Book Description
Internet ha cambiado nuestras vidas pero todavía no ha cambiado nuestras ciudades. Toda revolución tecnológica lleva emparejadas transformaciones radicales en las formas de vida. Si la era del automóvil y el petróleo conformó las ciudades del siglo XX, la sociedad de la información configurará las del siglo XXI. Es una evolución imparable que, sin embargo, hay que saber conducir con criterio. Se trata de aprovechar las experiencias urbanas acumuladas durante siglos por los humanos y tener presente que el crecimiento no puede ser ilimitado y que los recursos energéticos que ofrece nuestro planeta tienen fecha de caducidad. Vicente Guallart expone este fascinante proceso en un libro cargado de ideas, datos y propuestas.En calidad de observador, de pensador y de pionero de la arquitectura del futuro, Guallart propone la regeneración de las ciudades (de la vivienda a la metrópolis) para impulsar una nueva economía de la innovación urbana. Un camino con destino a la autosuficiencia local en materia de recursos y a la conectividad global en materia de conocimiento e información. Porque la autosuficiencia conectada hace que las ciudades y las personas que las habitan sean más fuertes, libres e independientes.

Book Description
Globally, Smart Cities initiatives are pursued which reproduce the interests of capital and neoliberal government, rather than wider public good. This book explores smart urbanism and 'the right to the city', examining citizenship, social justice, commoning, civic participation, and co-creation to imagine a different kind of Smart City.

Book Description
In a world facing global crisis after crisis, a new approach to urban development is emerging. This book is the result of three years of iterative research which explores the ways in which technology, community, and urban design can work together to create more sustainable and productive cities. The book offers insights into how enabling technologies and citizen empowerment are leading to new economic models and a collaborative culture. Through an in-depth analysis of the city of Rome, the research demonstrates how a focus on community building and new urban models can lead to more sustainable, resilient, and productive cities. The outcome of the research is a hyper-local tool that enables bottom-up initiatives to respond to specific needs and help develop new economies. This approach, combined with top-down initiatives from administrations could be useful for further creation of proposals that precisely address community needs. Findings of the research will be useful for policymakers, urban planners, makers, designers, and citizens who want to design and advocate for sustainable urban development models and thriving neighborhoods. With its practical insights and real-world examples, this book offers a roadmap for building more resilient and sustainable cities in the 21st century.

Book Description
MAD works in forward-looking environments developing futuristic architecture based on a contemporary interpretation of the eastern spirit of nature. All of MAD's projects - from residential complexes or offices to cultural centres - desire to protect a sense of community and orientation toward nature, offering people the freedom to develop their own experience. Founded in 2004 by Ma Yansong, the office first earned worldwide attention in 2006 by winning an international competition to design a residential tower near Toronto, expected to be completed in the summer of 2012. MAD has been commissioned by clients of all backgrounds, leading to an intriguing combination of diverse project designs. MAD's ongoing projects include two major cultural projects in Harbin: the China Wood Sculpture Museum and Harbin Culture Island, an opera house and cultural center that will retain the original wetlands as an urban park between the old and new city. MAD is led by Ma Yansong, Dang Qun and Yosuke Hayano. They have been awarded the Young Architecture Award from the New York Institute of Architects in 2006 and the 2011 RIBA international fellowship.
Book Description
Entrañable mirada ésta de la gran ciudad de México, descrita con destreza y oficio por Miriam Mabel Martínez a quien ya no le sorprende la forma en la que este monstruo de concreto ha crecido, sino la cantidad y diversidad de ópticas bajo las que puede caminarse. Con el olfato periodístico de una mujer que lo mismo puede describirnos la calle en donde se filmó Pepe El Toro, que defender los argumentos de grandes pensadores franceses contemporáneos, Miriam nos recuerda que, para bien o para mal, existen mil y un formas de vivir y escribir sobre la ciudad y sus multifacéticos personajes.

Book Description
The Political Ecology of Austerity explores the environmental dimension of austerity that has thus far escaped academic, policy, and media attention. Offering a better comprehension of the full socio-environmental impact of austerity measures, the book highlights the importance of considering environmental issues when designing responses to economic crisis in the future. Mobilising detailed case studies from across the world, the volume documents the ways in which austerity impacts global and local ecologies, shapes environmental conflicts and gives rise to new forms and practices of social moblisation and resistance. Bringing together theoretical debates and rigorous case studies, the book proposes ‘the political ecology of austerity’ as an appropriate method of analysis that can inform our understanding of the shift in environmental protection policies and the intensification of growth practices (green or otherwise) that followed the 2008 global economic crisis. The Political Ecology of Austerity discloses austerity to be a globalised set of tools not only for budgetary discipline, but also for socio-environmental discipline that justifies the continuation of capital accumulation at the expense of further global environmental degradation. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of social and political sciences, environmental studies, urban studies, and political ecology.

Book Description
The smart city movement, during the last decade and a half, advocated the built environment and digital technology convergence with the backing of institutional capital and government support. The commitment of a significant number of local governments across the globe, in terms of official smart city policies and initiatives, along with the constant push of global technology giants, has reinforced the popularity of this movement. This two-volume treatment on smart cities thoroughly explores and sheds light on the prominent elements of the smart city phenomenon and generates a smart city blueprint. The first volume, with its 12 chapters, provides a sound understanding on the key foundations and growth directions of smart city frameworks, technologies, and platforms, with theoretical expansions, practical implications, and real-world case study lessons. The second companion volume offers sophisticated perspectives on the key foundations and directions of smart city policies, communities, and urban futures, with theoretical expansions, practical implications, and real-world case study lessons. These volumes offer an invaluable reference source for urban policymakers, managers, planners, practitioners, and many others, particularly to benefit from it when tackling key urban and societal issues and planning for and delivering smart city solutions. Moreover, the book is also a rich and important repository for scholars and research and undergraduate students.

Book Description
La proliferación de huertos urbanos en las ciudades no es un fenómeno circunstancial: responde a una serie de necesidades económicas, urbanísticas, ambientales y sociales que reflejan un cambio profundo en la concepción de la ciudad y en su relación con el entorno agrícola. El presente estudio analiza la situación actual de la agricultura urbana y aporta propuestas metodológicas concretas para introducir el cultivo agrícola en la ciudad y en los edificios. Tras abordar la relación entre agricultura y sostenibilidad, el libro describe la experiencia de algunas ciudades que han introducido con éxito la agricultura en la planificación urbana (Viena, Toronto, La Habana, Rosario, Barcelona y Girona) y proporciona una serie de criterios y estrategias de actuación en los ámbitos del urbanismo y la construcción. Pensado como guía básica para conocer y desarrollar proyectos de agricultura urbana, el libro se dirige a arquitectos, paisajistas y urbanistas, así como a todas aquellas personas interesadas en los huertos urbanos.
