Desire Lines A Guide to Community Participation in Designing Places

Desire Lines A Guide to Community Participation in Designing Places

Desire lines are the paths that people create through regular usage. They appear where people repeatedly choose to walk and usually signify a route from A to B that’s quicker than the formal path provided.

This is a practical guide to running public consultations co-design and community engagement to help practitioners make the most of local knowledge and insight for the benefit of design. It offers guidance on managing community participation and unapologetically aims to encourage designers to start thinking like social researchers when they undertake these programmes. It’s intended for placemakers - architects urban designers landscape architects and other built environment professionals involved in the planning and design of public realm - who want to develop more people-centred community-led design approaches. | Desire Lines A Guide to Community Participation in Designing Places

Implementing Social Europe in Times of Crises Re-established Boundaries of Welfare?

Implementing Social Europe in Times of Crises Re-established Boundaries of Welfare?

While the EU legitimacy crisis and the Great Recession prevail certain European Union principles and policies have to be implemented in the member states. This volume explores the diverse processes stages and subjects of implementation in a variety of social policies to identify different institutional dynamics and actor behaviours at play. The individual contributions examine the transposition of the patients’ rights directive to the Europeanisation of pension reforms; the role of national parliaments in transposing social Europe; judicial Europeanisation; and the multi-level enforcement of EU decisions. Theoretically the contributions in this book highlights the fact that implementation is often conditioned by domestic politics or comes as a ‘random walk’ due to organisational and cognitive constraints. Empirically the volume has three main findings. First the constitutive components of the EU tend to have a contradictory impact on the EU’s social policies and the national welfare systems. Second crises influence the implementation of social Europe at times leading to a modification of fundamental principles and content but not across the board. Third as a result there is evidence of differentiated Europeanisation. This book was originally published as a special issue of West European Politics. | Implementing Social Europe in Times of Crises Re-established Boundaries of Welfare?

Exercises in Architecture Learning to Think as an Architect

Exercises in Architecture Learning to Think as an Architect

This revised edition of Exercises in Architecture: Learning to Think as an Architect is full of new content building on the success of the previous edition. All the original exercises have been revised and new ones added with the format changing to allow the inclusion of more supplementary material. The aim remains the same to help pre- or early-course architecture students begin and develop their ability to think as architects. Learning to do architecture is tricky. It involves awakening abilities that remain dormant in most people. It is like learning language for the first time; a task made more mystifying by the fact that architecture deals not in words but in places: places to stand to walk to sit to hide to sleep to cook to eat to work to play to worship… This book was written for those who want to be architects. It suggests a basis for early experiences in a school of architecture; but it could also be used in secondary schools and colleges or as self-directed preparation for students in the months before entering professional education. Exercises in Architecture builds on and supplements the methodology for architectural analysis presented in the author’s previous book Analysing Architecture: the Universal Language of Place-Making (fifth edition 2021) and demonstrated in his Twenty-Five Buildings Every Architect Should Understand (Routledge 2015). Together the three books deal with the three aspects of learning any creative discipline: 1. Analysing Architecture provides a methodology for analysis that develops an understanding of the way architecture works; 2. Twenty-Five Buildings explores and extends that methodology through analysis of examples as case studies; and 3. Exercises in Architecture offers a way of expanding understanding and developing fluency by following a range of rudimentary and more sophisticated exercises. Those who wish to become professional architects (wherever in the world they might be) must make a conscious effort to learn the universal language of architecture as place-making to explore its powers and how they might be used. The exercises in this book are designed to help. | Exercises in Architecture Learning to Think as an Architect

Identities In-Between in East-Central Europe

Identities In-Between in East-Central Europe

This volume addresses the question of ‘identity’ in East-Central Europe. It engages with a specific definition of ‘sub-cultures’ over the period from c. 1900 to the present and proposes novel ways in which the term can be used with the purpose of understanding identities that do not conform to the fixed standard categories imposed from the top down such as ‘ethnic group’ ‘majority’ or ‘minority’. Instead a ‘sub-culture’ is an identity that sits between these categories. It may blend languages e. g. dialect forms cultural practices ethnic and social identifications or religious affiliations as well as concepts of race and biology that similarly sit outside national projects. | Identities In-Between in East-Central Europe

Physics and Metaphysics in Descartes and in his Reception

Physics and Metaphysics in Descartes and in his Reception

This volume explores the relationship between physics and metaphysics in Descartes’ philosophy. According to the standard account Descartes modified the objects of metaphysics and physics and inverted the order in which these two disciplines were traditionally studied. This book challenges the standard account in which Descartes prioritizes metaphysics over physics. It does so by taking into consideration the historical reception of Descartes and the ways in which Descartes himself reacted to these receptions in his own lifetime. The book stresses the diversity of these receptions by taking into account not only Cartesianisms but also anti-Cartesianisms and by showing how they retroactively highlighted different aspects of Descartes’ works and theoretical choices. The historical aspect of the volume is unique in that it not only analyzes different constructions of Descartes that emerged in the 18th 19th and 20th centuries but also reflects on how his work was first read by philosophers across Europe. Taken together the essays in this volume offer a fresh and up-to-date contribution to this important debate in early modern philosophy. | Physics and Metaphysics in Descartes and in his Reception

Man in His Original Dignity Legal Ethics in France

Man in His Original Dignity Legal Ethics in France

This title was first published in 2001. This work explores the professional standards of the French bar as it moves rapidly but with misgivings into a world of competition organization and globalism. It focuses on the ideology of French legal ethics in its historical and social contexts rather than the details of the rules governing avocats. Those rules are technical and in many respects similar to the rules in effect in the USA. But lawyers in France and the United States base their rules on strikingly different pictures of lawyers. French avocats classify their duties as a series of virtues - probity honour and delicacy - to follow one official formulation. By contrast lawyers in the USA to judge from the way they justify their rules consider their fellows scoundrels who without regulation would cheat their clients opposing parties and other lawyers. The author's goal is to describe in their cultural and institutional contexts the professional ideals of the French bar as it remembers its past and faces its future. | Man in His Original Dignity Legal Ethics in France
