  • Planning, Projects, Practice
    Planning, Projects, Practice A Human Geography of the Stockholm Local Investment Programme in Hammarby Sjöstad Jonas R Bylund Department of Human Geography Stockholm University 2006 Abstract Programmes and policies to support ecological sustainable development and the practice of implementation is a question of innovation rather than known and taken for granted procedure. This thesis argues a priori models concern- ing stability in the social sciences, and human geography especially, are less able to help us understand this practice and planning in such unstable situa- tions. Problematic in common understandings of planning and policy imple- mentation concerning sustainability are the dualisms between physical-so- cial spaces and between rationality-contingency. The first dualism makes it hard to grasp the interaction between humans and nonhumans. The second dualism concerns the problem of how to capture change without resorting to reductionism and explanaining the evolving projects as either technically, economically, or culturally rational. The scope of the thesis is to test resources from actor-network theory as a means of resolving these dualisms. The case is the Stockholm Local In- vestment Programme and the new district of Hammarby Sjöstad. The pro- gramme’s objective was to support the implemention of new technologies and systems, energy efficiency and reduced resource-use as well as eco-cy- cling measures. The case-study follows how the work with the programme unfolded and how administrators’ efforts to reach satisfactory results was approached. In doing this, the actors had to be far more creative than models of implementation and traditional technology diffusion seem to suggest. The recommendation is to take the instrumentalisation framing the plasticity of a project in planning seriously – as innovativeness is not a special but the general case.

  • Liberal Capitalism As a Collective Action Problem
    Liberal Capitalism as a Collective Action Problem Dean Curran [email protected] Paper prepared for the Annual Canadian Political Science Association Meeting Wilfred Laurier, Waterloo, Ontario May 18, 2011 Preliminary Draft Please do not cite without permission In their recent groundbreaking work, The Spirit Level Wilkinson and Pickett (2010) argue that advanced economies have now reached a threshold where economic growth is no longer an effective means of advancing the welfare of its citizens. Instead, for these nations, the key economic criterion for the generation of welfare is the distribution, not the production, of wealth (Wilkinson and Pickett, 2010: 5-10). Such views resonate with those of John Stuart Mill, who argued, contrary to the other liberal political economists, that human welfare would greatly benefit from reaching the end of economic growth. For Mill, it was only in this temporary stage of perpetual economic growth that “the energies of mankind should be kept in employment by the struggle for riches” (Mill, 1987: 748-9). In an economy without growth, the permanent maintenance of an equitable distribution of wealth would ensure that no one ‘has any reason to fear being thrust back by the efforts of others to push themselves forward’ and thus leave people scope to focus their attention and activity upon not merely instrumental activities (Mill, 1987: 748-9). This paper attempts to provide further support for these themes by delineating an alternative model of capitalism that illuminates how, without limits on inequalities, economic growth can lead to almost everyone in a given society being worse off. The particular target of this paper is an economic system in which the primary mechanism for the distribution of goods and services, wealth and labour is through competitive markets – which may be described as ‘liberal capitalism’ for the purposes of this paper (Coates, 2000: 9-10; cf.

  • Ag2184 New Urban Sociology & Environmental Psychology
    AG2184 6.0 credits NEW URBAN SOCIOLOGY & Urbanism Studies ENVIRONMENTAL PSYCHOLOGY ABE / KTH FOR URBAN DESIGN Spring 2017 COURSE COORDINATORS Dr. Hélène Littke, Urban and Regional Studies, KTH | [email protected] Dr. Pernilla Hagbert, Urban and Regional Studies, KTH | [email protected] EXAMINER Dr. Tigran Haas, Urban and Regional Studies, KTH | [email protected] COURSE DESCRIPTION Urban Sociology and Environmental Psychology are interdisciplinary fields focused on the sociological study of life and human interaction in urban areas and the interplay between individuals and their surroundings. The course explores the interdependent role cities play in the development of society as a whole, along with the changing character of urbanity. Students are first introduced to key theoretical formulations and models in the area of environmental psychology related to people and places, such as personal space, place attachment, place identity, behavioral settings, environmental restoration, affordances, cognitive maps and wayfinding and others. Relationships between the physical environment, natural and human-made, and the behavior of human beings are studied in-depth; focusing on perceptual, cognitive, and motivational aspects of the human-environmental interaction. The course especially focuses on applications of behavioral studies in urban design projects. The course then goes on to explore theories surrounding urban societal development, starting with the Modern sociological “classics” that shaped urban theory and practice during the 20th century, and followed by a critical review of the issues related to urban (re)development we face today, including aspects of social and environmental (in)justice, gentrification, and “urban sustainability”. The course addresses urban politics, economic systems and housing markets, democracy and participation in public policy processes, and questions of class, gender, ethnicity, and culture in relation to urban environments.

  • Historic Preservation, Planning, and Sustainability
    A SYSTEMS APPROACH TO HISTORIC PRESERVATION IN AN ERA OF SUSTAINABILITY PLANNING ©2012 Erica Christine Avrami ALL RIGHTS RESERVED A SYSTEMS APPROACH TO HISTORIC PRESERVATION IN AN ERA OF SUSTAINABILITY PLANNING by ERICA CHRISTINE AVRAMI A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Planning and Public Policy written under the direction of Robert W. Lake and approved by ______________________________ ______________________________ ______________________________ ______________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey May 2012 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION A Systems Approach to Historic Preservation in an Era of Sustainability Planning by ERICA CHRISTINE AVRAMI Dissertation Director: Robert W. Lake, Ph.D. The public outcry over large scale urban renewal projects of the mid-20th century served a catalytic role in the codification of the modern historic preservation movement in the United States. While theories of heritage and its protection underpinned policy development, the discourse surrounding the loss of historic fabric and the fracturing of communities within American cities played a critical role in the institutionalization of the field. It effectively pitted preservation as a counter movement against the public and private interests seeking social progress through rational planning paradigms. The modern preservation infrastructure – including institutions, legislation, and policies – is now half a century old, but the conceptual dynamics that isolated preservation from other land use decision-making at the juncture of its institutionalization persist. The disjuncture between preservation and broader land use and building policies presents new challenges in light of contemporary sustainability concerns.

  • Cities and Fascination Beyond the Surplus of Meaning
    Cities and Fascination Beyond the Surplus of Meaning Edited by Heiko Schmid, Wolf-Dietrich Sahr and John Urry CITIES AND FASCINATION Re-materialising Cultural Geography Dr Mark Boyle, Department of Geography, University of Strathclyde, UK, Professor Donald Mitchell, Maxwell School, Syracuse University, USA and Dr David Pinder, Queen Mary University of London, UK Nearly 25 years have elapsed since Peter Jackson’s seminal call to integrate cultural geography back into the heart of social geography. During this time, a wealth of research has been published which has improved our understanding of how culture both plays a part in, and in turn, is shaped by social relations based on class, gender, race, ethnicity, nationality, disability, age, sexuality and so on. In spite of the achievements of this mountain of scholarship, the task of grounding culture in its proper social contexts remains in its infancy. This series therefore seeks to promote the continued significance of exploring the dialectical relations which exist between culture, social relations and space and place. Its overall aim is to make a contribution to the consolidation, development and promotion of the ongoing project of re-materialising cultural geography.

  • DISCOVER SOCIETY Number 3 December 2013
    DISCOVER SOCIETY Number 3 December 2013 Factual – Measured - Critical THE RICH CLASS AND OFFSHORE WORLDS John Urry, Lancaster University Warren Buffett, sometimes described as the twentieth century’s most successful investor, recently maintained: ‘There is class warfare, all right, but it’s my class, the rich class, that’s making war, and we’re winning’. This article describes how this rich class did indeed wage class war through deploying the striking new strategy of offshoring. The ‘rich class’ refers to high net worth individuals and families, the owners/managers of major corporations and professional service companies, many thinktanks, and leading policy-makers. How did the rich class develop such a strategy? We know that all societies entail the movements of peoples and objects, but capitalist societies seem to elevate the scale and impact of such movement to dramatically new levels. Many analysts believe there is a massive ratcheting up of this borderlessness from the 1980s onwards, and that this is a key part of the neo-liberal redrawing of almost all societies around the world. This movement of money, people, ideas, images, information and objects had been thought of as economically, politically and culturally beneficial. Most aspects of contemporary societies were believed to be positively transformed through increased cosmopolitanism and borderlessness. The world was increasingly open especially if one lived, worked and consumed near the centre of this world of greater opportunity and choice. But this 1990s decade did not turn out to be the harbinger of a long term, optimistic and borderless future. Many texts especially in the new century reveal the dark side to borderlessness.
