While this kind ofnews story would often be ignored as just another example ofthe Chinese government destroying cultural history in the name ofprogress, the story of Qianmen had a new twist. Not only was Qianmen a protected heritage area under a 2002 Beijing Municipal Government Conservation Plan, but the destruction was said to have happened because ofthe upcoming 2008 Summer Olympic Games. Was the development ofQianmen in step with Olympic ideals and sustainable development? This thesis explores the sustainable development agenda ofthe International Olympic Committee, Agenda 21, in order to analyze the agenda, its impact in driving development policies in host cities Sydney, Australia and Beijing, China, and to what v extent planners incorporated historic preservation into Olympic development policies in both cities.

  • Giovanni Polazzi
    GIOVANNI POLAZZI After graduating in architecture with top marks from the University of Florence, Polazzi obtained his PhD in architectural and urban planning at the same University with a dissertation titled “Raffaello Fagnoni Florentine Architect – Analysis of a career divided between teaching and professional activities”. In 1988 he founded the Archea firm, conducting planning and research in the fields of architecture, town planning and industrial design. Didactic activities In the course of the years Polazzi has been professor under contract at the architecture faculty of the University of Genoa where he has taught interior architecture, and at the architecture faculty of Parma where he has taught architectural planning. At present he holds a professorship at the architecture faculty of the University of Florence, heading ‘architecture planning workshop I’. His didactic activities are developed through a close relationship between theoretic lessons and development of design in the classroom, with the purpose of investigating the relationship between the compositive idea and the architectural theme. The courses aim to reach, together with the student, the definition of an architectural project in every part, representing it from the scale of the landscape to the details.
