Vicente González Loscertales, Secrétaire Général du Bureau International des Expositions Cette année, le Bureau International des Exposition a choisi de consacrer son Bulletin annuel au thème: « Le legs intellectuel des Expos - La Tribune de l’Eau, Expo 2008 Zaragoza » Le legs des Expos est un des éléments les plus importants qui permet à celle-ci de faire perdurer leur message international bien après leur clôture. C’est pourquoi nous avons décidé de dédier ce numéro du Bulletin au legs de l’Expo 2008 Zaragoza, à la Tribune de l’Eau et au legs des Expos futures. La Tribune de l’Eau fut l’un des évènements les plus remarquables de l’Expo 2008 Zaragoza. Cette Tribune avait pour but d’engager un dialogue autour du thème de l’Expo 2008 « Eau et développement Durable », de provoquer des rencontres entre responsables, experts et citoyens du monde entier afin qu’ils réfléchissent ensemble sur les problèmes et leurs solutions. Ce rendez-vous offert par Expo 2008 Zaragoza a rencontré un grand succès et nombre de personnalités, plus de 2000, ont contribué à sa réussite. Cette formidable plate-forme a permis d’unir à la fois des scientifiques, des techniciens, des responsables d’entreprise, des politiciens, des chercheurs et des écrivains et bien d’autres. Au cours de 10 semaines thématiques, les débats se sont suivis de manière presque ininterrompue sur des sujets tels que : « Eau et Terre », Eau et Ville », « Eau pour la Vie », « L’Eau ressource unique », « Service d’approvisionnement et d’Epuration », « Changement climatiques et Phénomènes extrêmes », « Economie et Finances de l’Eau », « Eau et Société », « Eau et Energie » et « Nouvelles sources d’Eau : Réutilisation et Désalinisation ». La Tribune de l’Eau a pu faire en sorte que des propositions, des solutions et des réponses soient discutées et partagées avec l’ensemble de la Communauté internationale. Pour tous ceux qui ne pouvaient assister à tous les débats, des rapports complets ont été publiés afin de rendre compte à la fois de l’intérêt des citoyens du monde pour le thème et de la volonté de chacun de vouloir trouver ensemble des réponses. De même, les semaines thématiques étaient diffusées sur les cinq continents grâce à des vidéoconférences qui ont permis l’exportation du dialogue bien au-delà des portes de l’Expo 2008. C’est pourquoi l’on peut considérer que la Tribune de l’Eau est un legs intellectuel d’Expo 2008 Zaragoza. Car Expo 2008 a su, grâce à cette Tribune, fédérer l’intérêt international, réunir les hommes et les idées et a ainsi permis de parvenir à un engagement commun synthétisé dans la Charte de Saragosse véritable aboutissement concret de tous les débats. 5 Il ne faut pas omettre de rappeler aussi l’importance aussi de l’Agora, l’espace de participation citoyenne à la Tribune de l’Eau qui a permis de recueillir les pensées et commentaires des citoyens et qui a souvent donné l’occasion d’élargir les débats. De même que n’oublions pas non plus le programme « Cinéma et Eau » qui a présenté quelques 180 heures de film sur l’Eau et le Développement durable grâce à la participation de plus de 50 pays. Enfin, un ensemble d’essais uniques a été publié par Expoagua dans la collection « Paroles d’eau ». Cette collection destinée au grand public traite des questions fondamentales sur l’Eau et a été éditée en trois langues afin sensibiliser le plus grand nombre. Les auteurs ne sont autres que : V. Shiva, physicienne, épistémologue, écologiste, écrivain, docteur en philosophie des sciences et féministe indienne, R. Menchu, prix Nobel de la paix et ambassadrice de bonne volonté auprès de l'ONU, M. Da Silva, ancien Ministre de l’Environnement au Brésil, W. Maathai, Prix Nobel de la Paix, A. Garrigues, Juriste espagnol et fondateur du Chapitre Espagnol de Transparence Internationale, S. Georges, Politologue et auteur de travaux très influents sur les questions sociales, économiques et environnementales, R. Petrella, Politologue et économiste , P. Arrojo, Économiste et Président de la Fondation Nouvelle Culture de l’Eau , I. Restrepo, Académicienne, experte en environnement, membre du CINARA (Université del Valle, Colombie), E. Anglarill, Journaliste de RTVE, spécialiste des questions environnementales, J. Solana, Haut Représentant pour la Politique Extérieure et la Sécurité Commune de l'Union Européenne (UE), entre autres écrivains. Ce legs est une transmission, un don, une offrande aux générations futures. Le rôle des Expos n’est pas seulement d’informer mais aussi de transmettre pour faire progresser les idées et les actions dans l’avenir. Les Expos ne finissent pas lorsque leurs portes se ferment, elles ont une vocation de continuité et représentent aujourd’hui un réel engagement pour l’avenir. C’est avec cette volonté que le Gouvernement espagnol a remis au BIE et aux Nations Unies la « Charte de Saragosse », afin de promouvoir le legs de Expo 2008. Cette même Charte a été présentée lors du 5è Forum Mondial de l’Eau qui s’est déroulé à Istanbul, Turquie, au mois de mars 2009. Le legs se fait d’une Expo à l’autre. En effet, Expo 2000 Hannover fut la première Expo à engager un dialogue global et à le faire perdurer dans le temps et Expo 2005 Aichi ainsi que Expo 2008 Zaragoza ont hérité toutes deux de cette caractéristique nouvelle et fondamentale des Expos d’aujourd’hui. Le legs se fait aussi de pays à pays, de gouvernement à gouvernement, d’homme à homme, de conscience à conscience. Il s’agit d’un legs qui nous concerne tous et que sommes tous invité à recueillir pour le transmettre à notre tour. Les Expos ont de nos jours une véritable vocation de legs universel. La Charte de Saragosse est aujourd’hui une référence mondiale dans le domaine de l’eau et du développement durable. Les Expos ne sont plus simplement des événements ludiques et éducatifs. Elles jouent aussi un rôle dans les interrogations de l’humanité, elles s’impliquent et s’engagent, elles participent à la construction du présent et de l’avenir. 6 Table of content / Sommaire Vicente González Loscertales, Préface Page 5 Secrétaire Générale du BIE Roque Gistau, Expoagua Zaragoza 2008 and its Water Tribune Page 9 Président Expoagua Zaragoza 2008 S.A.

Since its conception, Expo 2008’s commitment to Water and Sustainable Development was solid and consistent.

    SHANGHAI, CHINA’S CAPITAL OF MODERNITY: THE PRODUCTION OF SPACE AND URBAN EXPERIENCE OF WORLD EXPO 2010 by GARY PUI FUNG WONG A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOHPY School of Government and Society Department of Political Science and International Studies The University of Birmingham February 2014 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT This thesis examines Shanghai’s urbanisation by applying Henri Lefebvre’s theories of the production of space and everyday life. A review of Lefebvre’s theories indicates that each mode of production produces its own space. Capitalism is perpetuated by producing new space and commodifying everyday life. Applying Lefebvre’s regressive-progressive method as a methodological framework, this thesis periodises Shanghai’s history to the ‘semi-feudal, semi-colonial era’, ‘socialist reform era’ and ‘post-socialist reform era’. The Shanghai World Exposition 2010 was chosen as a case study to exemplify how urbanisation shaped urban experience. Empirical data was collected through semi-structured interviews. This thesis argues that Shanghai developed a ‘state-led/-participation mode of production’.

  • Conceptualizing Mega-Event Flagships—A Case Study Of
    Frontiers of Architectural Research (2013) 2, 107–115 Available online at www.sciencedirect.com www.elsevier.com/locate/foar CASE STUDY Conceptualizing mega-event flagships—A case study of China Pavilion of Expo 2010 Shanghai China Ying Dengn Department of Civil Engineering, The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China Received 28 August 2012; received in revised form 30 October 2012; accepted 12 November 2012 KEYWORDS Abstract Mega-event flagship; Mega-event flagship (MEF) is a dual instrument for staging a mega-event and catalyzing regional Case study; urban renewal. Despite its unfailing popularity and controversial nature, many initiators seem Conceptualize; to equate MEF development with signature architecture, resulting in a persistent issue of China Pavilion; underuse among MEFs in the post-event era. Although research findings indicate that the early Expo 2010 Shanghai stages hold the key to the future of MEFs, insufficient research on this crucial matter has been China; done to provide useful analyses as to how to achieve this. To rectify this, this paper presents a Clustering case study of China Pavilion (CP) as the most spotlighted MEF initiated by Expo 2010 Shanghai China. Through participant observation, archival records, and documentation, the case of CP was extensively explored to learn how the client organization has addressed the issues of form, function, and future positioning at the early stages. By linking the pre-Expo conceptualization with its post-Expo performance, the case brings a renewed attention to the early stages of MEF development. Although it is a single-case study, this research yields results that indicate the possibility of having beneficial spillover impact on broader-scale urban renewal by balancing an MEF’s dual mandate.

  • Vermont History Expo Photographs and News
    Vermont History Expo Photograph & News Media Collection, 2000-2012 FB-79 Introduction This collection contains selected newspaper and magazine articles, professional and amateur photographs, and slides of the Vermont History Expo during the years 2000 through 2012. It is housed in two document storage boxes and three archival storage boxes (3.25 linear feet). The core of the collection was transferred to the VHS Library by Sandra Levesque, Expo Coordinator working under contract to the VHS, in 2007. The remainder of the materials have been added from VHS office files. Organizational Sketch The Vermont Historical Society began hosting the Vermont History Expo at the Tunbridge Fairgrounds in Tunbridge, Vermont, for one weekend each June beginning in 2000. The event featured displays by participating local historical societies, museums, historical organizations, period crafters, demonstrators, and re-enactors. In addition there were historic presentations and speakers, musicians, heirloom animal displays and presentations, an authors’ tent, parade, and country auction. Thousands attended the weekend-long event which was held annually until 2008; the event resumed as a biannual event in 2010. The event had its genesis in the Heritage Weekend sponsored by the Cabot Creamery and the Vermont Historical Society in 1999. This event, an open house of historical societies in Washington and Orange Counties for one weekend in June, grew into the Vermont History Expo the following year. Sandra Levesque was the coordinator hired by the VHS to run the event between 1999 and 2006. The Expo event was preceded by a series of workshops for local historical societies on how to create effective displays.

[email protected] http://dx.doi.org/10.5755/j01.ee.28.2.3048 Hosting mega-events has been regarded as an effective catalyst for city branding. But increasing environmental cost of mega- events has been highlighted recently, which affected local residents’ actual perception. The inconsistence between governments propagandizing benefits from holding mega-events and citizens’ real experience will decrease the real effect of the events. This paper demonstrates the inconsistence by Shanghai example, which is a support to the theory of mega-event impact on city. Shanghai 2010 World Expo officially aimed to improve the quality of life and building a harmonious society, while there are fewer studies focusing on whether the proposed vision is accepted by citizens. This paper explored the influences with a particular focus on residents’ attitudinal survey after the event from December 2010 to February 2011 and 148 respondents were collected. Using structural equation model, the results illustrated that surveyed residents recognized more with 4 dimensions (culture, environment, economic and technology), which reflected the harmony between man and nature, as well as harmony between spiritual and material content.

  • The Effects of Different Actors on Urban Agriculture: a Comparison of the Cities of Zaragoza and Valencia in Spain
    Sustainable Development and Planning VIII 53 The effects of different actors on urban agriculture: a comparison of the cities of Zaragoza and Valencia in Spain K. Sakura Department of Engineering, Architectural Course, Shinshu University, Japan Abstract Urban agriculture is closely watched because of a currently high interest in organic produce, desires for lush green cities, increased leisure activities, and so on. This study clarifies the locations of urban agricultural lands, why these locations were selected, and the functions of urban agricultural areas in two cities in Spain. The study focuses on the efforts of the Benimaclet Neighborhood Association in Valencia, Spain, and those of the Ebro Ambient Center in Zaragoza, Spain, to address these questions. Valencia’s Benimaclet Neighborhood Association is an example of citizen actors, and Zaragoza’s Ebro Ambient Center is an example of municipal government actors. This study finds that the locations and functions of urban agriculture differ by type of actor. The study supports research on the implementation of “the suitable place for urban agriculture” when designing sustainable cities of the future. Keywords: urban agriculture, actor, Valencia, Benimaclet Neighborhood Association, Zaragoza, Ebro Ambient Center. 1 Introduction 1.1 Background and purpose Urban agriculture has been attracting attention from the perspectives of organic farming, clean and safe agricultural produce, a desire for vibrant green cities, and so on. Scholars in the field of urban planning expect urban agriculture to offer alternative uses for vacant lots. The first purpose of this study is to develop that expectation one step further by clarifying where urban agricultural lands are WIT Transactions on Ecology and The Environment, Vol 210, © 2016 WIT Press www.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3541 (on-line) doi:10.2495/SDP160051 54 Sustainable Development and Planning VIII located, why those locations are selected, and the part that urban agricultural areas play in modern cities.

  • Canada at Expo 2005: Nation, Audience, and the Branded Display Complex
    Canada at Expo 2005: Nation, Audience, and the Branded Display Complex: by Laurie J. Dalton A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Canadian Studies Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2014 Laurie Dalton Abstract Popular culture events, such as world’s fairs, are important objects of study as they demonstrate how visual culture functions as an agent of nation branding on a global scale. Much of the research on these events has focused on the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries as sites of imperialism and modernism. Although less attention has been paid to contemporary world’s fairs, this study argues that these continue to be critical areas of study. Expo 2005 in Aichi, Japan was the first world’s fair held in Asia in the twenty-first century. As global power dynamics shift to Asia, an examination of cultural events allows us to explore how countries hope to position themselves in this shift. My case study of the Canadian pavilion at Expo 2005 demonstrates how the display simultaneously projected a federal brand and reflected tourist expectations of Canada for the Japanese audience. I use a visual analysis drawing from iconology and visual semiotics to understand how the design of the pavilion represented the unique expectations of three different stakeholders: the organizers of the Aichi expo who sought to position Japan within a wider global framework, the Canadian federal planners who wanted to project a distinct Canadian identity abroad, and the attending public, who went to be entertained.
