Urban Transformations is a theoretical and empirical account of the changing nature of urbanization in Germany. Where city planners and municipal administrations had emphasized free markets, the rule of law, and trade in 1871, by the 1930s they favoured a quite different integrative, corporate, and productivist vision. Urban Transformations explores the broad-based social transformation connected to these changes and the contemporaneous shifts in the cultural and social history of global capitalism. Dynamic features of modern capitalist life, such as rapid industrialization, working-class radicalism, dramatic population growth, poor quality housing, and regional administrative incoherence significantly influenced the Greater Berlin region. Examining materials on city planning, municipal administration, architecture, political economy, and jurisprudence, Urban Transformations recasts the history of German and European urbanization, as well as that of modernist architecture and city planning.
Este livro é o resultado da pesquisa de diferentes laboratórios dedicados ao exame das políticas públicas no contexto de uma sociedade informatizada e globalizada, e de uma percepção que reconhece o campo das políticas públicas por novas transversalidades disciplinares e institucionais. Esse é o seu desígnio – desenhar a complexidade das relações que conformam o campo e definem formas alternativas para pensar a ação de diferentes atores associados e dedicados à concepção e implementação de políticas públicas.

Este libro integra quince trabajos que aportan diferentes aspectos del problema del suelo en las ciudades de la región, desde una definición más precisa de la problemáticas a la luz de la Agenda, hasta la explicación de instrumentos político – normativos novedosos, promotores de una gestión urbana distinta implementados incluso con anterioridad a la aparición de la Nueva Agenda Urbana (NAU), pero acordes con sus principios y orientaciones. Así, los capítulos invitan a aprender de quienes ya están andando el camino en la aplicación, de lineamientos, acciones, políticas e instrumentos de suelo, lo cual permite tender otro puente con la NAU cuyo mayor reto hoy es su implementación. En este sentido uno de los propósitos de la obra es evidenciar que aún con el complejo -- y muchas veces desalentador--escenario de nuestros espacios urbanos, existen oportunidades de intervención para la construcción de territorios más equitativos.
