It impacts not only cities but also the network of social and ecological systems well beyond their borders. In contrast to the complexity of today's urbanization, the concept of the "Eco-City", arguably dating back to the ideal of the 19th Century Garden City, seems like an overly simplistic and utopian vision. Yet, the imagery and language of an idealized "Eco-City" continue to shape the planning and design of contemporary cities while disregarding the vital complexity of contemporary urban conditions and issues. This symposium will examine today's multifaceted urban environment in order to explore emerging theories and practices that will enable us to address these critical issues. Specifically, it investigates three areas of knowledge and practices: emergent ecologies, emergent cities, and emergent tactics.</div>  </div> Keynote address - Kongjian Yu<br /> <br /> Emerging Ecologies</div> Jane Wolff, Kristina Hill and Ken Yocom (moderator)<br /> While early attempts to conceptualize urban ecological conditions primarily focused on traditional ecological methods and subjects, a new paradigm is emerging that embraces the complexity and uncertainty associated with coupled human/natural systems. This session explores the relationships between environment, equity, economy, and design in our rapidly urbanizing world.<br /> <br /> Emerging Cities</div> Chelina Odbert and Jennifer Toy, Viren Brahmbahatt, Alfredo Brillembourg and Ben Spencer (moderator)<br /> This session examines the dynamics and implications of rapid urban growth in the emerging mega-cities of the global south. Critically engaging issues of environmental resilience and social equity as they relate to urban form at multiples scales, it explores the present and potential evolution of design, technology, policy and practice in these contexts.<br /> <br /> Emerging Tactics</div> John Bela, Nicholas de Monchaux, Denise Hoffman Brandt and Jeff Hou (moderator)<br /> This session focuses on new approaches to remaking the urban environment that are distinct from the paradigm of master planning and conventional practice of design. It examines how seeing the urban landscape as a set of systemic and interactive matrices with interconnected and spontaneous possibilities can inspire new approaches and methods in design and implementation.</div>  </div> Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource aménagement urbain croissance urbaine eco-city écologie urbaine écoquartier environnement urbain équité sociale pays en développement urbanisation ville durable Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

At the same time, city streets, the anonymity of crowds, and a fascination for ‘observation’ were characteristic preoccupations of many photographers, artists and filmmakers. More recently, the narrative position of the flâneur – a combination of critical distance andtotal immersion – has become a feature of travel writing in an increasingly mobile, globalized world.<br /> <br /> The seminar series will explore aspects of this fascinating theme from the nineteenth century to the present day, with a lecture on Wednesday, January 18, by Dr Hannah Thompson exploring the figure of the flâneur through the work of French poet Charles Baudelaire and German theorist Walter Benjamin.<br /> <br /> Dr Thompson’s lecture, ‘Two Parisian re-writings of the flâneur: the failure and the planner’, will identify two other figures who must negotiate the muddy streets of the capital in order to achieve financial and sexual success.</div>  </div> <b>Hannah Thompson </b>is Senior Lecturer in the School of Modern Languages, Literatures and Cultures at Royal Holloway, University of London.</div>  </div> Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource Baudelaire Charles Benjamin Walter flâneur histoire urbaine littérature Paris rue Thompson Hannah Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Environmental Urbanism acknowledges and embraces the relationships between people and their material surroundings. This session will explicitly consider how the human processes of city making involve an ongoing negotiation with various non-human elements-- soils, water, atmosphere, and animals. By considering the intended and unintended effects of urbanization, our goal is to better understand how and to what extent we can intentionally shape future urban landscapes.</div>  </div> <b>Chris Reed</b> is an Adjunct Associate Professor of Landscape Architecture at Harvard University’s Graduate School of Design, and founding principal of Stoss Landscape Urbanism.</div> <b>Randolph T.

Despite the fact that cities are considered to be dynamic, innovative and flexible spaces, never finished but always under construction, it is very difficult to change existing urban structures. Cities become fixed, obdurate, securely anchored in their own histories as well as in the histories of their surroundings. Yet, if cities fall victim to a disaster, change of urban structures is sudden, unexpected and often seen as undesirable. At the same time, it is argued that urban disasters can bring about urban innovation and that cities can even benefit from them. The talk will discuss how cities cope with obduracy and vulnerability. Why is it so difficult to bring about urban innovation once urban structures are in place? How do cities respond to urban disasters? How can we explain the ‘rhetoric of innovation’ in cases of urban disaster? These issues will be discussed in relation to theories of obduracy and vulnerability in cities and illustrated with empirical cases.<br /> <br /> <b>Anique Hommels</b> is associate professor at the Department of Technology & Society Studies, Maastricht University, the Netherlands.

Gentrification has its supporters as well as its opponents. It can bring wealth, social and environmental improvements, but it can also displace or exclude communities and bring small businesses to ruin. This discussion looks at the impact of gentrification on the demographics and shape of London, as well as the winners and losers. The speakers included Professor <b>Chris Hamnett</b> (King's College, London), <b>Tom Hunter</b> (photographer) and <b>David Partridge </b>(Joint Chief Executive, Argent).

It has provoked questions about the power of, and lack of control exerted over those who influence our economy. Because economic power in London is centralised mainly within the square mile, this relatively small geographical area wields an overwhelming command over not only the rest of London, but far beyond. We have witnessed the fall-out from this economic clout recently, but there are also benefits to living in a world financial centre. Does the City threaten or contribute to the city that houses it?
