‘Dierschap’ is een inspirerend reflectieboek voor iedereen die op professionele basis bezig is met de planning, het ontwerp, de aanleg of het onderhoud van stedelijke ruimtes. Dieren spelen immers niet alleen een centrale rol in het leveren van allerhande ecosysteemdiensten, ze brengen ook kleur in de stad. Vaak bestaat er wel interesse bij stadsplanners, ontwerpers en beheerders om iets te doen voor stedelijke fauna, maar blijkt er in de praktijk toch veel aarzeling te bestaan. Hoe begin je eigenlijk aan het incorporeren van dieren in de planning, het ontwerp of beheer? Dit boek wil reflectie rond het onderwerp stimuleren en een aantal handvatten aanreiken. Met twee filosofische reflecties over de plaats van dieren in de stad en tien inspirerende verhalen vanuit het beleid, het ontwerp en de beheerpraktijk wil het boek het doelpubliek vooral over de streep trekken om weloverwogen aan de slag te gaan voor en met dieren in de stad.

How does nature work in our human-created city, suburb, and exurb/peri-urb? Indeed how is ecology - including its urban water, soil, air, plant, and animal foundations - spatially entwined with this great human enterprise? And how can we improve urban areas for both nature and people? Urban Ecology: Science of Cities explores the entire urban area: from streets, lawns, and parks to riversides, sewer systems, and industrial sites. The book presents models, patterns, and examples from hundreds of cities worldwide. Numerous illustrations enrich the presentation. Cities are analyzed, not as ecologically bad or good, but as places with concentrated rather than dispersed people. Urban ecology principles, traditionally adapted from natural-area ecology, now increasingly emerge from the distinctive features of cities. Spatial patterns and flows, linking organisms, built structures, and the physical environment highlight a treasure chest of useful principles. This pioneering interdisciplinary book opens up frontiers of insight, as a valuable source and text for undergraduates, graduates, researchers, professionals and others with a thirst for solutions to growing urban problems. -- Provided by publisher.

Towards Territorial Transition presents new spatial strategies, concepts, and approaches for shaping large-scale and transnational developments in architecture and urban design towards decarbonization and ecological transition. The contributions investigate interactions between ecological and resource-related systems and landscapes. They explore potential solutions to address and deal with the dramatic threats posed by climate change, and with the social crisis that may emerge from them. The book introduces six basic terms of territorial transition - Territory, Scale, Transition, Resource, Platform, and Uncertainty - and visualizes them with spatial strategies elaborated at the École nationale supérieure d’architecture Versailles and at Graz University of Technology. Moreover, it presents a selection of transnational projects of territorial transition, such as Luxembourg in Transition (Luxembourg / France), Grand Genève (Switzerland / France) and Top Noordrand (Belgium / Netherlands). - Verlag

What do we mean when we say that cities have altered humanity’s interaction with nature? The more people are living in cities, the more nature is said to be "urbanizing": turned into a resource, mobilized over long distances, controlled, transformed and then striking back with a vengeance as "natural disaster". Confronting insights derived from Environmental History, Science and Technology Studies or Political Ecology, Urbanizing Nature aims to counter teleological perspectives on the birth of modern "urban nature" as a uniform and linear process, showing how new technological schemes, new actors and new definitions of nature emerged in cities from the sixteenth to the twentieth century.

This book discusses ecological resources and provides practical solutions that municipal planners can implement immediately. It discusses the most recent scientific data, how to extract what is important, and how to apply it to the local land planning process. The author emphasizes using new environmental indicators, previously unavailable, to asses community ecological health. He includes the application of the Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to problem solving. Ecologically Based Municipal Land Use Planning presents the case for sound land use management that will reduce sprawl.

The past two decades have witnessed a resurgence of ecological ideas and ecological thinking in discussions of urbanism, society, culture, and design. The field of ecology has moved from classical determinism and a reductionist Newtonian concern with stability, certainty, and order in favor of more contemporary understandings of dynamic systemic change and the related phenomena of adaptability, resilience, and flexibility. But ecology is not simply a project of the natural sciences. Researchers, theorists, social commentators, and designers have all used ecology as a broader idea or metaphor for a set of conditions and relationships with political, economic, and social implications. 'Projective Ecologies' takes stock of the diversity of contemporary ecological research and theory -- embracing Felix Guattari's broader definition of ecology as at once environmental, social, and existential -- and speculates on potential paths forward for design practices. Where are ecological thinking and theory now? What do current trajectories of research suggest for future practice? How can advances in ecological research and modeling, in social theory, and in digital visualization inform, with greater rigor, more robust design thinking and practice? How does all of this point to potential paths forward in an age of climate change and the need for adaptation and mitigation?--
