transforment leur façon de se comporter dans l'espace urbain, en même temps qu'ils font évoluer les représentations et les valeurs accrochées aux lieux. Se superpose ainsi à l'espace conçu un système complexe d'usages et de significations qui résulte des opérations de rectification, d'ajustement et de réinterprétation des dispositions spatiales par la population. Ainsi, mieux cerner la demande sociale en matière d'urbanisme suppose un renversement de perspective ; un changement de posture de la part des professionnels de l'urbanisme et de leurs mandants qui permettrait de percevoir les effets proprement sociaux de l'instrumentalisation de l'espace.

Walking the streets of London Iain Sinclair traces nine routes across the territory of the capital. Connecting people and places, redrawing boundaries both ancient and modern, reading obscure signs and divining hidden patterns, Sinclair creates a fluid snapshot of the city. In "Lights Out for the Territory" he gives us a daring, provocative, enlightening, disturbing and utterly unique picture of modern urban life. And in the process he reveals the dark underbelly of a London many of us did not know existed.

Résumé:
In 1958, the first edition of Robert Frank's The Americanswas published in Paris. Les Americains contained Frank's 83 photographs in the same sequence as all subsequent editions, with the image on the right hand page, but juxtaposed with historical texts about American society and politics, gathered by Alain Bosquet. The following year, in the first American edition, the French texts were removed and an introduction by Jack Kerouac was added. Over the subsequent 50 years, The Americans has been republished in many editions, in numerous languages, with a variety of cover designs, and even in a range of sizes. It is the most famous photography book ever published, and it changed the face of the medium forever. Robert Frank discussed with his publisher, Gerhard Steidl, the idea of producing a new edition using modernscanning and the finest tritone printing. The starting point was to bring original prints from New York to Gottingen, Germany, where Steidl is based. In July 2007, Frank visited Gottingen. A new format for the book was worked out and new typography selected. A new cover was designed and Frank chose the book cloth, foil for embossing, and the endpaper. Most significantly, as he has done for every edition of The Americans, Frank changed the cropping of many of the photographs, usually including more information. Two images were changed completely from the original 1958 and 1959 editions.
