Cities and Urban Life: Globalization and the Modern Metropolis. (Urbanization)
PowerPoint presentation on urbanization, urbanism (city) life and the metropolis in a globalizing world. Covers the rise of mega-cities and some sociological aspects of urban life; with many pictures, themes and key social theorists.
City life and new urbanism
This document discusses the principles of New Urbanism and its goal of reintroducing urban centers and qualities to city planning. It begins by describing how post-World War II development led to isolated, car-centric communities that lacked the mixed-use, walkable neighborhoods characteristic of traditional urban planning. New Urbanism began in the 1970s-80s to address this by creating neighborhoods and urban centers with human-scale design. The document then outlines some of New Urbanism's key design principles, such as creating walkable communities with a mix of uses and civic spaces embedded within neighborhoods.
Anti-Gentrification
The document summarizes information about gentrification and anti-gentrification movements from various sources. It defines gentrification as the renovation of deteriorated neighborhoods that results in increased property values and the displacement of low-income residents and small businesses. It discusses who is affected by gentrification and some of its economic and social consequences. It then profiles several grassroots anti-gentrification organizations and movements that have formed to fight displacement, including Right to the City, #LoveTheHill, and the Anti-Eviction Mapping Project.
Thesis book draft 2_120615
This document presents a thesis investigating opportunities for low-cost housing through modular construction and high-density communal living. The aim is to create a new housing paradigm that achieves a more economically viable, ecologically resilient, and culturally constructive typology through hyper-density. This typology could integrate within cities to offer housing for those unable to achieve traditional ownership and set precedent for a shift towards communal rather than individual housing culture. The document outlines the thesis statement and argument, relevance of addressing housing issues, and the author's personal background. It provides an abstract and table of contents, and discusses literature reviewed on topics of urbanism, housing affordability, and the need for an alternative urban model.
An Interdisciplinary Solution to the Problem of Creation and Development
This document discusses the need for an interdisciplinary approach to sustainable community development. It notes that urban planning and design have become separated from other disciplines like architecture, leading to automobile-oriented and unsustainable development. The document outlines some of the problems with current approaches, including exclusionary zoning laws that promote sprawl and segregation. It argues that place and community design impact social and economic outcomes. An interdisciplinary model is proposed to address the complexity of urban problems by considering interactions between disciplines like architecture, planning, political science and sociology.
Gentrification
This file explains what gentrification is, impacts of gentrification and also some of the solutions that can be implemented.
Urban, Historical development of urbanism, New urbanism
Urbanism is the study of how inhabitants of urban areas interact with the built environment. It involves the planning and development of cities and towns. New urbanism emerged as a planning movement in response to the low-density, car-centric development patterns that resulted from industrialization. The principles of new urbanism promote walkable, mixed-use neighborhoods with a range of housing and transportation options. New urbanism aims to create sustainable communities that improve public health and quality of life.

Introduction to human settlement and housing
Human settlements are places where humans live and are influenced by various factors. Settlements have evolved over time from primitive and non-organized groups to modern organized cities and urban areas. The document discusses the major phases of evolution of human settlements from primitive groups to modern urban areas. It also discusses how early settlements arose in river valleys that had fertile soil and water for agriculture, which allowed surplus food and the rise of early cities with specialized populations. Environmental factors like water sources, landscape, and vegetation influenced where early humans chose to settle.
Urban renewal and controlled gentrification 1.09.03
This document is a dissertation by Jorge López de Obeso for his Master's degree in Housing and Urbanism from the Architectural Association London. It discusses urban renewal and controlled gentrification. The introduction provides an overview of gentrification as a process of urban change that involves neighborhood improvement but commonly includes the displacement of existing residents by wealthier newcomers. It proposes the concept of "controlled gentrification" as a renewal process that maintains existing residents while also accommodating new, wealthier residents. The document is divided into three parts that will analyze gentrification theory, case studies of renewal that balanced existing and new residents, and how spatial design can generate and illustrate controlled gentrification.
NJFuture Redevelopment Forum 2016 Mallach
This document provides an introduction to the topic of gentrification. It defines gentrification as increased housing costs and demographic change in lower-income neighborhoods resulting from more affluent households moving in. Gentrification is a market-driven phenomenon that involves neighborhood change and is a constant process. The key issues with gentrification are displacement of existing residents, loss of affordable housing, and change in community character. While some cities like Brooklyn and DC have seen "hyper-gentrification", many older cities have experienced more limited gentrification along with neighborhood decline. In New Jersey, there is little evidence of gentrification outside of Jersey City, but demand for urban living is being met in smaller, walkable municipalities like Red Bank, Montclair, and
Gentrification and regeneration
Urban renewal is the process of redeveloping areas of moderate to high density urban land use. It often involves relocating businesses and demolishing structures to redevelop land. While proponents see it as improving economic and living conditions, critics argue it can displace existing communities. Early examples include Haussmann's redesign of Paris in the 1850s and the redevelopment of Rome from 1925-1950. Urban renewal aims to revitalize city centers and gentrify neighborhoods but has also demolished some neighborhoods in the past.
GENTRIFICATION AND URBAN RENEWAL
The document discusses the topics of gentrification and urban renewal. It begins with definitions of gentrification and describes the four stages of the gentrification process as outlined by Slater in 2011. These include the initial stage of pioneers renovating properties, the second stage of more newcomers renovating homes, the third stage of increasing investment and rising housing prices, and the fourth stage of many properties being gentrified and an influx of middle-class residents. The document also examines the positive and negative implications of gentrification, providing examples such as cleaner neighborhoods but also increased housing costs resulting in displacement. It concludes by considering potential solutions to gentrification such as liberalizing zoning laws and ensuring community input in the planning process.

Appropriation of Gezi Park in Istanbul

A B S T R A C T
The Gezi Park incidents of summer 2013 in Istanbul have marked a turning point in the political life and democracy in Turkey. The peaceful environmentalist protestations in central Gezi Park have turned into a countrywide upheaval against the neo-liberal and conservative policies of the government, pouring millions of people into streets in different cities. It was a time that Turkey witnessed the formation of a new type of public sphere that encompasses a variety of counter publics, and its spatial incarnation –the Gezi Commune-, reclaimed, created, shaped and inhabited by the free will of people. This was the instant creation of oeuvre through appropriation of the urban space, and a spatial manifestation of reclaiming the right to the city. This article is a reflection on possibility of creation of oeuvre in contemporary society, and a new way of architectural thinking and practice that can pave the way for it.

Postmodern Los Angeles
The document discusses how Los Angeles exemplifies a postmodern city due to its instability from being built on a fault line and surrounded by desert, its decentralized and fragmented nature with no clear center and emergence of edge cities, and high levels of segregation among its population. It also notes the many social, environmental, and infrastructure problems facing the city like pollution, traffic, gangs, and lack of public transportation options. Scholars analyze how Los Angeles has come to represent future urban forms through its sprawl, reliance on cars, and myth-making around concepts like climate and freeways.
Urban Gentrification
The document discusses urban gentrification in the Benson neighborhood of Omaha. It defines gentrification as the process where a low-value neighborhood is transformed into a high-value area. It notes changes already taking place in downtown Benson and asks if residents feel they have been for the better. The Benson-Ames Neighborhood Alliance has a plan to revitalize the area. It discusses the characteristics of gentrification and provides other examples like Old Market and North Loop in Omaha. It asks how gentrification affects lower-income residents and what the causes may be, discussing production-side and consumption-side theories. Finally, it asks if urban gentrification is a good idea.
Gentrification Project
This document discusses the gentrification of inner suburbs in Melbourne, Australia. It provides charts showing shifts in the occupations and education levels of residents moving into these areas, driving up incomes and housing prices. This process has continued to spread further into northern and western suburbs, affecting housing affordability and neighborhood character. Government policies around development, taxation, and grants have contributed to rising prices outpacing incomes. The document examines causes and impacts of gentrification in Melbourne.
Gentrification and its Effects on Minority Communities – A Comparative Case S...
This paper does a comparative analysis of four global cities and their minority districts which have been experiencing the same structural pressure of gentrification. The main contribution of this paper is providing a detailed comparison of four micro geographies worldwide and the impacts of gentrification on them: Barrio Logan in San Diego, Bo-Kaap in Cape Town, the Mission District in San Francisco, and the Rudolfsheim-Fünfhaus District in Vienna. All four cities have been experiencing the displacement of minority communities due to increases in property values. These cities were chosen because their governments enacted different policies to temper the gentrification process. It was found that cities which implemented social housing and cultural inclusionary policies were more successful in maintaining the cultural and demographic make-up of the districts.
Intelligent sustainable liveable cities
The document discusses factors that contribute to intelligent, sustainable, and livable cities. It covers the following key points in 3 sentences:
Letchworth Garden City in the UK and the work of planners Ebenezer Howard and Patrick Geddes are discussed as early examples of planned communities that integrated urban and rural amenities. Modern examples like Masdar City aim to be carbon and waste neutral through traditional design and advanced technologies. As urban populations grow rapidly, challenges include traffic, pollution, inequality and ensuring prosperity for future generations through sustainable planning of large cities and regions.
ecological-urbanism
This document provides an overview of Ecological Urbanism as a response to issues facing cities in the era of globalization. It discusses how globalization has led to increasing genericism and homogenization in cities, at the expense of local uniqueness and identity. Ecological Urbanism argues for an approach that considers the underlying dynamic processes and flows that shape urban environments, rather than just the physical form. It asserts that by understanding each place's natural environment, culture, economy, and history, cities can develop in a way that is adapted to local conditions but also engaged with global networks. Ecological Urbanism seeks to integrate natural and biotic systems with urban development patterns in a way that is sustainable and accounts for global interdependencies
Urbanity. Public life and social quality, by Luisa Bravo
The document discusses the need for more participatory and bottom-up approaches to urban planning and design. It proposes applying "lighter, quicker, cheaper" interventions to existing public spaces in Bologna, Italy along the Via Emilia axis. This would create an active network of public places by improving green areas, bike paths, parking lots and other infrastructure. The goal is to reconnect citizens to public life and transform weaknesses into strengths by viewing spaces through their potential uses. The approach aims to better understand changing community needs and values through deep analysis and public engagement.
Gentrification
Gentrification is the arrival of wealthier people in an existing urban district, which leads to increased rents and property values and changes to the district's character. It often displaces poorer communities. Characteristics of gentrification include an increase in median income and property prices in the area, as well as changes to the types of housing and businesses. Effects can be both positive, like reduced crime and vacancy rates, and negative, such as loss of affordable housing and displacement of long-time residents. Examples of gentrified cities include areas of London, Mexico City, and neighborhoods in Canada, France, South Africa, Italy, Poland and Russia.
Planning theory 1
This document discusses three concepts related to planning theory: compact cities, public participation, and rationality. Compact cities are high-density urban developments built in balance with the natural environment that have clear boundaries and a mix of uses. Public participation involves engaging stakeholders and citizens affected by decisions. Rationality means acting based on facts and reality to avoid unwanted consequences, and there are different types of rationality like instrumental, incremental, and bounded rationality.
Gentrification 1-67
This document discusses gentrification and urban displacement. It defines gentrification as wealthy individuals moving into poorer urban neighborhoods, improving conditions and increasing costs which forces out the original residents. Urban displacement then occurs when the original residents can no longer afford to live there due to higher taxes and costs of living. The document examines different types of gentrification, potential causes, and both positive and negative effects. It questions whether the concepts of gentrification and urban displacement apply in the same way in Nigeria given differences from places like Europe and North America where these ideas were developed. It poses questions around what triggers and ends the gentrification process, whether it is cyclical, and whether gentrification in Nigeria could originate from sources other than wealthy individuals as is typically

This document discusses how the internet can promote rural development through improved communication and access to information. It describes how rural communities have historically been seen as being at the "last mile" of connectivity, but argues they should instead be viewed as the "first mile" in order to prioritize expanding their access. Radio is highlighted as an important medium for reaching isolated rural communities. The role of telecenters in providing internet access in developing areas is also examined. Geographic information systems are introduced as a tool to analyze spatial data and solve real-world problems.
Settlement Model Answers
The park centered around Strathclyde Loch has several attractions for visitors, including a visitor center, picnic site, camping and caravan site, water sports center, and theme park. The physical landscape posed challenges for building the A465 road, requiring embankments across rivers and through narrow valleys, and construction on steep slopes. Evidence from the map shows the CBD of Motherwell is located in Area A, where there is a high density of buildings, railway station, churches, and civic buildings clustered at a route center.
Submerged archaeology Power Point
1. The document discusses an archaeological study in Southeast Alaska that aims to locate submerged sites from the period of 10,500 to 16,000 years ago, when sea levels were lower and more land was exposed.
2. The study uses GIS-based modeling of environmental and archaeological data to create maps predicting areas of high potential for finding submerged sites along the continental shelf.
3. Underwater surveys in the study area of Shakan Bay found several acoustic anomalies that could indicate archaeological features like fish weirs or settlements. However, further investigation was unable to locate any definite sites.

It also discusses the Caribbean colonies and proprietary colonies established later in the 17th century. The chapter is divided into sections on the different colonial regions and time periods, and contains questions for students on key events, people, and concepts discussed in the text.
Settlements and urban models
The document discusses different types of settlements and urban models. It defines a settlement as a place where people live, from a single house to a large city. Settlement sites are chosen based on factors like proximity to water and transport routes. Larger settlements become hierarchical centers that provide more services. Urban models in more economically developed countries include concentric zones like the central business district and suburbs. Models in less economically developed countries have informal shanty towns and greater inequality.
Fundamentals of music onlinestudents compressed
This document provides an introduction to basic musical elements for a course on rock and roll music. It defines three major elements of music as rhythm, melody, and harmony. It explains key musical terms including scale, octave, measures, progression, chords, and improvisation. The document also discusses how African scales differed from European scales and the blending of African rhythms with European scales that resulted from the assimilation of musical traditions.
Evolution of settlements
1. Early humans lived nomadic lifestyles as hunter-gatherers but began settling in caves near water sources for shelter.
2. Around 10,000-5,000 BC, humans learned agriculture and began living in permanent settlements of huts and mud houses near their cultivated fields.
3. As populations grew and chiefdoms formed, social stratification emerged between rich elites living in fortified castles and poorer peasants and artisans living in surrounding areas, laying the foundations for early civilizations.
Recipes
This document contains recipes for several vegan desserts and snacks, including fruit smoothies, pancakes, chocolate banana cake, fruity tofu cheesecake, peanut butter chocolate chip cookies, flourless chocolate raspberry cakes, and berry truffles. The recipes provide lists of ingredients and instructions for making each item.
Settlement and urban growth
The document discusses the location and growth of settlements. It describes how early settlements were located based on factors like access to water, defensive positioning, and natural resources. It then explains how settlements evolve over time and take on different functions. The main functions of settlements discussed are administrative, defensive, mining, industrial, tourist, educational, religious, residential, port, market town, and route center. Larger settlements tend to be multi-functional. The document also introduces models of urban land use, including the Burgess and Hoyt models which describe concentric zones of land use radiating from the central business district.
5 Urban Models
Ebenezer Howard's 1898 work contrasted rural and urban life, proposing "Garden Cities" that incorporated the best of both, such as Letchworth (1903) and Welwyn Garden City (1920). While well-intentioned, garden cities often functioned merely as dormitories for larger cities and did not fully achieve their egalitarian vision. Bid rent theory shows how much different sectors are willing to pay for land in various locations, with retail highest in the city center and residential uses on the outskirts. Variations of this model account for factors like transportation intersections and suburban centers.
Steve Jobs Inspirational Quotes
This document contains 25 quotes from Steve Jobs on a variety of topics.

This document provides an overview of the gentrification process in the Lawrenceville neighborhood of Pittsburgh over the past 20-25 years. It discusses how Lawrenceville shifted from a blue-collar middle class community to a new middle class population of artists, young professionals, and "bohemians". The gentrification was driven by efforts from Lawrenceville officials and city planners to attract new businesses and residents by marketing affordable housing and business space. While gentrification models cannot be universally applied, examining the specific cultural and economic factors involved in Lawrenceville's transformation provides insights into urban development and population shifts in other Rust Belt cities experiencing similar changes.

This document provides background on the gentrification process in Lawrenceville, Pittsburgh over the past 20 years. It discusses how Lawrenceville shifted from a blue-collar, middle class neighborhood to a new middle class of artists, young professionals, and "bohemians". The gentrification was spurred by efforts from community officials and business elites to attract new businesses and residents through affordable housing and business rents. While gentrification studies often overgeneralize, examining specific communities like Lawrenceville in a qualitative way is important to understand all the unique factors involved in the process.
S.Cuers Qld Planner 2006
Planners play an important role in building socially sustainable communities through urban consolidation. Urban consolidation allows for more compact, higher-density development near transport and services, with claimed benefits like reduced environmental impact, improved access to opportunities, and more affordable housing. However, critics argue that it can reduce social capital and community cohesion. The social sustainability of urban consolidation depends on embracing change and integrating new and existing communities through quality design, infrastructure, and community participation in the planning process.

Management of Rural Urban Development
The document discusses various topics related to urbanization, urban areas, and rural development. Some key points:
- Urbanization is defined as the process where populations move from rural to urban areas, enabling cities and towns to grow. It is influenced by perceived benefits in cities like economic opportunities and services.
- Characteristics of urban areas include large populations, population density, heterogeneity, and ways of life involving competition, anonymity, and individualism.
- Rural development aims to provide basic necessities, self-respect, freedom, and reduce servitude. It is a goal for improving living standards.
- New urbanism is an approach that promotes walkable, mixed-use communities and public transportation to encourage
Defining Urban, Urbanization & Urbanism
This document discusses concepts related to urbanization, urbanism, and cities. Some key points:
- Urbanization is defined as the process of populations moving from rural to urban areas, causing cities and towns to grow. It is influenced by economic, political, and social advantages of urban living.
- Urbanism refers to the way of life in cities, and the social and cultural consequences of dense, heterogeneous urban populations. It involves more competition, specialization, and impersonal relationships than rural areas.
- New Urbanism is an urban planning movement that promotes walkable, mixed-use neighborhoods to encourage healthier, more sustainable living. It aims to build a sense of community while adopting ecological practices.
An interdisciplinary solution to the problem of creation and development
This document discusses the need for an interdisciplinary approach to sustainable community development. It notes that urban design, planning, and architecture have become separated from other disciplines like political science and sociology. This siloed approach has led to automobile-oriented sprawl and socioeconomic problems in many cities. The document argues that an integrated approach is required to address the complex challenges facing urban development, including issues of land use, zoning, economic growth, and inequality. A review of literature in different fields is needed to understand the dynamics at play and propose effective solutions for designing sustainable communities.

The document summarizes the origins and key concepts of the ecological city approach. It traces the origins of the idea back to 1975 in Berkeley, California, with the founding of the Urban Ecology organization. Major developments included Richard Register's 1987 book Eco-City Berkeley which introduced the concept, and the First International Eco-City Conference in 1990. The ecological city aims to achieve a balanced, sustainable city in harmony with nature by integrating social, economic, and environmental objectives. It acknowledges ecological limits and promotes diversity, community, and fulfilling human needs within those limits.
Planning orientation through reference studies
The document discusses various planning and development related terms. It defines village, town, city, region, metropolis and megalopolis. It also explains concepts like five year plan, regional development plan, perspective plan, comprehensive development plan, city development plan, and their objectives. The document then defines terms related to demography, economics, ecology, sociology, geography, cartography, anthropology, statistics and archeology. It also discusses urban forms like linear, radial, grid and star patterns. Finally, it elaborates on concepts like neighbourhood units, density calculations, transportation systems and environmental engineering terms.

The document compares the Garden City concept and the Radiant City concept in terms of social sustainability. It analyzes the two concepts and their underlying principles. It then examines the cities of Brasilia and Canberra as case studies, with Brasilia representing the Radiant City and Canberra representing the Garden City. The analysis finds that while both aim for social sustainability, the Garden City concept better achieves it through its emphasis on integrating the countryside with the urban center and prioritizing naturalness and livability over density.
URBAN CRISIS AND TRENDS IN SUB –AFRICAN
This document discusses urbanization trends in Sub-Saharan Africa and their impact on human security and sustainable development. It notes that while urban centers have existed for centuries, the rapid growth of urbanization in many developing countries has outstripped the provision of key services like housing, water, sanitation, education, health, employment, and transportation. This has resulted in various environmental, social, and economic problems associated with rapid urbanization, posing a threat to sustainable development and human security. The document provides background on concepts of urban crises, planning, and trends, and factors driving urbanization such as rural-to-urban migration due to poverty, lack of rural infrastructure and services, and availability of opportunities in cities.
Architecture and global ethnographies
This document discusses how architects are increasingly focusing on issues of social justice and inclusion in their work. It argues that to adequately address climate change, architecture needs to engage both locally and globally. The document examines the concept of "insurgent citizenship" and alternative practices by marginalized groups. It suggests that to respond to climate change, architects need a reflexive approach that accounts for its complex multiscalar impacts and involves diverse actors across levels of governance. Architects should draw from both ethnographic understanding of local contexts and transformative visions that avoid the failures of past utopian plans.

This document discusses key concepts in human geography including:
- Places and regions are settings for social interaction and provide context for people's daily lives and experiences. They are interdependent parts of complex networks.
- Location influences social interaction by structuring daily routines and providing opportunities and constraints that impact social well-being. Places are arenas for social norms to be established and contested.
- Different geographic scales like world regions, national organizations, and individual bodies/selves represent partitions of space that influence and are influenced by one another.

The document discusses theories of urbanization and the history of urbanization. It provides the following key points:
1) Cities first emerged around 6,000 years ago in Mesopotamia, with the earliest large cities being in China in the 13th century. Until the 19th century, urban populations remained low globally at less than 3% of the total population.
2) Major urbanization began during the Industrial Revolution in the 19th century, driven by industrialization and rural-urban migration for work. By 1950, about 25% of the global population lived in urban areas, concentrated in Europe, North America, and Australia.
3) Since the late 20th century, developing countries have urban
2012 evolutionary waves of place-shaping pre during and post recession - pu...
This paper is concerned with the evolution of place-shaping over the past decade or so and its potential future direction, specifically relating to a UK context but with varying aspects of resonance internationally. The methodological approach and empirical originality is derived from practitioner encounters synthesised with theory. Three ‘waves’ of place-shaping are discernable: renaissance, recession mitigation and recovery. Conceptualising and examining the changing face of place-shaping practice, some broad place quality trends are identified. Asserting that renaissance interventions were heavily skewed towards enhancing the material aspects of city spaces it is suggested that recessions provide a useful interject to reflect on past practice, rethink future policies and sharpen skills. It is within such a climate that innovatory practice can flourish as (public, private and community) actors are challenged to seek alternative ways of working. Questioning the wisdom of cuts in quality, the paper calls for new ways of capturing place quality.
Key words: place-shaping, regeneration, urban renaissance, place quality, economic recovery.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Segregation – it refers to the tendency of people belonging to the same ethnic grouping, religion, social class, or occupation to live together in exclusive area. Invasion – it occurs when new types of people, institutions or activities enter an area previously occupied by a different type. Succession or Conversion – it refers to the condition where invasion reaches the climax stage, that is, when the inhabitants , institutions or new functions completely occupy the area. Zoning – it is a procedure by which land parcels in the city are designated by law for specific purposes and the size of lots and the structures in them are regulated.
