Rethinking Nature
Author: Aurélie Choné
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1315444747
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
Contemporary ideas of nature were largely shaped by schools of thought from Western cultural history and philosophy until the present-day concerns with environmental change and biodiversity conservation. There are many different ways of conceptualising nature in epistemological terms, reflecting the tensions between the polarities of humans as masters or protectors of nature and as part of or outside of nature. The book shows how nature is today the focus of numerous debates, calling for an approach which goes beyond the merely technical or scientific. It adopts a threefold – critical, historical and cross-disciplinary – approach in order to summarise the current state of knowledge. It includes contributions informed by the humanities (especially history, literature and philosophy) and social sciences, concerned with the production and circulation of knowledge about "nature" across disciplines and across national and cultural spaces. The volume also demonstrates the ongoing reconfiguration of subject disciplines, as seen in the recent emergence of new interdisciplinary approaches and the popularity of the prefix "eco-" (e.g. ecocriticism, ecospirituality, ecosophy and ecofeminism, as well as subdivisions of ecology, including urban ecology, industrial ecology and ecosystem services). Each chapter provides a concise overview of its topic which will serve as a helpful introduction to students and a source of easy reference. This text is also valuable reading for researchers interested in philosophy, sociology, anthropology, geography, ecology, politics and all their respective environmentalist strands.

Ecological Transition in Education and Research
Author: Hassan Ait Haddou
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1786307162
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
This book centers on climate change, a pressing issue in the ecological transition, particularly for landscape and architecture schools. The scientific realities and consequences of this phenomenon are becoming increasingly well-known and it is now evident that architecture, urban planning and landscaping all have the potential to mitigate these consequences. Ecological Transition in Education and Research is a multidisciplinary collective work, intended to raise awareness of adaptation and mitigation strategies such as action-research, educational innovations and concrete transition practices that embrace different schools of thought. The overall goal is to promote educational practices and research on climate change.

From Urban National Parks to Natured Cities in the Global South
Author: Frédéric Landy
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9811084629
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
This important volume focuses on the sensitive issue of interrelationships between national parks situated near or within urban areas and their urban environment. It engages with both urban and conservation issues and and compares four national parks located in four large cities in the global South: Rio de Janeiro, Cape Town, Mumbai, and Nairobi. Though primarily undertaken as academic research, the project has intensively collaborated with the institutions in charge of these parks. The comparative structure of this volume is also original and unique: each of the chapters incorporates insight from all four sites as far as possible.The term “naturbanity” expresses the necessity for cities endowed with a national park to integrate it into their functioning. Conversely, such parks must take into account their location in an urban environment, both as a source of heavy pressures on nature and as a nexus of incentives to support their conservation. The principle of non-exclusivity, that is, neither the city nor the park has a right nor even the possibility to negate the other’s presence, summarizes the main argument of this book. Naturbanity thus blurs the old “modern” dichotomy of nature/culture: animals and human beings can often jump the physical and ideological walls separating many parks from the adjacent city. The 13 chapters and substantive introduction of this volume discuss various aspects of naturbanity: the histories of park creation; interaction between people and parks; urban governance and parks; urban conservation models; wildlife management; environmental education; and so on. This is a must-read for students and researchers interested in social ecology, social geography, conservation, urban planning and ecological policy.

Garden Cities and Town Planning
Villes et politiques urbaines au Canada et aux Etats-Unis
Author: Université de Paris III. Centre d'études canadiennes de la Sorbonne nouvelle
Publisher: Presses Sorbonne Nouvelle
ISBN: 9782878541496
Category : Cities and towns
Languages : fr
Pages : 322
Book Description
L'analyse de l'évolution de la ville nord-américaine, surtout depuis les années 1960, permet d'identifier les maux actuels, d'étudier les solutions envisageables et d'évaluer les enjeux sociaux, économiques, urbanistiques et politiques. La perspective comparative a été volontairement privilégiée car elle permet de mieux dégager la spécificité de la ville canadienne. La comparaison est essentiellement centrée sur le Canada et les États-Unis mais n'exclut pas quelques allusions au modèle britannique. Trois avenues disciplinaires ont été privilégiées, celle qui relève du politique, celle qui relève du sociologique et celle qui a trait aux disciplines liées à l'étude et à l'aménagement de l'espace (pour cette dernière, trois axes ou trois niveaux d'analyse ont été retenus et traitent de l'organisation de l'espace, du fonctionnement de l'économie et de la gestion politique tant au niveau national/fédéral que régional ou local). On constate les signes d'une évidente évolution, qu'il s'agisse du passage du semi-social au pénal, c'est-à-dire d'un système de protection à un système de pénalisation ou bien encore du passage de la sphère publique à celle du privé et, enfin, d'une dévolution de pouvoirs qui transfère les responsabilités du niveau central à l'échelon local. On est ainsi passé de la phase de la réglementation par le sommet à une phase de désengagement qui permet les initiatives de la base et du socio-communautaire. Le bilan d'ensemble est à la fois clair et plutôt sombre. Face à l'affaiblissement de la notion de responsabilité collective, l'Impression dominante est de se trouver de plus en plus face à des problèmes sans issue, sans solution mais il est vital de ne pas abandonner. Notre volonté également partagée doit être celle de bâtir la cité idéale, même si cela peut relever de l'utopie. L'ère des illusions et des attentes déçues a conduit à celle du soupçon et de l'impatience. Nous aimerions pouvoir entretenir encore l'Illusion ultime que le progrès est possible. Ce n'est qu'à ce prix que la ville cessera d'être le monde de la barbarie pour devenir celui de la civilisation.
