The Future of Cities and Energies in Western Europe
The Future of Cities and Energies in Western Europe explores a variety of theoretical and empirical approaches to researching energy issues in Western European cities, as well as urban energy transition. It serves as a collection of materials, instruments, ideas, and theories to embrace this subject. The contributions are interdisciplinary, drawing from areas such as sociology, urbanism, geoecology, architecture, and political science, thus demonstrating that this research topic, which is now gaining full legitimacy in traditional fields, requires open and reflexive dialogues.
Inclusive Localities
Die Beiträge in diesem Buch werfen ein kritisches Licht auf die Ausgestaltung, Verhandlung und Schaffung inklusiver Bedingungen. Die Autor*innen analysieren politische Programme und reflektieren über deren inklusive oder exklusive Auswirkungen in europäischen und außereuropäischen Kontexten. Trotz dieser globalen Effekte, die durch überlokal getroffene Entscheidungen zustande kommen und die Handlungsspielräume vor Ort beeinflussen, betonen viele Beiträge die maßgebliche Rolle der kommunalen Ebene für eine erfolgreiche Umsetzung von Inklusion.

Soziale Teilhabe und Mobilität
In diesem Buch wird der Zusammenhang zwischen sozialer Teilhabe und Mobilität auf Basis theoretischer Grundlagen und Erfahrungen aus einem Reallabor in der Region Hannover dargestellt und mithilfe von quantitativer und qualitativer Empirie untersucht. Zudem werden neu entwickelte Planungsinstrumente, wie ein Index zur Quantifizierung von Mobilitätsoptionen sowie ein durch einen sozialen Baustein erweitertes Verkehrsnachfragemodell, vorgestellt. Mobilitätsbezogene Maßnahmen zur Steigerung sozialer Teilhabe werden auf Basis der Empirie entwickelt, im Reallabor erprobt sowie mithilfe eines hierfür konzipierten Bewertungssystems beurteilt.
Transdisziplinär und transformativ forschen
Dieses Open Access Buch ist ein Beitrag zur Methodik transdisziplinärer Forschung, und zwar für transformative wie nicht-transformative Forschung, für solche innerhalb wie außerhalb von Reallaboren. Methoden der Wissenserzeugung, Wissensintegration und Transformation werden ausführlich beschrieben und illustriert, so dass Dritte sie umsetzen können. Entwickelt wurden diese Methoden von Reallaboren in Baden-Württemberg. Reflexionen über Partizipation, die Rolle von Praxisakteuren und die Güte partizipativer Forschung runden das Buch ab. Diese sind gewonnen aus der forschungspraktischen Erfahrung in Reallaboren. Sie adressieren grundlegende Fragen transdisziplinärer Forschung, die weit über das Forschungsformat Reallabor hinausreichen. Der Herausgeber, die Herausgeberin Fürspr. Rico Defila und Dr. Antonietta Di Giulio leiten die Forschungsgruppe Inter-/Transdisziplinarität, Programm MGU (Mensch Gesellschaft Umwelt), Universität Basel.
Wes Craven
With a career spanning four decades, Wes Craven (1939–2015) bridged independent exploitation cinema and Hollywood big-budget horror. A pioneer of the modern horror cinema, Craven directed such landmark films as The Last House on the Left, The Hills Have Eyes, A Nightmare on Elm Street, and Scream—considered not only classics of the genre, but examples of masterful filmmaking. Producing an impressive oeuvre that mixed intellectual concerns and political ideas, Craven utilized high-tension suspense, devastating visual brutality, and dark humor to evoke a unique brand of fear. Moreover, his films draw attention to the horror of American society—namely racism, classism, and the traumas oft...

Mischung: Possible!
Urban development for all Mischung: Possible! offers basic knowledge on mixed-use planning based on a case study of an urban development project. The book draws on a four-year experimental study of sustainable mixed-use inner-city district development at the site of the former Nordbahnhof railway station, one of Vienna’s largest development areas. The mixed-use scenarios include mobility, care work, zero emissions, the sharing economy, creative clusters, “fair business,” networked services, and urban manufacturing. The goals are to deliver both collective and individual added value for users and to develop innovative buildings in an “urban base” for a long-term mixture of uses. This showcases best practice in sustainable urban planning. A reference work for district developers Best practice for urban mixed-use development Study conducted by the Technical University Vienna with several well-known partners
