  • Urban Planning Approaches in Divided Cities
    ITU A|Z • Vol 13 No 1 • March 2016 • 139-156 Urban planning approaches in divided cities Gizem CANER1, Fulin BÖLEN2 1 [email protected] • Department of Urban and Regional Planning, Graduate School of Science, Engineering and Technology, Istanbul Technical University, Istanbul, Turkey 2 [email protected] • Department of Urban and Regional Planning, Faculty of Architecture, Istanbul Technical University, Istanbul, Turkey Received: April 2014 • Final Acceptance: December 2015 Abstract This paper provides a comparative analysis of planning approaches in divided cities in order to investigate the role of planning in alleviating or exacerbating urban division in these societies. It analyses four urban areas—Berlin, Beirut, Belfast, Jerusalem—either of which has experienced or still experiences extreme divisions related to nationality, ethnicity, religion, and/or culture. Each case study is investigated in terms of planning approaches before division and after reunifi- cation (if applicable). The relation between division and planning is reciprocal: planning effects, and is effected by urban division. Therefore, it is generally assumed that traditional planning approaches are insufficient and that the recognized engagement meth- ods of planners in the planning process are ineffective to overcome the problems posed by divided cities. Theoretically, a variety of urban scholars have proposed different perspectives on this challenge. In analysing the role of planning in di- vided cities, both the role of planners, and planning interventions are evaluated within the light of related literature. The case studies indicate that even though different planning approaches have different consequences on the ground, there is a universal trend in harmony with the rest of the world in reshaping these cities.

  • FC-Micronesia.Pdf
    The Federated States of Micronesia DIRK ANTHONY BALLENDORF 1 history and development of federalism Micronesia is a collection of island groups in the Pacific Ocean comprised of four major clusters: the Marianas, Carolines, Marshalls, and Gilberts (now known as Kiribati). The Federated States of Micronesia (fsm) is part of the Caroline island archipelago. The fsm consists of the island groups of Chuuk (formerly Truk), Yap, Pohnpei (formerly Ponape) and Kosrae – it is thus a subset of Micronesia writ large. The total land area of the fsm is approximately 700 km, but the islands are spread over 2.5 million km. It has a population of approximately 108,000 people. The history of Micronesia is one of almost continuous exploitation since Ferdinand Magellan first landed briefly in Guam in 1521. Four successive colonial administrations – Spanish, 1521 to 1898; German, 1899 to 1914; Japanese, 1914 to 1944; and American, 1944 to indepen- dence in 1986 – have controlled the many small islands of Micronesia. In 1947, the United States was assigned administration of Microne- sia under a United Nations Trusteeship Agreement. Like previous co- lonial administrations, the American administration was centralized, with Saipan in the northern Marianas as the capital. The Micronesian peoples were divided into six separate administrative districts: Mari- anas, Yap, Palau, Truk (now Chuuk), Ponape (now Pohnpei), and the Marshalls, and they remained largely self-sufficient and isolated from the rest of the world. In 1977, a seventh district, Kosrae, was created from a division of the Ponape district. 217 Federated States of Micronesia Minimal attention was paid by both the United States and the United Nations to US obligations under the un Charter until a un mission to the area during the Kennedy administration drew attention to an extensive list of local complaints.

  • Geographical Characteristics of the State
    Geographical Characteristics of the State The Cultural Mosaic Fellman, and Notes from D.J. Zeigler of Old Dominion Vocab Review • State • Sovereignty • Nation • Nation-state • Binational or Multinational • Stateless Nation • Nationalism Territoriality • The modern state is an example of a common human tendency: the need to belong to a larger group that controls its own piece of the earth, its own territory. • This is called territoriality: a cultural strategy that uses power to control area and communicate that control, subjugating inhabitants and acquiring resources. Shapes of States • Compact States – Efficient – Theoretically round – Capital in center – Shortest possible boundaries to defend – Improved communications – Ex. Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, Poland, Uraguay Shapes of States • Prorupted States – w./large projecting extension – Sometimes natural – Sometimes to gain a resource or advantage, such as to reach water, create a buffer zone – Ex. Thailand, Myanmar, Namibia, Mozambique, Cameroon, Congo Shapes of States • Elongated States – States that are long and narrow – Suffer from poor internal communication – Capital may be isolated – Ex. Chile, Norway, Vietnam, Italy, Gambia Shapes of States • Fragmented States – Several discontinuous pieces of territory – Technically, all states w/off shore islands – Two kinds: separated by water & separated by an intervening state – Exclave – – Ex. Indonesia, USA, Russia, Philippines Shapes of States • Perforated States – A country that completely surrounds another state – Enclave – the surrounded territory – Ex. Lesotho/South Africa, San Marino & Vatican City/Italy Enclaves and exclaves • An enclave is an area surrounded by a country but not ruled by it. – It can be self-governing or an exclave of another country. Example-- Lesotho – Can be problematic for the surrounding country.

  • CONDOMINIUM HOUSING in ETHIOPIA: the Integrated Housing Development Programme
    SUMMARY Since 2005 Ethiopia has been implementing an ambitious government-led low- and middle- income housing programme: The Integrated Housing Development Programme (IHDP) which aims to construct 400,000 housing units, create 200,000 jobs, promote the development of 10,000 micro- and small- enterprises, and enhance the capacity of the construction sector. This authoritative book documents the genesis of the programme and the country’s experience since its inception. As it is intended for policy makers, public sector officials, and urban and housing practitioners, it logically outlines the design of this programme and its effect on the multiple dimensions of housing. Through documenting the Ethiopian experience other developing countries with housing shortages and who face rapid urbanization and population growth can adapt and apply this logic to their own housing systems. In light of Ethiopia’s previously uncoordinated and inefficient housing sector, the Integrated Housing Development Programme has proved to be a highly successful tool for affordable housing delivery at a large scale. Importantly, the programme is not only a housing programme but a wealth generation programme for low-income households. Its success lies in its integrated nature - understanding housing as part of an integrated social, economic, and political system - which has the opportunity to greatly improve the living conditions and economic capacity of all sectors of society.

  • The Unique Case of Winnipeg
    Prairie Perspectives 47 Provincial dominance: the unique case of Winnipeg William R. Horne, Brandon University Abstract: This paper identifies Winnipeg as a unique city within the Canadian urban system. While it is not among the largest cities in Canada, it dominates the province of Manitoba in a way that other capital cities and large cities do not. Statistical evidence for this domination is presented followed by historical reasons for its development. The economic and political effects on Manitoba are discussed. The city should not be discounted because of its decline in position at the national scale. Introduction When one thinks of the most powerful cities in Canada, Toronto, Montreal, Calgary and Vancouver quickly come to mind (McCann and Gunn 1998). At the provincial scale however, there is another city that appears to have more influence over its province than any other Canadian city. That city is Winnipeg. This paper will present evidence from the 2001 Census to support this claim. Four historical explanations for this situation will be argued. A review of provincial-municipal relationships across Canada will demonstrate the unique position of Winnipeg within Manitoba. The political structure of the province will further explain a number of actions taken by the provincial government to increase the economic and social importance of Winnipeg. Collectively, these factors give Winnipeg a unique position among Canadian cities. Much has been written about urban systems and the development of urban hierarchies. Stutz and Warf (2005) review two theories about the development of urban hierarchies. The central place model proposes that urban growth is related to the provision of services to a surrounding urban region.

  • Administrative Divisions
    INFORMATION PAPER Indonesia: Administrative Divisions Indonesia is the world's largest archipelagic state, stretching across both sides of the equator from the city of Banda Aceh at 05° 33' 28" N, 095° 19' 20" E in the west, to the city of Jayapura at 02° 31' 36" S, 140° 42' 51" E in the east. It is made up of over 17,500 islands (of which around 1,000 are permanently settled) strategically located along major sea lanes between the Pacific and Indian Oceans. The capital, Jakarta, is located near the northwestern coast of Jawa (Java). Its islands can be grouped into the Kepulauan Sunda Besar (Greater Sunda Islands) of Sumatera (Sumatra), Jawa, Sulawesi and the southern part of Kalimantan1; the Nusa Tenggara (Lesser Sunda) islands of Bali and a chain of islands that runs eastward through the island of Timor2; the Maluku (Moluccas) islands; and the western part of the island of New Guinea3. Indonesia Languages Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia)4 is the official and most commonly spoken language in Indonesia, and is a modified version of Malay. It is the official language of the government and education. Over 700 local dialects of Indonesian are spoken, the most common of which is Javanese. English is also widely spoken in Indonesia. Administrative Divisions In May 1999, Indonesia embarked on a reform of regional governance5, decentralizing most functions of the government to the rural districts and municipalities and increasing local participation in politics and the economy. The Regional Autonomy Law6 gave authority to two levels of regional government, provinces (provinsi) at the first‐order administrative level (ADM1), and regencies (kabupaten) and 1 Kalimantan is the Indonesian name for the island of Borneo.

  • The Enduring Importance of National Capital Cities in the Global Era
    URBAN AND REGIONAL University of RESEARCH Michigan COLLABORATIVE Working Paper www.caup.umich.edu/workingpapers Series URRC 03-08 The Enduring Importance of National Capital Cities in the Global Era 2003 Scott Campbell Urban and Regional Planning Program College of Architecture and Urban Planning University of Michigan 2000 Bonisteel Blvd. Ann Arbor, MI 48109-2069 [email protected] Abstract: This paper reports on the early results of a longer comparative project on capital cities. Specifically, it examines the changing role of national capital cities in this apparent global era. Globalization theory suggests that threats to the monopoly power of nation-states and the rise of a transnational network of global economic cities are challenging the traditional centrality of national capital cities. Indeed, both the changing status of nation-states and the restructuring world economy will reshuffle the current hierarchy of world cities, shift the balance of public and private power in capitals, and alter the current dominance of capitals as the commercial and governmental gateway between domestic and international spheres. However, claims in globalization theory that a new transnational system of global cities will make national boundaries, national governments and national capitals superfluous, albeit theoretically provocative, are arguably both ahistorical and improvident. Though one does see the spatial division of political and economic labor in some modern countries, especially in federations (e.g., Washington-New York; Ottawa-Toronto; Canberra-Sydney; Brasilia-Sao Paolo), the more common pattern is still the co- location of government and commerce (e.g., London, Paris, Tokyo, Seoul, Cairo). The emergence of global cities is intricately tied to the rise of nation-states -- and thus to the capital cities that govern them.

  • How to Run for Local Office
    How to Run for Local Office A Workshop Offered by the Juneau League of Women Voters, City & Borough of Juneau, and Juneau Votes! Saturday, July 18, 2020 9 am – 1:30 pm Virtual Workshop on Zoom League of Women Voters® of Juneau In Cooperation with the City and Borough of Juneau, the Juneau School District, the Alaska Division of Elections and the Alaska Public Offices Commission How to Run for Local Office Tool Kit INTRODUCTION You can make a difference in our community! And it’s not that hard…. Or, to put it another way, “Many hands make light work.” The City Borough of Juneau is one of only four unified home-rule boroughs (consolidated city/county functions) in the state of Alaska. As such it has a great deal of local control and autonomy. All who live here depend on engaged citizens - dedicated and competent community leaders –who are willing to step forward and serve either in elective office or on one or more of Juneau’s 30 appointed public bodies.1 Whatever the office, our public institutions are stronger when voters have a choice of candidates to represent them. Democracy works only when enough citizens have the courage and determination to run for, and hold, public office. Regardless of whether you are thinking about running for election this year, or perhaps at some unspecified time in the future, this Tool Kit provides information for the reader about how to get elected as well as more about what it takes to carry out the responsibilities of holding elective office.
