WIND POWER DEPLOYMENT IN URBANISED REGIONS
Delivering sustainable energy solutions has become a fundamental task of spatial planning. This dissertation considers the field of tension between higher-tier energy schemes and local-level implementation practices by analysing regional planning policies regarding wind power from an institutional perspective. Institutional challenges in spatial planning are closely related in particular to the flexibility and adaptability of those planning practices that are needed to supply ´acceptable locations´. Similar trends can be detected at a European level: targeted energy values are combined with administratively defined spaces - by putting the zoning of wind energy generation on regional spatial planning agendas. The outlining of wind power zones is not merely a technical act that determines the territorial spread of wind turbines. Rather, it configures social-organisational entities in which regionally varying sets of actors interact and, in the best case, join forces.
Suburban Land Question
The purpose of The Suburban Land Question is to identify the common elements of land development in suburban regions around the world.
ERNEUERBARE ENERGIEN FÜR REGIONEN
Every human action consumes energy: heating, cooling, hot water, electricity and transport requirements – all of these require energy. But climate change demands that our energy needs also change, that we use more and more renewable energies and less and less C02. To do this, we must look at area requirements. In other words, what area per energy quantity per year does a renewable energy source require? Which sources require additional sealing and land use? How strongly does the production of renewable energy compete with other area and land uses? And what are the consequences for spatial and regional planning? The following publication will help answer these questions by providing a catalogue of area requirements for renewable energy sites. In addition, it makes clear that achieving integrated and regional energy planning involves not only energy technology, but requires further research into planning and participation processes. The concept of a regional cooperation area shows great potential in this aspect.
Die Fakultät für Architektur und Raumplanung / The Faculty of Architecture and Planning
Anlasslich des zweihundertjahrigen Bestehens der Technischen Universitat Wien bietet der vorliegende Band einen einzigartigen Uberblick uber die vielfaltigen Tatigkeitsgebiete, deren Summe die Fakultat fur Architektur und Raumplanung ausmacht. Die in dieser Publikation dokumentierten Beitrage belegen das ausserordentlich breite Spektrum einer Fakultat, die sich uber die disziplinaren Grenzen hinaus und in den unterschiedlichsten Massstaben mit der Entwicklung unserer Umwelt befasst; eine Entwicklung, die sie gleichermassen aus einer kunstlerisch-architektonischen, wie aus einer strategisch-planerischer Perspektive betreibt. Die Bandbreite der hier vorliegenden Positionen reicht damit von der Behauptung einer disziplinaren Autonomie und der klar abgegrenzten wissenschaftlichen Erforschung bis hin zu interdisziplinaren, alltags- und nutzerbezogenen Ansatzen.
Rassismus aus der Mitte
Was denkt die »Mitte der österreichischen Gesellschaft« über »die Migrant_innen« und welche differenzerzeugenden Strategien stehen dahinter? Wodurch werden rassistische Haltungen von wem angenommen und wie wird Rassismus innerhalb von Gruppen weitergegeben? Im Rahmen einer sozialanthropologischen Forschung in »antirassistisch« und »rassistisch« wahrgenommenen Gruppen beantwortet Christa Markom diese Fragen. Zudem diskutiert sie am Beispiel von politisch und medial relevanten Schlagworten wie »Meinungsfreiheit« oder »Political Correctness« den Widerstand gegen Sprachverbote im Kontext von Rassismus, Kultur und Migration.
Uropean Urbėniti
Uropean Urbanity provides an overview about young architectural strategies on contemporary urban development, showing all prize-winning and selected Europan projects from the competitions Europan 7+8 in Austria and Slovenia. In parallel with these projects, a collection of texts by writers, critics, theorists, architects and artists examines the effects of political, economical, and social forces onto urban environments, as well as they reflect spatial and urbanist practices, always in relation to current transformations of urban spaces. This publication addresses specialist readers from the disciplines architecture, urban planning, sociology, and cultural theory as well as an audience interested in development of contemporary cities and in experimental architecture work.

The Grand Museum of Egypt
In January 2002, the Egyptian Ministry of Culture ran a competition for an innovative design for a new Grand Museum of Egypt. This two-volume publication contains sketches, plans, elevations and computer models of the prize-winning design and all other second-phase entries.
