This poster article highights the revival of the anthropomorphic design in modern architecture by presenting two striking examples.

"Nach der Symboltheorie von Norbert Elias repräsentiert die Fähigkeit zu Sendung und Empfang von Botschaften die fünfte Dimension der Symbole. Eine Architektursoziologie, die entsprechend symboltheoretisch fundiert wird, muss die in den Raum eingebettete Architekturgestaltung als erste Symbolebene und die Raumkultur als zweite Symbolebene empirisch untersuchen: a) Die Genese der räumlichen und gegenständlichen Gestalten sowie der Bedeutungen wird in einer Längsschnittperspektive zur Synthese gebracht; b) die Abhängigkeiten der Formen und Elemente in den Mustern symbolischer Gestaltung und Nutzung werden analytisch zu einem Zeitpunkt untersucht. Dadurch wird empirisch nachvollziehbar, in welcher Weise die bauliche Anordnung von Gegenständen im Raum den Entwicklungsstand der jeweiligen gesellschaftlichen Figuration widerspiegelt. Riege und Schubert (2. Auflage, 2004) haben mit dem methodischen Modell der 'integrierten Sozialraumanalyse' einen empirischen Weg beschrieben, die symbolischen Facetten von Raum und Architektur hinreichend zu erfassen: In der Sozialraumanalyse werden 1. die materiellen Erscheinungsform des Raumes wie zum Beispiel die physischen Grundlagen, 2. die Interaktions- und Handlungsstrukturen der Erzeugung, Nutzung und Aneignung des Raumes sowie seiner architektonischen Gegenstände und 3. das räumliche Zeichen- und Symbolsystem sowie die (historischen) Enstehungsbedingungen systematisch betrachtet. An Hand des Zusammenhangs zwischen wachsenden Interdependenzgeflechten in großen Städten auf der einen Seite und den Gestaltungs- sowie Nutzungsformen auf der anderen Seite wird die empirische Annäherung veranschaulicht."

"Architectures of Existence proposes that philosophical thinking (ecosophical thinking) can inform the way we engage with our world and its inhabitants, as architects, designers and planners, but also as individuals, as people, and as a society. In Art et existence, Maldiney states: "For us, to inhabit is to exist". This book aims to unfold, extend, articulate and thicken this postulate by interweaving architecture, city, landscape, literature and philosophy. It takes up the synergistic lines of long-term research carried out from an ecosophical perspective. Such an attitude explores an art of existing in multiplicity, singularity and openness, manifesting the critical dimension through a reinterpretation of the knotting of the trajectories of time, humanity and its becoming. Insisting on what is between things and beings as well as on what is happening, regenerating, recycling, reviving, saving, diversifying, sparing, recreating, meditating: and so caring. These are all eco-rhythms of a different type between human and non-human, to consider ourselves in the world. In an era of uncertainty and climate threats, this book develops the margins of possibility offered by the subject of architecture. This book will be of interest to researchers and students of architecture, urban planning and philosophy"--

Material is the substance of the world of things. Literary sources suggest that materiality was part of aesthetic perception, loaded with meaning and bound to function even in antiquity. To date, this complex reading of material has not been adequately represented in archaeological research. The present volume addresses this oversight by examining the decorative use of material in Roman Italy between the Late Republic and Early Imperial period.

Issue 13 is devoted exclusively to "Towards a Deep Climate Collaboration. Module 3: European Union". ; Despite the EU's complex institutional set-up and the remarkable enlargement to as many as 28 Member States, climate change emerged as a new policy area in which tangible results have been achieved. Greenhouse gas emissions have been reduced by 24% compared to 1990 while the EU economy has continued to expand and become one of the most energy efficient in the world. Ambitious decisions have recently been made to accelerate this downward trend of emissions while continuing the upward path of economic and social prosperity, and to reach climate- neutrality by 2050. Based on solid internal preparations, Europe has shown itself to be a trusted partner in the international climate negotiations. It developed a strong policy architecture at the European level that complements actions taken at national, regional and local levels. It prepares its policies through thorough analysis and consultation with all relevant stakeholders. As such, this architecture can also serve as a benchmark for other countries faced with the need to reduce emissions while addressing issues of fairness between regions, preserving the competitiveness of industry, and building public support through transparency and proactive engagement with stakeholders.

Moral architectures of the National Assembly.
Jean-Philippe Heurtin. [109-140]
The hypothesis of this article is that the architectural device of the Parliamentary Assembly rooms, far from just being an arbitrary setting, with symbolic representations of legitimate parliamentary activity, is a genuine system of reciprocal consolidation of possible orders of members' activity. It is thus possible to extract different grammars from the various architectural conceptions of Assembly rooms since 1789- Each of these grammars establish legitimate and antagonistic forms of parliamentary activities. This article analyzes these various grammars associated with architectural devices, each constituting a legitimate parliamentary order, which allow members to identify appropriate types of action according to this Assembly.

AbstractThis article sets the stage for a special issue that examines the interplay between subnational and supranational governance. It begins by discussing how the territorial architecture of government has become more multilevel as national governments have shifted authority both downwards to subnational governments and upwards to international and supranational institutions. Next, we argue that this multilevel structure emanates from a tension between the drive to reap the functional benefits of scale diversity in a globalizing economy and the pressures arising from collective self‐rule. We build on the research in this special issue to highlight some tangible effects of this tension for policy, politics, and polity. Subnational and supranational governance are conventionally perceived as separate phenomena with distinct consequences, and yet they are intimately connected in a fluid territorial architecture of multilevel governance.
