Résumé:
Author China Miéville delivers an existential thriller set in a city unlike any other – real or imagined. When a murdered woman is found in the city of Beszel, somewhere at the edge of Europe, it looks to be a routine case for Inspector Tyador Borlú of the Extreme Crime Squad. But as he investigates, the evidence points to conspiracies far stranger and more deadly than anything he could have imagined. Borlú must travel from the decaying Beszel to the only metropolis on Earth as strange as his own. This is a border crossing like no other, a journey as psychic as it is physical, a shift in perception, a seeing of the unseen. His destination is Beszel’s equal, rival, and intimate neighbor, the rich and vibrant city of Ul Qoma. With Ul Qoman detective Qussim Dhatt, and struggling with his own transition, Borlú is enmeshed in a sordid underworld of rabid nationalists intent on destroying their neighboring city, and unificationists who dream of dissolving the two into one. As the detectives uncover the dead woman’s secrets, they begin to suspect a truth that could cost them and those they care about more than their lives. What stands against them are murderous powers in Beszel and in Ul Qoma: and, most terrifying of all, that which lies between these two cities. Casting shades of Kafka and Philip K. Dick, Raymond Chandler and 1984, "The City & the City" is a murder mystery taken to dazzling metaphysical and artistic heights.

Most of the projects in this book consist of no more than a few key spaces, in many cases just a single space. They are united only by their compact nature, the pleasure that they can provide, and the intelligence that they embody. A brief introduction is followed by five thematic chapters: Public Realm, Community Spaces, On the Move, Compact Living, and Extra Space. The 53 case studies include a park bench that transforms into a shelter for the homeless in Australia, an inflatable treetop structure for rainforest observation, a portable house for victims of hurricane Katrina, a transportable church in Finland, and a suspended office in France.

Elles tentent d'éviter l'écueil consistant à présenter ce domaine aux yeux du grand public comme une valeur culturelle fondée soit sur la dimension patrimoniale, soit sur les prouesses techniques des grands ouvrages d'art, ou encore sur la dimension événementielle de certaines réalisations qui se prêtent aux jeux des caméras et deviennent de parfaits décors pour le fond d'écran des journaux télévisés. Ce texte est destiné à initier une démarche personnelle, à stimuler la curiosité du lecteur en introduisant l'architecture par son versant sensible et émotionnel. Il s'adresse aux curieux, amoureux des villes, des parcs et des jardins, à ceux qui aiment le paysage, ceux qui n'hésitent pas à quitter leur espace domestique pour se perdre dans l'espace urbain.

Résumé:
Luc Rabouin offre aux citoyens le moyen de se réapproprier le pouvoir local en leur proposant, entre autres, un guide pratique pour l’établissement d’un budget participatif municipal. Qu’est-ce qu’un budget participatif ? Cette exercice démocratique, inventé à Porto Alegre, au Brésil, permet la participation de l’ensemble des citoyens à la gestion des finances publiques. Cette manière de concevoir et de vivre la démocratie, qui repose sur l’implication du citoyen ordinaire, est à l’origine de pratiques novatrices qui remettent l’être humain au centre de la politique. En témoignent avec éloquence l’exemple de Porto Alegre, mais aussi, plus près de nous, l’expérience récente de l’arrondissement du Plateau-Mont-Royal, à Montréal. Cet ouvrage procède à un examen lucide de ces expériences pour y trouver, par-delà leurs lacunes, une réponse positive aux crises sociales et environnementales qui nous affectent.
