The congress was organized as a collaboration between Tampere University of Technology and the University of Tampere, and with a total of 81 participants arriving from all continents and around 20 countries. As the congress was designed to provide an interdisciplinary forum for researchers and practitio- ners from various fields, the participants represented urban planning, architecture, traffic planning and logistics, urban history, economics and business, political science, the social sciences and the humanities. The word “regeneration” implies that cities today have problems with regard to, for instance, aesthetics, growth, citizen participation and functionality. Solving these challenges, that is, “city regeneration”, requires a greater awareness from citizens and governing institutions. One particular aim of the congress was to ascertain how this can be achieved and how different disciplines in planning practice or urban research can be combined within the context of city regeneration. The topic was, of course, highly multi-disciplinary, but at the same time it allowed a wide range of approaches concerning the regeneration of future cities. The congress was organised around the following five themes: Theme A: Urban regenerative strategies, methods and tools Theme B: Mobility and urban planning in city regeneration Theme C: Economics and power in city regeneration Theme D: Citizens and their milieu in city regeneration Theme E: The 3Rs in city regeneration (rehabilitation, reconstruction, renovation) INTRODUCTION 7 The spring 2015 call for abstracts invited new approaches to these themes. Over 80 abstracts were submitted and almost half of them were presented in the congress. The scientific committee consisted of 13 peer reviewers representing different sciences. The members of the committee also made recommendations for the papers to be included in the present publication. Several criteria were used in selecting the articles, including the paper’s overall quality, scientific value, novelty value, clarity, international appeal, how it matches the congress theme and other accepted papers, and how ready it is for publication. Conse- quently, there were many excellent congress papers that could not be accepted for publication. The end result is a publication with 12 articles from different sci- ences, and gathered together under three sections. Section One, Cities’ Growing Pains, emphasizes the problems of city growth or the lack of growth. In this section, examples from the United States, Finland and Poland also tackle economic issues. Section Two, Managing City Regeneration, includes examples from India, Latin America, Spain and Finland. As a whole, this section shows how different – and also how similar – the issues of city regeneration are in these different countries. Section Three takes a look at the future under the theme Shaping the Future City. All the articles in this section are rather different from each other, which only confirms the complexity of city regeneration and the need for different approaches. SECTION ONE: CITIES’ GROWING PAINS In his paper, Lance Owen, a PhD student from the University of Califor- nia, Berkeley, USA, examines the Country Club Plaza district in Kansas City. The Plaza is an apartment and retail district built originally as early as 1922-1930 and ranked by many historians as the first suburban shopping centre in the USA. Owen offers an interesting view of a highly important area development during the roaring 20s and shows, quite surprisingly, that all the main elements of area development we have today existed already in Kansas City almost one hundred years ago. His viewpoint is thus a historical one and serves well as a starter in the publication. According to Owen, “To build better cities of the future, we should examine the suburbs of the past – not for their shortcomings, but rather the opposite.” Urban regeneration researchers and urban planners often deal with the infill of growing and wealthy areas. In their paper, university teach- er Hanna Kosunen, post-doctoral researcher Sari Hirvonen-Kantola 8 FUTURE CITY — COMBINING DISCIPLINES and Professor Helka-Liisa Hentilä from the University of Oulu, Fin- land, show that urban infill is even more problematic in areas with a low market interest. Private developers are not very interested in these areas because of the low profits and the various stakeholders involved in the development projects. The authors concentrate on three urban regeneration strategies (state-led, property-led and community-led) and demonstrate how prevailing political ideologies affect urban re- generation. They also call for the integration of these three strategies. The article by Jaakko Vihola and Antti Kurvinen, PhD students from Tampere University of Technology, Finland, contributes to the ongoing debate on whether infill development (building urban environment within existing urban areas) is more profitable than greenfield devel- opment (building urban environment outside of existing urban areas). The authors present three case studies in Tampere: two infill develop- ments and one greenfield development. Even if public transportation economics or state subsidies are not included in the calculations, the outcome is still convincing. The article supports the claim that urban infill is far more profitable than greenfield development, at least from the municipal economy point of view. It is easy to agree with the au- thors’ conclusion, namely that this fact should certainly be taken into consideration in political decision making. Jakub Zasina, a PhD student from the University of Łódź, Poland, shows in his data analysis of the 51 largest Polish cities how the number of small and non-traditional households has increased in the majority of urban areas, even if the total population has decreased. This is a significant issue not only in Poland, but also elsewhere. This second demographic transition, as the phenomenon is known in academic dis- course, is very familiar at least in developed countries. It includes many demographic changes, such as the deinstitutionalization of the nuclear family, the decline in the fertility rate, the delay in childbearing and postponement of marriage. Zasina also assumes that a higher propor- tion of small households may result in a more compact urban form, because the inhabitants of these households favour the urban amenities of city centres. For contemporary cities this development can affect significant economic changes as well as transformations in city form.

  • The Double in Late Nineteenth-Century Italian Literature: Readings in Fogazzaro and His Contemporaries
    The Double in Late Nineteenth-Century Italian Literature: Readings in Fogazzaro and His Contemporaries Samuel Fleck Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2017 © 2017 Samuel Fleck All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Double in Late Nineteenth-Century Italian Literature: Readings in Fogazzaro and His Contemporaries Samuel Fleck This dissertation is organized around main axes: the literary and critical concept of the Double and the analysis of Antonio Fogazzaro’s 1881 novel, Malombra, in which the Double plays a complex thematic role. In the first chapter, I address the concept of the Double as a critical category, assessing its meaning across three different levels of reality: in terms of the cultural specificity of the representation (the nineteenth century and Romantic literature), in terms of the theoretical approach (whether it is construed as a transcendental figure, as in Freudian theory, or a transgressive figure, as in Jungian theory, etc.) and in terms of its placement relative to the other themes in the text. In the second chapter, I take up the analysis of three Italian texts from the second half of the nineteenth century which privilege the theme of the Double and invest it with idiosyncratic meaning: Uno spirito in un lampone by Iginio Ugo Tarchetti (1867), Due anime in un corpo by Emilio de Marchi (1877) and Le storie del castello di Trezza by Giovanni Verga (1875). My reading of these texts draws on diverse psychoanalytic perspectives, namely those of Jung, Lacan and Abraham and Torok.

They’re playing defense with verve and creativity—blocking ugly and destructive projects that wreck landscapes and lives. And defense is crucial. As generations of sports coaches have delighted in pointing out, defense wins games. But we’re very far behind in the global warming game, so we need some offense too. And here’s what offense looks like: going directly after the fossil fuel industry and holding it accountable for the rapid warming of the planet. It’s the richest and most arrogant industry the world has ever seen. Call it Powersandprincipalities, Inc. And where once it served a real social need—energy— it now stands squarely in the way of getting that energy from safe, renewable sources. Its business plan—sell more coal, gas and oil—is at odds with what every climate scientist now says is needed for planetary survival. If that sounds shocking, sorry: a lifetime of Exxon ads haven’t prepared us for the reality that Exxon is a first-class villain, any more than a lifetime of looking at the Marlboro Man prepared us to understand lung cancer.

PREFACE For over forty years a band of devoted men and women have been toiling in an obscure field on the west coast of Africa. In their schools they have trained for usefulness several hundred of the youth, and have gathered over six thousand converts into native churches. Early in May, 1898, a heathen mob, displeased at the rapid progress of Christian civilization, and angry over the just requirements of the British Government, swept like a fierce hurricane over this mission field and the surrounding country, murdering seven American mis sionaries, many native pastors, and several hundred con verts, and burning the mission property. This little volume tells the story by those personally familiar with it. It also gives assurance that neither the burning fevers of the climate nor the blazing fagots and fiercer fury of the " war boys" shall prevent our complet ing the divinely appointed task in Sierra Leone.
