Toward a Regenerative Psychology of Urban Planning T O W A R D A R E G E N E R A T I V E P S Y C H O L O G Y O F U R B A N P L A N N I N G A dissertation presented to the faculty of Saybrook Graduate School and Research Center in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Psychology by Nicholas S. Mang © May 2009 Nicholas S. Mang, San Francisco, California, all rights reserved. This document is a revised copy of the original dissertation approved by faculty of Saybrook Graduate School and Research Center in fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Psychology. ii Dedication I dedicate this dissertation to all stewards of the earth, Who daily help to generate and regenerate the living world we call home. iii Acknowledgments The process of conceptualizing this dissertation has been in many ways a collective one. Just as the saying goes that “it takes a village to raise a child,” so goes a dissertation. Without the support, inspiration, and engagement from many amazing and remarkable people, this dissertation would not have come to fruition. While there are many more than can be named, I would like to take space here to personally acknowledge a few such people. To my committee members, Joel, Jurgen, and John, each of whom personally helped guide me through this process and helped model for me a humanistic way of engaging and mentoring. Furthermore, to my chair Joel Federman, who as a true Bohmian, always created space for dialogue in which greater meaning and wholeness could emerge, thus continuously supporting and encouraging me to go deeper. To the IDP community, and Charlie Krone in particular, whose relentless caring and profound vision for humanity and our planet has greatly inspired this work as well as my own personal commitment to continuously regenerate spirit in the world. To members of the Regenesis/RCG community, Ben, Joel, Tim, Shannon, Bill, and Carol, whose immense dedication to healing the planet and the human psyche have helped to generate a creative and developmental learning environment in which to work and evolve on this path together. To my parents, Bob and Pamela, who have never failed to believe in me and have provided me with immense tools and opportunities in which to unfold my life and life’s work. Finally, and most importantly, to my wife Ashley, the love of my life, for whom words fail me in appreciating the gift and inspiration that she feeds in my life and work, who helps me grow daily the fire in my heart and the will to make this world a better place. iv T A B L E O F C O N T E N T S INTRODUCTION............................................................................................................................................................................ 1 Context and Rationale .................................................................................................................................................................2 The Problem...................................................................................................................................................................2 The Potential..................................................................................................................................................................3 The Challenge ................................................................................................................................................................4 The Opportunity.......................................................................................................................................................... 7 Overview .......................................................................................................................................................................................... 9 Significance .................................................................................................................................................................................. 10 CHAPTER 1: TOWARDS A REGENERATIVE PSYCHOLOGY..................................................................................... 11 Four Distinct Psychological Paradigms ........................................................................................................................... 11 Overview...................................................................................................................................................................... 16 First Order: Psychologies of Adjustment....................................................................................................... 17 Second Order: Psychologies of Human Potential....................................................................................... 19 Third Order: Living Systems Psychologies ................................................................................................... 21 Fourth Order: Psychologies of Spiritualization .......................................................................................... 22 Theory Summation.................................................................................................................................................. 24 Beyond a Psychology of Human Potential...................................................................................................................... 25 Chapter Conclusions ............................................................................................................................................................... 27 v CHAPTER 2: THE REDISCOVERY OF PLACE & OUR HUMAN ROLE IN IT......................................................... 29 Endangered Place ..................................................................................................................................................................... 30 What is Place?

  • Heritage, Local Communities and the Safeguarding of 'Spirit of Place' in Taiwan
    80 Heritage, local communities and the safeguarding of ‘Spirit of Place’ in Taiwan Peter Davis* Newcastle University, UK, Han-yin Huang** National Chiao-tung University, Taiwan, Wan-chen Liu*** Fu-Jen Catholic University, Taiwan Abstract. After brief reviews of the theoretical concepts relating to place and ecomuseological processes this paper traces the changing relationships between people and place in Taiwan. Research carried out by the authors with local communities on Matsu (a group of Taiwanese islands off the coast of mainland China), and case study material collected from local cultural workshops in southern Taiwan provides a focus for the discussion. Both sets of data demonstrate the growing awareness of heritage by local communities in Taiwan; they recognize that heritage is significant because it reflects and builds local identities, aids community sustainability and provides a sense of place. An account is given about how these inclusive processes are applied and how they appear to benefit the heritage sector in Taiwan. By encouraging community-centred approaches, consultation, involvement and democratization, significant improvements to safeguarding natural resources, the cultural environment and intangible cultural heritage might be possible. However, striking a balance between the aspirations of local heritage activists and the wider community is difficult to achieve. Key words: Taiwan, heritage, community, sustainability, ecomuseum, Heritage and ‘sense of place’. Terms such as ‘belonging’, ‘identity’, and ‘community’ are frequently used when discussing ideas about place, and the more elusive ‘sense of place’ or ‘spirit of place’. Exploring place has been a research focus in several disciplines, including anthropology, ecology, geography, psychology, sociology and (to a lesser extent) cultural and heritage studies.

To have a sense of place. Can the soul deepen and grow without such basic security? This question presses itself upon us with ever greater urgency in our own time. 'Isn't the twentieth century', Elie Wiesel asks, 'the age of the expatriate, the refugee, the stateless - and the wanderer? '2 Enforced movement, driven by chaotic social, political or economic forces is increasingly common; persons, indeed whole communities, are turned, sometimes overnight, into chronic wanderers. The destruc- tion and disappearance of natural places also contributes to this sense of homelessness; as business and technology reach ever further into the wilderness, marshalling its 'resources' for our use, it becomes more and more difficult to imagine the living world as home.

  • The Problem of (Re)Creating
    JOURNAL OF ARCHITECTURE AND URBANISM ISSN 2029-7955 print / ISSN 2029-7947 online 2012 Volume 36(1): 73–81 doi:10.3846/20297955.2012.679789 THE SPIRIT OF THE PLACE – THE PROBLEM OF (RE)CREATING Jūratė Markevičienė Vilnius Academy of Fine Arts, Maironio g. 6, 01124 Vilnius, Lithuania E­mail: [email protected] Submitted 5 December 2011; accepted 8 February 2012 Abstract. The presented research focuses on sociocultural ability to (re)create spirit of a heritage site. The author defines a human habitat as a socio-cultural rhizome, and genius loci – as an intangible quality of a material site, perceived both physically and spiri- tually. Genius loci sites are identified as physical realities, and as mediators and media of societal interactions at the same time; they possess a distinguishable set of fundamental framework attributes: integrity, complementarity, continuity, a touch of eternity, non- evidence, being both a reality and an entity, and rhizomatousness. From this theoretical perspective the author defines conservation as an arboric, and sustenance of continuity – as a rhizomatic phenomenon, and makes a comparative identification of basic attributes, qualities, objectives, activities, and outcomes of the both systemic phenomena. The research resulted in two basic conclusions. First, that – though, due to on-going cultural shift in interactions with history, reconstructions gain in popularity – genius loci sites cannot be created or re-created intentionally, because they are happenings, and not creations. Second, that heritage conservation cannot substitute sustenance of traditional habitats, however, nowadays it plays an irreplaceable crucial role in safeguarding of tangible heritage, and this way becomes a cradle for emerging future cultural traditions.

Mingling acute observation with often wild speculation, it offers a fascinating view of the world as it was understood in the first century AD, whether describing the danger of diving for sponges, the first water-clock, or the use of asses' milk to remove wrinkles. Pliny himself died Natural History: A Selection investigating the volcanic eruption that destroyed Pompeii in AD 79, and the natural curiosity that brought about his death is also very much evident in the Natural History -- a book that proved highly influential right up until the Renaissance and that his nephew, Pliny the younger, described 'as Natural History: A Selection of variety as nature itself'.

  • Urban Cultural Landscapes & the Spirit of Place
    ICOMOS QUEBEC 2008 Author/Presenter: Patricia M. O’Donnell, FASLA, AICP Title: Urban Cultural Landscapes & the Spirit of Place Filename: 77-hFCw-13.doc Topic: Preservation of the Spirit of Place Abstract: Valued villages, towns and cities are legible, multi-sensory vessels for spirit of place that combine tangible and intangible heritage. The cultural landscape of urban areas comprises about half of the space and contributes significantly to the character of the place. Since 2005, intensive discussions grappling with the meaning, character and values residing in the historic urban landscape (HUL) have resulted in the Vienna Memorandum and in resolutions from international meetings. The public and private urban cultural landscape expresses traditions and values and forms a record of ongoing interactions between people and place. These interactions and the values they embody yield both tangible and intangible heritage, residing in the HUL. When adequately understood as an integrated matrix of cultural landscape values, the tangible expressions of place and people and the intangible values residing in those places can be understood, preserved and managed as the unique spirit of place. This paper discusses the cultural landscape as a vessel of spirit of place, using examples of urban landscape spirit and values and suggests analysis and preservation tools that apply to the Historic Urban Landscape. The overriding point is that as heritage professionals we must clearly identify, analyze and be able to present the heritage values of a place so that managing for them is feasible and defensible. Introduction to Urban Cultural Landscapes & the Spirit of Place As a city traditionally developed, the landscape chosen for the site was incorporated into urban design and planning.

In the last few decades we have seen developers market new projects as creating a sense of place without fully understanding the meaning and complexity of the term, which is especially unfortunate in large scale new developments built in existing communities. This thesis will analyze what sense of place is and will question whether sense of place is something that can be created by a design intervention. In addition, it will try to determine how a designer or planner can facilitate sense of place and allow it to emerge in newly created urban developments in existing cities.

  • Term Definition and Source
    DD101 Introducing the Social Sciences GLOSSARY 17 March 2016 11:05 Term Definition and source Society A society is a group of people involved in persistent social interaction, or a large social grouping sharing the same geographical or social territory, typically subject to the same political authority and dominant cultural expectations. Societies are characterized by patterns of relationships (social relations) between individuals who share a distinctive culture and institutions; a given society may be described as the sum total of such relationships among its constituent members. In the social sciences, a larger society often evincesstratification or dominance patterns in subgroups. Insofar as it is collaborative, a society can enable its members to benefit in ways that would not otherwise be possible on an individual basis; both individual and social (common) benefits can thus be distinguished, or in many cases found to overlap. A society can also consist of like-minded people governed by their own norms and values within a dominant, larger society. This is sometimes referred to as a subculture, a term used extensively within criminology. More broadly, and especially within structuralist thought, a society may be illustrated as an economic, social, industrial or culturalinfrastructure, made up of, yet distinct from, a varied collection of individuals. In this regard society can mean the objective relationships people have with the material world and with other people, rather than "other people" beyond the individual and their familiar social environment. Societies are social groups that differ according to subsistence strategies, the ways that humans use technology to provide needs for themselves. Although humans have established many types of societies throughout history, anthropologists tend to classify different societies according to the degree to which different groups within a society have unequal access to advantages such as resources, prestige, or power.

  • The Geo-Poetics of Allen Ginsberg
    humanities Article Creative Environments: The Geo-Poetics of Allen Ginsberg Alexandre Ferrere English Department, Paris Nanterre University, 92000 Nanterre, France; [email protected] Received: 3 May 2020; Accepted: 27 August 2020; Published: 1 September 2020 Abstract: As was the case for other writers from the Beat Generation, geography is more than simply a setting for Allen Ginsberg’s work, as his poetry also bears the imprint of the influence of the landscapes through which he traveled in his mind and poetic practice. In the 1950s, the same decade which saw the composition of Ginsberg’s Howl, Guy Debord and his followers developed the concept of “psychogeography” and “dérive” to analyze the influence of landscapes on one’s mind. The Debordian concept of psychogeography implies then that an objective world can have unknown and subjective consequences. Inspired by Debord’s theories and through the analysis of key poems, this paper argues that a psychogeographical focus can shed new light on ecocritical studies of Ginsberg’s poetry. It can indeed unveil the complex construction of the poet’s own space-time poetics, from hauntological aspects to his specific composition process. Keywords: Allen Ginsberg; Beat Generation; poetry; poetics; memory; Guy Debord; psychogeography; landscape; ecocriticism 1. Introduction In his introduction to Geocriticism: Real and Fictional Spaces, Bertrand Westphal writes: “The perception of space and the representation of space do not involve the same thing” (Westphal 2011, p. 1). Passing from an objective notion of “space” to a subjective concept of “place” is to take a step towards psychogeography, as it involves both the perception and the representation of one’s surroundings.
