Abstract

The production of urban space in scarcely studied by scholars in historical and urban studies, the city being still predominantly seen as a frame in which activities and social relationship develop, not a produce in itself. The scope of the book is the comprehension of this production. This implies an adequate conceptualisation of the way urban space can be measured and broken down in units which can be put in relation with social processes and agents. A first part examines the concepts and their implications. The second part deals with the anthropology and typology of architectural production considered in relation to demography. The third part develops on the rhythms of the space production at Lyon from the late 15th century to the 19th. The temporalities and spatialities of the production are determined and examined. The agents of the production are studied all along the period, in parallel to the market aimed at: investors in real estate, tenants, activities. Each phenomenon identified can be described and understood as in the meantime a temporal, spatial and social unit.

Abstract

In post-war Greece, Western Allies, the country's conservative political elite and parts of the middle class have shared a dream of consolidating and maintaining the country's western, bourgeois-liberal orientation. In 1947, with the civil war still raging in the country, the Greek government chose the path of the capitalist countries and joined the American programme for the reconstruction of war-torn Europe. Miltiadis Zermpoulis examines the social and political changes brought about by the civil war, the dominance of conservatives in the political arena and the promotion of political surveillance and compliance technologies in the daily life of Greece's second largest city, Thessaloniki.

Abstract

Landbahnhöfe förderten Modernisierung, Beschleunigung und Mobilität. Sie galten als Eingangstore von Orten und fungierten als Zugang zur Welt, kurz: Sie waren Schnittstellen zwischen Stadt und Land. Gegenwärtig kämpfen viele ländliche Regionen mit Abwanderung, mangelnder Versorgung und dem Rückbau von Infrastrukturen. Die Situation der Landbahnhöfe steht hier paradigmatisch für repräsentative Gebäude, die leer stehen und verfallen. In einer zunehmend vernetzten Gesellschaft bilden sie ungenutzte Ressourcen. Anhand einer Neufokussierung und Neuaneignung ihrer architektonischen, räumlichen und strukturellen Potenziale entwickelt Maria Frölich-Kulik Umnutzungsstrategien, die eine nachhaltige Landschaftsentwicklung fördern.
