Design and politics
In establishing a professorship in Design & Politics at Delft University of Technology, the Ministry of Housing, Spatial Planning and the Environment has launched a program of education, research and practice for the spatial design of the Netherlands, aimed at reinforcing the interaction between design and politics. The purpose of this book is to offer inspiration and an organizing framework for that program, based on history, reflection, policy and, just as importantly, ambition. The book traces the history of the Netherlands' thinkers, makers and builders. It provides an understanding of how the roles and relationships in Dutch spatial planning have been transformed, and of the ideals, sys...
The Urban Connection
"The urban connection" develops a promising actor-relational approach to urban planning. With respect to the usual governmental planning, it is focused outside in, instead of inside out. It derives its leitmotif from the actual debate about state controlled versus neo-liberal planning and reflects on innovative post structuralist scholars in the field of planning, economics, social geography and governance. It then takes its own position in that debate, reflecting on actor-oriented experiments in planning practices. These experiments deal with the daily planning practice with a pro-active and operational attitude, contrary to the usual retrospective case studies. Therefore it results in concrete suggestions on how to develop a more robust planning-approach in an ongoing globalising and fragmenting world.

Metacity Datatown
An attempt to understand the contemporary city at a moment when globalisation has exploded its scale beyond our grasp. Abandoning topography,ideology, representation, and context, the authors resort to pure data to discover what agenda for architecture and urbanism a numerical approach could provoke.--Provided by publisher.
Amsterdam Zuidas European Space
Until the beginning of the nineties, the centre of Amsterdam was regarded as the obvious nucleus of urban and regional economic activity. But since then, issues of accessibility and scale have induced the development of multi-nodal spatial networks on a regional scale. In ten years' time the spatial and economic configuration of the region has changed dramatically. The development of the Zuidas in the coming thirty years offers a strategic chance to furnish this regionalization of urbanity with a new, more appealing structure. After all, the Zuidas is not only emerging as a business centre of international significance, its favourable position in the traffic and transport system provides it with optimum conditions for evolution into a varied urban-centre environment.
Stadt-Geschichten
Der Band versammelt dreizehn Einzelstudien zur Urbanisierung und städtischen Entwicklung in Deutschland, Europa und den USA seit 1800. Ohne eine geschlossene Gesamtdarstellung ersetzen zu können, ergeben die einzelnen Kapitel in ihrer Gesamtheit doch ein Gesamtbild der Bedeutung der Stadt in Europa und Nordamerika während der letzten 200 Jahre. Thematisch behandeln sie die wirtschaftlichen und demographischen Grundlagen der Verstädterung unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Migration ebenso wie Fragen der politischen Herrschaft und Verwaltung oder sozial- und kulturgeschichtlich interessante Aspekte wie städtische Wohnungs- und Gesundheitsverhältnisse einerseits, Fragen der Stadtwahrnehmung nicht nur in Kunst und Literatur andererseits. Durch die breite Einbeziehung des 20. und frühen 21. Jahrhunderts wird überdies die Absicht verfolgt, die historische Analyse mit der gegenwärtigen Stadtdiskussion zu verbinden. Konkret wird z.B. danach gefragt, welche Auswirkungen die Suburbanisierung auf das Funktionieren einer städtischen Öffentlichkeit hat oder aufgrund welcher Ursachen Gewalt an die Stelle einer friedlichen Aushandlung von innerstädtischer Differenz tritt.
Ruimte voor een toekomst
Hoe zien we een betere leefomgeving en vooral hoe werken we eraan? Rik Houthaeve vroeg het onomwonden aan enkele studenten aan wie hij de afgelopen jaren lesgaf aan de KU Leuven. De studenten in de opleiding ruimtelijke planning en stedenbouw worden immers danig uitgedaagd om te leren een duurzame en kwaliteitsvolle leefomgeving te ontwikkelen. Ja, antwoordde Marie, hoe zien we de toekomst en wat kunnen wij eraan doen? Dat is haast een onmogelijke vraag om te beantwoorden, maar één die mij wel aan het dromen brengt. Ik kan haast van een totaal andere stad dromen. Een stad met meer groen en water, goed om te wonen voor iedereen, voorzieningen op wandel- en fietsafstand en vooral meer toegan...
