"Politik, Stadtmarketing und Unternehmen propagieren derzeit begeistert das Konzept der 'intelligenten' Stadtentwicklung. Ob die Smart Citys es schaffen, dem Klimawandel oder der Ressourcenknappheit allein durch technologische Aufrüstung die Stirn zu bieten, bleibt allerdings fraglich." (Autorenreferat)

"Wie wir in der Stadt von morgen leben und arbeiten werden, wie wir uns ernähren, wohnen und konsumieren werden, hängt zu einem beachtlichen Maß von der technischen Entwicklung unserer Städte ab. Das ist alles andere als ein Grund für Unkenrufe und Fortschrittspessimismus." (Autorenreferat)

Rooted in the Hood' is a photo essay celebrating the community gardens of New York City and the people who create, cultivate, and enjoy them. The late 60s and 70s witnessed the devastation of New York City, with many buildings in low-income areas left unattended, burned, and reduced to rubble. Drug dealers, gangs, and junkies soon moved in making those neighbourhoods unsafe to live.0This book is about ordinary people, dreamers, and visionaries rising against these unsafe conditions by clearing empty lots, planting trees and vegetables, and slowly creating small havens for the community. By drawing attention to these local gardens, the book brings awareness to the importance of green spaces, not only in New York City, but across the country and around the world

The article, based on the experience of therapeutic accompaniment as a clinic without walls immersed in the city, focuses on the issue of the city and its relations to subjectivity. Using the elaborations of Benjamin about the flânerie and the idea of friendship as the politic present at Foucault and Derrida it underscores the importance, for the achievement of this clinic, of taking into account the city as polis, open to the encounter with difference and therefore a territory for conflict and negotiation. Thus the city as polis is the utopia that the clinic of therapeutic accompaniment intends activate. ; Com base na experiência do acompanhamento terapêutico como uma clínica sem muros, imersa na cidade, o artigo centra-se no tema da cidade nas suas relações com a subjetividade. Valendo-se das elaborações de Benjamin sobre a flânerie e a idéia da amizade como política, presente em Foucault e Derrida, o texto assinala a importância, para a consecução dessa clínica, de se tomar em consideração a cidade como polis, aberta ao encontro com a diferença e, portanto, território de conflitos e negociação. Assim, a cidade como polis é a utopia que a clínica do acompanhamento terapêutico busca ativar.

Sufism is often regarded as standing mystically aloof from its wider cultural settings. By turning this perspective on its head, Indian Sufism since the Seventeenth Century reveals the politics and poetry of Indian Sufism through the study of Islamic sainthood in the midst of a cosmopolitan Indian society comprising migrants, soldiers, litterateurs and princes. Placing the mystical traditions of Indian Islam within their cultural contexts, this interesting study focuses on the shrines of four Sufi saints in the neglected Deccan region and their changing roles under the rule of the Mughals, the Nizams of Haydarabad and, after 1948, the Indian nation. In particular Green studies the city of Awrangabad, examining the vibrant intellectual and cultural history of this city as part of the independent state of Haydarabad. He employs a combination of historical texts and anthropological fieldwork, which provide a fresh perspective on developments of devotional Islam in South Asia over the past three centuries, giving a fuller understanding of Sufism and Muslim saints in South Asia.

La reciente publicación de los Lineamientos Estratégicos Metropolitanos AM Tucumán (LEM AMT); resultado de un trabajo de consultoría que reunió a profesionales de diferentes especialidades en torno al Observatorio de Fenómenos Urbanos y Territoriales de la Facultad de Arquitectura y Urbanismo de la Universidad Nacional de Tucumán; incorpora nuevas posibilidades en el ámbito de político de la Ordenación del Territorio. Se busca poner en discusión la capacidad de los LEM AMT de producir cambios en el uso del suelo del territorio del Sistema Metropolitano de Tucumán (SIMeT), en especial a lo que respecta al Lineamiento 2 / Consolidación y Completamiento de la Estructura Metropolitana. Para ello se analizan definiciones sobre vacíos urbanos desde distintos abordajes, se identifica los solares vacíos y se confronta los datos obtenidos del espacio territorial con los programas y proyectos descriptos en el respectivo lineamiento. Los resultados de estos análisis permiten identificar la relevancia de los grandes vacíos fiscales y las potencialidades de su aprovechamiento para plantear la necesidad de un cambio en las políticas públicas hacia el interior de las instituciones de incumbencia nacional en un modelo de ciudad más sustentable. La recuperación de las prácticas de Ordenación del Territorio conseguida a partir de estos LEM AMT, que por su carácter multi-espacial ponen su eje en lo Metropolitano como espacio de conflicto, abren nuevas posibilidades para las definición de políticas territoriales que incluyan a Instituciones como las Fuerzas Armadas, los Ferrocarriles y las Universidades en la discusión y articulación en pos de la sostenibilidad de un espacio tan complejo como en el SIMeT. ; The recent publication of Metropolitan Strategic Guidelines AM Tucumán (LEM, its Spanish acronym; AMT) is the result of a consulting work that brought together professionals from different specializations around the Observatory of Urban and Territorial Phenomena of the College of Architecture and Urbanism of the Universidad Nacional of Tucumán. It incorporates new possibilities in the field of politics of Land-use Planning. The purpose of this work is to discuss the capacity of LEM AMT to produce changes in land use in the territory of the Metropolitan System of Tucumán (SIMeT, its Spanish acronym), especially regarding Guideline 2 / Consolidation and Completion of the Metropolitan Structure. For this reason, definitions of urban voids are analyzed from different approaches, empty plots are identified, and the data obtained from the territorial space is compared with the programs and projects described in the guidelines. The results of these analysis allow us to identify the relevance of the large fiscal gaps and the potential of their use to raise the need for a change in public policies within the institutions of national concern in a more sustainable city model. The recovery of Land-use Planning practices achieved from these LEM AMTs, which due to their multi-spatial characteristic they place their axis in the Metropolitan as a space of conflict, open up new possibilities for the definition of territorial policies that include Institutions such as Armed Forces, Railroads and Universities in the discussion and articulation in pursuit of the sustainability of a space as complex as in the SIMeT. ; Fil: Politi, Silvia Alicia.

Die Verfasser legen eine Metaanalyse von Forschungsliteratur zu aktuellen globalen Problemen vor wie Bevölkerungsentwicklung, Mega-Citys, Migration und Flüchtlingssituation, Schuldenkrise und Armut, Klimawandel, Wasserknappheit, Verschlechterung der Böden, Wüstenbildung, Ernährung und Hunger, Biodiversität und wiederkehrende Seuchen. Sie stützen die These, dass die ökologische Vielfalt und große Teile der Weltbevölkerung vor allem in der Dritten Welt unter einer möglicherweise irreparablen Krise leiden. Ein Großteil der Schuld für diese Krise trifft die globalisierte, neoliberale Wirtschafts- und Sozialpolitik. Eine Möglichkeit, dem Ökoimperialismus als einem Aspekt des Kulturimperialismus entgegenzuwirken, besteht nach Ansicht der Verfasser darin, eine bewusstere und direkte weltweite Kampagne gegen den Neoliberalismus zu führen.
