  • Dear Secretary Salazar: I Strongly
    Dear Secretary Salazar: I strongly oppose the Bush administration's illegal and illogical regulations under Section 4(d) and Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act, which reduce protections to polar bears and create an exemption for greenhouse gas emissions. I request that you revoke these regulations immediately, within the 60-day window provided by Congress for their removal. The Endangered Species Act has a proven track record of success at reducing all threats to species, and it makes absolutely no sense, scientifically or legally, to exempt greenhouse gas emissions -- the number-one threat to the polar bear -- from this successful system. I urge you to take this critically important step in restoring scientific integrity at the Department of Interior by rescinding both of Bush's illegal regulations reducing protections to polar bears.

  • The Dissolving Corporation
    THE DISSOLVING CORPORATION Contemporary Architecture and Corporate Identity in Finland Peter MacKeith www.eva.fi EVA´s homepage contains reports, articles and other material in Finnish and in English. Publisher: Taloustieto Oy Cover: Antti Eklund Printing: Yliopistopaino 2005 ISBN 951-628-424-8 PREFACE In the past few years, the Finnish Business and Policy Forum EVA has treated the issues of creativity and business-culture interaction with growing interest. This report is an extension of the June, 2004 EVA conference on “Creativity through Competitiveness” and is published in co-operation with the Creative Finland Association. Entertaining a subject quite different from past EVA report themes, this essay offers one perspective on the state of Finnish corporate architecture within the more general context of corporate management practices and ar- chitectural innovations. In this report, Professor Peter MacKeith argues that in the contempora- ry moment of global, open-market economies, Finnish architecture is at a critical juncture. This condition is reflected precisely in recent headquarters architecture produced by Finnish corporations. Whereas a hundred years ago corporate headquarters were central elements of the surrounding cultural and urban environment, expressing values of the emerging national consciousness, today’s Finnish corporate headquar- ters have adopted a style of neutrality and anonymity, and situated themselves outside of the public realm. Professor MacKeith calls for a corporate architecture that takes into account issues of sustainable de- velopment and the corporation’s relationship to the society, culture and civic realm in which it is physically situated. Along with the desired image and values communicated by a building’s form to the outside world, corporate office planning has also adopted new objectives.

Why this slavish devotion to Design and aspiration, the skeptic asks, when mean, sipping white wine from a plastic tumbler. We had just walked over from a late afternoon meeting at the Rubin cost-driven functionalism is all that’s being asked for. Architects don’t have too many venues to discuss what makes architecture meaningful, how to “practice” in a world determined to bury aspiration under mandates, and me-tooism.
