Stanisław Brzozowski and the Migration of Ideas
As a writer, critic, and philosopher, Stanislaw Brzozowski (1878-1911) left a lasting imprint on Polish culture. The essays in this volume reassess and contextualize Brzozowski's writings from a distinctly transnational vantage point.
Die Kunst der Stunde
Polnische Gegenwartskunst wurde in den späten 1950er und 1960er Jahren zu einer festen Größe im westdeutschen Ausstellungsbetrieb. Faszination für die Tauwetter-Kultur in Polen, politische Motive, aber auch eine allgemeine Internationalisierung der Kunstwelt trugen dazu bei. Lange vor der Aufnahme diplomatischer Beziehungen entstanden dabei Netzwerke über den Eisernen Vorhang hinweg, an denen unterschiedliche Akteure aus Kultur, Wirtschaft, Politik und Zivilgesellschaft beteiligt waren. Auf der Grundlage umfassender Quellenrecherchen rekonstruiert und analysiert die Autorin Hintergründe, Entstehung und Rezeption der Ausstellungen und ordnet sie in den zeithistorischen Kontext ein. Die Verflechtungen von Kultur und Politik werden dabei ebenso deutlich wie die Eigendynamik der Ausstellungskooperationen. Eines der interessantesten, aber weitgehend vergessenen Kapitel der polnisch-westdeutschen Beziehungsgeschichte wird damit erstmals erschlossen.

Masterplanning Futures
Winner of the Urban Design Group's 2014 Book of the Year Award! In the past, spatial masterplans for cities have been fixed blueprints realized as physical form through conventional top down processes. These frequently disregarded existing social and cultural structures, while the old modernist planning model zoned space for home and work. At a time of urban growth, these models are now being replaced by more adaptable, mixed use plans dealing holistically with the physical, social and economic revival of districts, cities and regions. Through today’s public participative approaches and using technologically enabled tools, contemporary masterplanning instruments embody fresh principles, gi...
Management for Sustainable Development
Today, increasingly more, the word sustainability is present in all kinds of discussions: at home, at work, at school, in all society. Conscious of the environment where we live everybody looks to find the best solutions to solve problems that result from Human Being evolution. Management for a sustainable development appears as a process from which organizations try to use all its resources, as well as improve its organizational and technological development, in order to answer not only to the present but also to future human and social needs. Only in this way is it possible to improve the quality of life. Seen in this way, sustainable development is understood to be people centred. We have...
Urban Governance in Southern Europe
The concept of governance has evolved into one of the most important but also controversial concepts in urban politics. While it encourages co-operation, participation and collective construction, at the same time, it has brought about new forms of public demission, oligarchic regimes and less local democracy. The dilemmas accompanying these changes are particularly relevant when observing the cities of Southern Europe, whose socio-cultural specificities very much structure local political and policy materialisations. Bringing together a team of leading scholars from across the social sciences, this volume examines the issues of urban governance in the Southern European context. Illustrated ...
