Les idées exprimées dans cet ouvrage revêtent une consonnance familière dans les contexte français actuel: similitude des enjeux de développement social et économique? Filiation des approches urbaines dans le sillage de park et Burgess? Quoiqu'il en soit, le livre de Jane Jacobs contient une somme de référence indispensables pour comp^rendre les démaches contemporaines en urbanisme, et propose à tous ceux qui s'intéressent à la ville une méthode dialectique entre théorie et terrain pour élaborer une statégie urbaine.

Les villes forment un immense laboratoire pour faire des expériences, commettre des erreurs, échouer ou réussir en matière d’architecture et d’aménagement urbain. C’est dans ce laboratoire que l’urbanisme aurait dû étudier, concevoir et expérimenter des théories. Au lieu de cela, les hommes de l’art et les enseignants de cette discipline (si l’on peut dire) ont fait abstraction du succès ou de l’échec des opérations réalisées et ne se sont nullement préoccupés de rechercher les raisons des réussites inattendues. Ils se sont laissés guider par des principes inspirés du fonctionnement et de l’aspect de localités de moindre importance, de banlieues, de sanatoriums, de foires-expositions, de cités de rêve, en bref de tout sauf de villes véritables. Il n’est donc pas étonnant, dans ces conditions, de constater que les secteurs rénovés des villes ainsi que les constructions neuves qui s’étendent interminablement au-delà de leurs limites sont en train de transformer la ville et la campagne en un même brouet insipide. Jane Jacobs, remarquable observatrice de la ville contemporaine, passe au crible les grandes questions urbaines (rue et sécurité, espaces verts, grands ensembles…) en analysant la façon dont les habitants ressentent leur quotidien. Vibrant plaidoyer pour la diversité et la vitalité urbaines, The Death and Life of Great American Cities, paru en 1961, continue de rencontrer un accueil exceptionnel auprès du grand public et d’alimenter les controverses autour des visions parfois opposées entre usagers de la ville et professionnels.

Public trust in civic organizations is low. And many public serving organizations (government, news, civil society) assume that greater efficiency will build trust. As a result, they are quick to adopt new technologies to enhance what they do. However, efficiency, in the sense of charting a path to a goal with the least amount of friction, can sometimes be at odds with the goal of building trust. This book is about those practices that challenge the normative applications of "smart technologies" in order to build or repair trust with publics. Based on over sixty interviews with changemakers in public serving organizations throughout the United States, as well as detailed case studies, this book provides a practical and deeply philosophical picture of civic life in transition. It is a book about design, but not necessarily about designers. Without coordinating, these civic designers embedded within organizations have adopted an approach to public engagement we call "meaningful inefficiencies," or the deliberate design of less efficient over more efficient means of achieving some ends. This book illustrates how civic designers are creating meaningful inefficiencies in less than ideal conditions and encourages a rethinking of how innovation within public serving organizations is understood, applied, and sought after. Different than market innovation, civic innovation is not just about invention and novelty, it is concerned with building communities around novelty, and cultivating deep and persistent trust. It involves a plurality of publics (not just a single public good); it creates the conditions for those publics to play; and it results in people caring for the world. Meaningful Inefficiencies describes an emergent approach to creating civic life at a moment when smart and efficient are the dominant force in social and organizational change.

"The Urban Experience provides a fresh approach to the study of metropolitan areas by combining economic principles, social insight, and political realities with an appreciation of public policy to understand how U.S. cities and suburbs function in the 21st century. The new edition will feature a new cohesive framework called the Metropolitan Area Dynamic introduced in the first chapter of the book, then incorporated into every chapter, to demonstrate the demographic, economic, political, social, and public policy forces that impact metropolitan areas. The narrative of the book is grounded in the real life experiences of students and their families on the premise that there is a fascination about one's own surroundings to engage the students in their study. It uses a great deal of historical and comparative data to explore the wide variation in how we experience urban and suburban communities and will include greater discussion of cities worldwide to engage with large scale global issues like climate change, immigration/migration, and inequality. It addresses the changing role and function of U.S. metropolitan areas in an age of growing global competition and focuses on key contemporary problems facing cities and suburbs. Providing an interdisciplinary approach to the topic, the book introduces analyses from economics, sociology, and political science, urban studies, and public policy as useful tools to understand the evolution and current status of the nation's urban areas. The book will be a valuable text for urban scholars, public officials, and all those interested in understanding urban dynamics"--
