Abstract

Shopping Towns Europe is the first book to explore the introduction and dissemination of the shopping centre in Europe. European shopping centres are often assumed to be no more than carbon copies of their American precursors - however the wide-ranging case studies featured in this book reveal a very different story. Drawing connections between architectural history, political economy and commerce, together these studies tell us much about the status and role of modernist design, the history of consumption, and the rapidly-changing social, urban, and national contexts of post-war Europe. The book's eighteen chapters explore case studies spanning the continent on both sides of the Iron Curtain, from Britain and The Netherlands to Sweden and the USSR. The focus is on the three decades following the first introduction of the new typology in 1945, tracing the variety of typological manifestations that occurred in widely different contexts, from Keynesianism to communism to military dictatorship. The book also explores the role of the shopping centre in urban reconstruction, and examines how new shopping centres were designed to elicit specifically modern behaviour and introduce new conceptions of collectivity into citizens' everyday lives.

Abstract

The office is dead. Long live the office. Despite decades of predictions that the office is on the verge of extinction, it is surviving and thriving. Of course, things are changing. And changing fast. Digital technologies are transforming not only the work we do, but also the ways our workplaces are designed, built and operated. Automation and AI mean that some jobs will no longer exist whilst others will be created. 0But the very essence of the workplace - human interaction and collaboration, remains as necessary as ever. In fact, it is the human focus that is driving this new age, with four generations now in the workplace together for the first time. 0Taking an interdisciplinary approach, this book discusses the impacts of these changes on the future of work and workplace. The latest technologies are also explored from voice and digital twins, to new materials such as graphene and battery-powered buildings.

Abstract

Able to work anywhere - and in unpredictable times, often forced to - we have a tortured relationship with the office today. Realizing anew the benefits of collaborating and just being in physical, shared spaces, we are simultaneously questioning whether offices - with the demanding, alienating rhythms they impose on us, the expenses they bring to business, and their hefty material and carbon impacts - are needed at al. In times of uncertainty and drastic change, the typical response of architects, in league with corporation and consultants, has been to demolish or strip out office buildings and start again. Attempting to plot a more sane path forwards, this book looks back. How have the revolutionary office buildings of the 20th century evolved in the 21st century ? What architecture and materials, and which ideologies of work and corportate inhabitation have endured, and why ? And which regimes of change have worked, and which haven't ?

Abstract

As of 1st March 2003, the Brussels I- Council Regulation (EC) No 44/2001 of 22nd December 2001 on Jurisdiction and the Recognition and Enforcement of Judgments in Civil and Commercial Matters (Judgment Regulation) has become the cornerstone of the European civil procedural law. The Regulation is directly applicable in all Member States; it forms the residual instrument for cross-border civil procedures in the European Union.The Report made by the well-known German professors of law Hess and Pfeiffer, both from Heidelberg University, and Schlosser, professor emeritus of Munich University, provides for a comprehensive analysis of the application of the JudgmentRegulation in the Member States, based on interviews, statistics and practical research in the files of the national courts. The reporters conclude not to suggest any fundamental amendment of the Regulation, but to consider several improvements, especially with regard to the general function of the Regulation as the residual instrument of European Procedural Law.The Report helps both practitioners and scholars to learn about the impact the Judgment Regulation has had on the procedural practice in the European Member States.- Overview:- A) Summary- B) Introduction- C) Statistical Data on the Application of the Judgment Regulation- D) Report on the Application of the Judgment Regulation in the Member States- E) Overview Policy RecommendationsAcademic community, practicing lawyers, judiciary, public authorities.

Abstract

Sous le titre « Enclaves », le premier numéro de la nouvelle série des Cahiers de l’Institut supérieur d’architecture – La Cambre regroupe trois études qui traitent, à partir d’exemples radicaux, d’une même problématique contemporaine : les implications formelles et spatiales, architecturales et urbaines, des fractures socioéconomiques et culturelles que subissent nos sociétés contemporaines. Ces réflexions, menées dans le cadre de leur travail de fin d’études par des étudiants récemment diplômés, sont précédées de brèves présentations d’enseignants de l’institut et suivies de réactions de spécialistes des questions évoquées. Pour nourrir le débat, le philosophe Lieven De Cauter apporte, en introduction, des éléments de contextualisation. Au-delà de ces analyses critiques, c’est bien entendu la question de l’architecture, comme de celle de l’engagement de l’architecte et du statut de sa profession, qui se trouve posée.
