Social and Economic Perspectives on Sustainability
e term “Sustainability” possesses numerous meanings for different people and various circumstances and it is a common mistake to define sustainability strictly in terms of “environmental sustainability”. is misconception believes the major flaw of the contemporary pattern of development is simply its destruction of the environment. Handling “sustainability” only from an environmental standpoint is a superficial view that needs to be assessed carefully and underlined correctly. As A. D. Basiago suggests, “…[t]he protection of natural systems represents not an overarching panacea for achieving economic vitality and social justice, but a necessary component of an entire system...
Häuser und Familien in Demmin
Nur wenig erinnert noch heute an die umfangreiche Häuser- und Familiengeschichte von Demmin, da fast alle Häuser aus der älteren Zeit bei den zahlreichen Stadtbränden zerstört worden sind. Es entstand die Idee, ein Häuserverzeichnis von Demmin anzulegen, um auch mehr über die Familien zu erfahren, die einst in Demmin lebten. Nicht nur die Lebensdaten der einzelnen Personen sind für die Familienforschung interessant, sondern auch alle Informationen, die man über die Häuser zusammentragen kann. Dieser Bereich der Ortsforschung wurde bislang nur wenig in den Stadtchroniken von Demmin behandelt. Als Hauptquelle für die nachfolgende Publikation dienen die 6 Hypothekenbücher der Stadt Demmin aus der Zeit um 1770–1865 (mit einzelnen Nachträgen bis 1866) und verschiedene Akten aus dem Landesarchiv Greifswald und dem Demminer Museumsbestand. Ebenfalls wurden, sofern vorhanden, Fotografien ergänzt. Tauchen Sie ein in ein Kapitel der Demminer Häuser- und Familiengeschichte aus der Zeit von 1625 bis 1865! Über 1700 verschiedene Familiennamen und über 700 Häuser warten darauf, entdeckt zu werden.

The Healthy Indoor Environment
Despite policy directives, standards and guidelines, indoor environmental quality is still poor in many cases.

Safe as Houses
As the tragedy of the Grenfell tower fire has slowly revealed a shadowy background of outsourcing, private finance initiatives and a council turning a blind eye to health and safety concerns, many questions need answers.0Stuart Hodkinson has those answers. He has worked for the last decade with residents groups in council regeneration projects across London. As residents have been shifted out of 60s and 70s social housing to make way for higher rent paying newcomers, they have been promised a higher quality of housing. Councils have passed the responsibility for this housing to private consortia who amazingly have been allowed to self-regulate on quality and safety. Residents have been ignored for years on this and only now are we hearing the truth. Stuart will weave together his research on PFIs, regulation and resident action to tell the whole story of how Grenfell happened and how this could easily have happened in multiple locations across the country.
