Realidade urbana brasileira: problemas, desafios e possibilidades para a efetivação do Direito à Cidade
Este livro é o resultado das discussões do Curso de Realidade Urbana Brasileira e São Joanense, realizado entre setembro e novembro de 2020, para discutir a produção da cidade, bem como a desigualdade socioespacial dela decorrente e os impactos da pandemia de COVID-19. De forma transdisciplinar, os debates aqui presentes buscam refletir sobre os problemas, desafios e possibilidades para a efetivação do Direito à Cidade. A proposta de debruçar-se sobre a realidade urbana é um convite para que todos possam se sentir partícipes e artífices da construção de uma outra cidade, mais justa, igualitária e democrática.
Urban Warfare
How finance and politics have caused the global housing crisis The most comprehensive survey of the current crisis, Urban Warfare charts how the financial crisis and wider urban politics have left millions homeless and in financial desperation across the world. The financialization of housing has become a global catastrophe, leaving millions desperate and homeless. Since the 2008 financial collapse, models of home ownership, originating in the US and UK, are being exported around the world. Using examples from across the globe, Rolnik shows how our cities have been sold to construction companies and banks, while supported by government-facilitated schemes, such as “the right to buy” subsidies and micro-financing. Our homes and neighbourhoods have become the “last subprime frontiers of capitalism,” organised by those who benefit the most.

The projects featured come from cities around the world, both those known for innovation in urban architecture such as Tokyo, Japan and Scandinavian capitols, and those less known such as Winnipeg, Canada and Ljubljana, Slovenia.

Urbanization is a global phenomenon, but the way cities are developing, the experience of city life, and the prospects for the future of cities vary widely from region to region. The Atlas of Cities presents a unique taxonomy of cities that looks at different aspects of their physical, economic, social, and political structures; their interactions with each other and with their hinterlands; the challenges and opportunities they present; and where cities might be going in the ...
