In "The Dutch urban block" and the public realm, Susanne Komossa uses typomorphological research to analyse the development of the Dutch urban block as an architectural model over the past four hundred years. The urban block is the link between city dwellers' everyday lives and the urban public realm. This clearly written and amply documented study calls for the small-scale urban economy and the public realm to be treated as essential components of the city when new urban plans and models are developed.

Un artiste examine la pléthore de places d’Europe, d’Europa Places, de Places de l’Europe et d’Europaplatzes et ce qu’ils nous disent de l’idéalité de « l’Europe ». Si l’environnement bâti est un enregistrement de nos modes d’organisation et des compromis que nous faisons pour vivre ensemble, alors que devons-nous faire de la pléthore de places d’Europe, d’Europa Places, de Places de l’Europe et d’Europaplatzes ? Les espaces publics qui relient de nombreuses villes disparates à travers un « supersite » appelé Europe, ils peuvent apparaître comme des avatars d’une idée en crise, comme les « valeurs eurocentriques » et le concept de l’Europe en tant qu’espace politique unifié sont attaqués et érodés de toutes parts. Atlas Europe Square documente un corpus d’œuvres de l’artiste suisse Yves Mettler qui, depuis 2003, s’est engagé dans une cartographie et une documentation continues de ces sites, ainsi qu’une série de projets triangulant entre des places particulières, interrogeant leurs différentes fonctions architecturales, environnementales et publiques, et ce qu’ils nous disent sur l’idéalité de « l’Europe » et la (im)possibilité de son instanciation concrète.Ici, ce travail s’étend à des réflexions sur la relation entre l’art et l’espace public, la spécificité du site et l’implication de l’artiste dans l’imaginaire de l’Europe alors qu’il s’empêtre dans un réseau de projets, de fonds et d’organismes publics qui cherchent à promouvoir la culture européenne à travers l’art. contient des textes de l’artiste aux côtés d’essais de Reza Negarestani, Teresa Pullano, Laurent Thévenot et Stephen Zepke, discutant du travail de Mettler.

By United Nations estimates, 60 percent of the world's population will be urban by 2030. With the increasing speed of urbanization, especially in the developing world, scholars are now rethinking standard concepts and histories of modern cities. The Spaces of the Modern City historicizes the contemporary discussion of urbanism, highlighting the local and global breadth of the city landscape. This interdisciplinary collection examines how the city develops in the interactions of space and imagination. The essays focus on issues such as street design in Vienna, the motion picture industry in Los Angeles, architecture in Marseilles and Algiers, and the kaleidoscopic paradox of post-apartheid Johannesburg. They explore the nature of spatial politics, examining the disparate worlds of eighteenth-century Baghdad, nineteenth-century Morelia, Cold War-era West Berlin, and postwar Los Angeles. They also show the meaning of everyday spaces to urban life, illuminating issues such as crime in metropolitan London, youth culture in Dakar, "memory projects" in Tokyo, and Bombay cinema. Informed by a range of theoretical writings, this collection offers a fresh and truly global perspective on the nature of the modern city. The contributors are Sheila Crane, Belinda Davis, Mamadou Diouf, Philip J. Ethington, David Frisby, Christina M. Jiménez, Dina Rizk Khoury, Ranjani Mazumdar, Frank Mort, Martin Murray, Jordan Sand, and Sarah Schrank.
