Este trabalho tem como objeto de estudo os planos diretores para Goiânia, elaborados na década de 60 pelo arquiteto Luís Saia, e pelo arquiteto Jorge Wilheim consorciado à empresa de engenharia Serete. Analisamos, além do conteúdo de cada plano, a trajetória profissional dos seus autores, a sua contratação e o processo de trabalho que desenvolveram. Para situar estes planos no contexto urbanístico local (Goiânia) e nacional, mostramos como a cidade-nova-planejada construída na década de 30 chegou à década de 60 e qual era o debate urbanístico no Brasil nos anos 50 e 60, destacando a inserção dos arquitetos. Na década de 60 a criação do SERFHAU dá continuidade ao processo de institucionalização do planejamento urbano no Brasil e traz uma mudança muito importante na inserção dos arquitetos neste campo: enquanto na década de 50 estes profissionais começavam a elaborar planos diretores como autônomos, com o SERFHAU os arquitetos passam a compor equipes multidisciplinares de planejamento associadas a empresas de consultoria. Luís Saia e Jorge Wilheim representam estas formas completamente distintas de inserção dos arquitetos no planejamento urbano nos períodos pré-SERFHAU e pós-SERFHAU. / This work has the study object the urban master plans to Goiânia, elaborated of the sixties by the architect Luís Saia and by the architect Jorge Wilheim combined with Serete engineer company. We analyses, besides the content at the each plan, the professional career of both authors, their engagement and the work process that they developed. To situation these plans at the local urban context (Goiânia) and national, we show how the town, planned and built of the thirties, arrives of the sixties and which was the urban debate in Brasil of the fifties and sixties, showing up the architects insertion. Of the sixties, the SERFHAU creation gives continuity to the institutionatization process of the town planning in Brasil and brings a very important change at the architects insertion in this camp: while of the fifties these professionals starts elaborate directors plans like autonomous, with the SERFHAU, the architecs begin to compose a multidisciplinary planning teams in association with consultancy companies. Luis Saia and Jorge Wilheim represents theses completely differents kinds of architects insertion at the town planning in preSERFHAU and postSERFHAU periods.

O objetivo dessa dissertação é resgatar, analisar os projetos para Brasília e identificar suas possíveis referências e matrizes urbanísticas. Ao todo serão identificadas 32 (trinta e duas) propostas para a nova capital e analisadas as 25 (vinte e cinco) existentes, concebidas entre os anos de 1927 a 1957. Identifica-se, em decorrência dessa análise, a construção e o registro de uma cultura urbanística nacional, marcada pela pluralidade de referências (matrizes teóricas e práticas, nacionais e internacionais). Esses elementos, presentes nos planos para Brasília, evidenciam a condição dialética das posturas projetuais que colaboraram na formação da identidade nacional. Ao explicitarem esse campo de conhecimento e atuação prática, os planos contribuem para a ilustração de um pensamento heterogêneo e peculiar da disciplina urbanística no Brasil. / The objective of this dissertation is to rescue, to analyze the projects of Brasilia and to identify its possible references and urban origins. At the end, 32 (thirty two) proposals will be identified for the new capital and 25 (twenty five) existing ones, conceived between the years of 1927 and 1957, will be analyzed. As a result of this analysis, it will be identified the construction and the records of a national urban culture, marked by the plurality of references (nationals and internationals theorical matrices and practices). These elements, present in the projects of Brasilia, highlight the dialectic condition of the projects postures that have collaborated in the formation of the national\'s identity. When expliciting this knowledge field and practical performance, the plans contribute for the illustration of a heterogeneous and peculiar thought of the urban discipline in Brazil.

L’époque contemporaine se caractérise par une omniprésence de la technique, qui soulève des inquiétudes croissantes. Ce constat a conduit nombre de chercheurs à interroger les relations que la technique et la société entretiennent. Dans le sillage de ce questionnement, cette recherche vise à examiner en quoi les techniques sont parties prenantes des changements anthropiques à l’oeuvre, qu’ils soient d’ordre social, politique, culturel, religieux, environnemental, législatif. Pour ce faire, cette thèse étudie, à partir d’une approche ethnographique, les modalités d'existence de dispositifs urbains d’assainissement dans le cadre du Ganga Action Plan, lequel vise la dépollution du Gange. Ces modalités d’existence sont analysées à partir des chroniques des projets urbains se déroulant dans deux villes indiennes, Kanpur et Varanasi, et des controverses suscitées par leur mise en œuvre. Cette thèse démontre que les objets techniques et les activités qui leur sont liées, tout en confortant des règles déjà en place, en instituent de nouvelles, ce qui ne va pas sans susciter des résistances tant d’ordre social que politique. / The omnipresence of technology in the modern world is a source of growing concern and has led researchers to explore the relationship between technique and society. In the wake of this question research seeks to examine the ways in which technology is involved in on-going anthropogenic changes, whether they be of a social, political, cultural, religious, environmental or legislative nature. To this end, and using an ethnographic approach, this thesis studies the modalities of existence in urban water sanitation devices during the Ganga Action Plan’s program aimed at depolluting the river. These modalities of existence are analysed through the chronicles of urban projects taking place in two Indian towns, Kanpur and Varanasi, and controversies aroused by their implementation. This thesis demonstrates that technical objects and their associated activities, whilst following existing rules, also create new ones, which can provoke resistance of both social and political order.

<p>The out-of-town retail establishments are part of the dramatic structural changes in the retailing of food and groceries. There are however strong indications suggesting these establishments result in negative externalities concerning areas such as pollution and urban environment. The purpose of this study is to describe and, from an economic perspective, analyse the Swedish political regulations and planning policies concerning the out-of-town supermarkets. The analysis establishes that the current regulations regarding out-of-town retailing do not, due to the occurrence of market failures, produce an optimal situation. It might therefore be necessary to change the planning policies in a more restrictive direction. Unfortunately, information regarding consumer preferences, necessary for an effective institutional regulation, are not available. Further research is thus needed to obtain this information.</p>
