Casablanca and Chandigarh - How Architects, Experts, Politicians, International Agencies, and Citizens Negotiate Modern Planning : Modern Urbanism, New Geographies


Description

Chandigarh Casablanca documents two different but complementary urban realities that have played a fundamental role in the imagination, the definition, and the redefinition of the 20th-century modern city. Modern urbanism has traditionally ascribed universal value to avant-garde ideas originating in Europe and North America, and developments in non-Western regions as derived from those original models. This study shifts perspective in search of a new understanding of the modern city, taking into consideration the complex history of diverse cultures and changing borders. Focusing on a range of issues from the symbolic use of architecture to construct stunning monuments, to the creation of public spaces, housing design and social facilities, it features many images by two non-western photographers, Yto Barrada (French Morocco) and Takashi Homma (Japan), to construct a relevant definition of the modern city in a global sense.

Praise for Cynthia Eden's novels We ve all encountered people like Fred in our lives. In THE FRED FACTOR, Mark Sanborn illuminates the simple steps "each" of us can take to transform our own lives from the ordinary into the extraordinary. Sanborn, through stories about Fred and others like him, reveals the four basic principles that will help us bring fresh energy and creativity to our life and work: how to make a real difference everyday, how to become more successful by building strong relationships, how to create real value for others without spending a penny, and how to constantly reinvent yourself. When the psychically powerful three-year-old CASSANDRA ANDERSON killed her Casablanca and Chandigarh - How Architects, Experts, Politicians, International Agencies, and Citizens Negotiate Modern Planning : Modern Urbanism, New Geographies free epub abusive father, she was taken into the custody of Justice Department, who blocked the memories of her traumatic childhood. Inducted into Psi-Division as a cadet, where the Judges use telepaths, empaths, precogs and others with psychic abilities to aid the fight against crime, Anderson is thrown in the deep end as she faces up to the worst Mega-City One has to offer.
