11	Memory and Continuity Amidst Irreversible Decline in the Texas Big Empty Underwood, Robert Reed 12 1900 (has links) This thesis interrogates sense of place and place attachment in the Big Empty on the north central Texas plains. The region stretches from the Red River on the north to the Colorado River basin on the south and from the Cross Timbers on the east to the Caprock escarpment on the west. Since 1930, the Big Empty has seen sustained and severe population decline such that some counties there now register less than a quarter the population they did at their peaks during the interwar years. Through in-depth field interviews, I examine sense of place and place attachment amidst apparently irreversible decline. I also describe conditions of postindustrial rurality arising from rolling reconfigurations of economic and social relations, particularly changes in scale in farming and the diminished centrality of productivist agriculture in local economies and culture, and how these conditions become legible through the study of place. Rurality Postindustrial Autogeography Place attachment -- Texas. Place (Philosophy) Sparsely populated areas -- Texas. Rural-urban migration -- Texas.

Due to regulatives there is supposed to be new main road. This solution is not ideal. The aim of this project is to search how the lokality should look like without it. The other topic is new usage of postindustrial structures for living in the city. I am looking for options how to create public space where walking is emphasized. I am also interested in topic of gallery house as a structure with wide range of semipublic and semiprivate spaces. Using this topics I am trying to present my own opinion on contemporary city.

The subject of this work is research of different types of urban gardening spaces and their optimal spatial, operational and functional parameters in the context of urbanism and urban planning. The aim is to apply them to the structure of unused urban spaces. On the basis of the case studies included in the research, the success of placement of individual community projects in different types of public spaces and stalled spaces is assessed. Recommendations for planning practice are based on these evaluations. The results of the work show that spaces with possibilities of horticultural production are a suitable solution for the temporary and also long-term use of under-utilized urban areas with many benefits in social, economic and environmental areas.

17	Postindustriální město - Špitálka Urbanistická studie rozvoje města Brna na východ od centra / Postindustrial city Urban development study of Brno - east of the city Mihaľák, Peter January 2018 (has links) ŠPITÁLKA CONCEPT Urban design of Špitálka is trying to create a new residential neighborhood near the center. The combination of old residential and multifunctional buildings is logically complemented by a new one. New residential units replace the post-industrial parts of the emerging brownfield. This does not mean, however, an extensive rehabilitation of the historical building structure. Every object is thoroughly analyzed, considered for its new fulfillment. The basics are connections between old and new buildings. Keeping the high-rise building and many historic buildings creates a prerequisite for preserving Genia loci of that place to the fullest extent possible. At the same time, with new interventions, it is meaningfully and functionally clarified, logically linked, creating new specifications and qualities of space for a good living in the city. It is also about improving the cycling and pedestrian traffic to the city center, street views of Brno's dominant landmarks (Petrov, Kostel sv.), enlarging of the uncomfortably narrow Cejl street, or cultivating the public space with greenery (alleyways, parking lots, parks, . Individual urban blocks offer variable options for typological solutions. The place has the ambition to create a diverse residential neighborhood for private owners, tenants, social and cooperative housing. The goal is not to create formal gestures, but to adequately supplement and sensitively replace the broken parts of the neighborhood.

19	La filosofía política de André Gorz. Las sociedades avanzadas y la crisis del productivismo Valdivielso Navarro, Joaquín 21 June 2001 (has links) El cambio social acaecido las últimas décadas desafía la filosofía política. André Gorz puede ser definido como un crítico moderno del productivismo como uno de los mitos fundantes de la modernidad. Revisa críticamente la tradición socialista mostrando la necesidad de reconsiderar la utopía y actualizar las ideologías emancipatorias. En cuanto a epistemología y ontología, asume una combinación de teoría social de la acción básicamente marxista, con una visión fenomenólogica-existencialista del sujeto. Su contribución clave es la descentralización y la reconsideración de la idea de trabajo, como mediación central en la interacción social y el metabolismo naturaleza-sociedad. No ha sido permeable al giro lingüístico y la crisis del sujeto en la filosofía contemporánea, pero ha abierto una perspectiva postproductivista en el análisis contemporáneo vinculando el postmarxismo con el ecologismo político en un mismo marco teórico coherente. / The social shift suffered last decades poses new challenges to Political Philosophy. André Gorz can be faced as a modern critic who points out productivism as one of the funding myths of modernity. He critically reviews the socialist tradition showing the need to reconsider the utopia and actualise emancipator ideologies. Related to epistemology and ontology, Gorz assumes a combination of social theory based on the idea of praxis (mainly Marxian) with a phenomenological-existentialist view of the subject. The key contribution in his work is the de-centralisation and re-consideration of the idea of labour, as core mediation in social interaction and nature-society metabolism. He is far to be receptive to the debate open by linguistic turn and the crisis of subject in contemporary philosophy, but he has opened a postproductivist outlook of industrial society that link postmarxism and political ecology into a coherent theoretical framework. postindustrial society third sector basic income fenomenology utopia sociedad postindustrial autonomous time tercer sector posmarxism existential marxism fenomenología capitalism political ecology economic reason utopía Gorz labour society racionalidad económica socialismo sociedad del trabajo societat postindustrial ecología política capitalismo renta bàsica Gorz tercer sector temps alliberat fenomenologia tiempo liberado renta básica socialism Gorz utopia posmarxisme marxisme existencialista socialisme marxismo existencialista capitalisme posmarxismo racionalitat económica ecologia política societat del treball Filosofia moral 14

By using the industrial process to guide the formation of the landscape, spaces, and experiences, a semi-abandoned industrial site is transformed into a cultural park. The purpose of the project is to articulate the intriguing qualities of a deindustrial site and respond to them through a design process that is sensitive to the history and character of the site, while allowing contemporary uses and experiences to evolve. landscape architecture industrial landscapes interpretive landscapes design postindustrial deindustrial Dominion Bridge Winnipeg Terrain Vague Drosscapes abandoned landscapes derelict landscapes cultural park landscape photography industrial infrastructure industrial movement
