Forms of Experienced Environments
This book explores ‘environmental forms’ in terms of their relationships to the socio-politico-ecological transformations currently in progress. Today, the environment is a central theme in political discourse, scientific work and everyday life. It is multi-dimensional: it is a living space, a socio-ecological system and a field of research and action. However, despite the presence and diversity of existing approaches, the ways in which policies address environmental issues remain mainly focused on control, highlighting the techno-ecological, managerial and curative dimensions of public actions. Although public action tends to instrumentalise the environment, the humanities and social sc...
Feminist New Materialisms
For the editors of this collection, new materialisms have always been the entanglement of epistemology, ontology, ethics, and politics. Looking back to the notion of “situated knowledges” (Haraway, 1988) that – among others – “planted the seed for feminist new materialism” (van der Tuin, 2015, 26) – one sees how those (at least) four planes are entangled (Rogowska-Stangret, 2018) in order to bring forth “response-able” (Haraway, 2008) research. New materialism is thus an ethico-onto-epistemological framework (Barad, 2007; Revelles-Benavente, 2018) that by activating its ethico-politics helps to diagnose, infer, and transform gendered, environmental, anthropocentric, social ...
De la Ville durable à la nature en ville
Les projets de « ville durable » se sont aujourd'hui multipliés à travers le monde. Comment interpréter cet engouement généralisé ? Est-ce une nouvelle façon de concevoir les relations entre sociétés urbaines et environnements naturels ? Dans un contexte d’accélération de l’urbanisation, plutôt que d’acter l’inauguration de nouvelles politiques...
Villes et territoires de l'après-pétrole
Villes et territoires de l’après-pétrole expose les principes issus d’une réflexion pluridisciplinaire engagée par les membres du collectif Paysages de l’après-pétrole depuis quatre années, démontrant que l’approche paysagère est le fil conducteur de la transition énergétique et du développement durable des territoires. La démarche paysagère, au-delà de solutions en matière de transition énergétique, permet d’élaborer un « monde d’après », en conciliant enjeux économiques, respect de l’environnement et amélioration du cadre de vie et des relations humaines. Parmi ses principes : l’autonomie des territoires, le respect des diversités et équilibres nat...
Broadway Plays and Musicals
New York City's Broadway district is by far the most prestigious and lucrative venue for American performers, playwrights, entertainers and technicians. While there are many reference works and critical studies of selected Broadway plays or musicals and even more works about the highlights of the American theater, this is the first single-volume book to cover all of the activities on Broadway between 1919 and 2007. More than 14,000 productions are briefly described, including hundreds of plays, musicals, revivals, and specialty programs. Entries include famous and forgotten works, designed to give a complete picture of Broadway's history and development, its evolution since the early twentieth century, and its rise to unparalleled prominence in the world of American theater. The productions are identified in terms of plot, cast, personnel, critical reaction, and significance in the history of New York theater and culture. In addition to a chronological list of all Broadway productions between 1919 and 2007, the book also includes approximately 600 important productions performed on Broadway before 1919.
Réemploi, architecture et construction
Le réemploi, véritable alternative à la gestion des déchets, est une opération par laquelle des produits issus d’une déconstruction sont réutilisés. Il permet de conserver les qualités fonctionnelles et techniques d’un matériau ou d’un élément de construction, en lui redonnant la même fonction ou en le détournant de son usage initial. Sa mise en oeuvre implique une nouvelle manière de penser les projets de construction et de rénovation, et ce dès la conception. Cet ouvrage, à la fois théorique et pratique, propose des outils pour mener une opération qui réemploie des matériaux ou des éléments de construction. Ainsi ce guide : – explique comment favoriser le d...

Aesthetic Perceptions of Urban Environments
To what extent do urban dwellers relate to their lived and imagined environment through aesthetic perceptions, and aspirations? This book approaches experiences of urban aesthetics not as an established framework, defined by imposed norms or legislations, but as the result of a continuous reflexive and proactive gaze, a complex and deep engagement of the mind, body and sensibilities. It uses empirical studies ranging from China, India to Western Europe. Three axes are privileged. The first considers urban everyday aesthetic experiences in the long-term as a historical production, from medieval Italy to a future imagined by science fiction. The second examines the impact of aestheticizing eve...
