Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 6 November 2007 Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context http://www.uic.edu/cuppa/gci/whatwedo/eventsarchive/events0708/2007global_south.shtml Description An account of the resource <div><b>Organisers' description :</b></div>  </div> The scholarship with regard to the process of urbanization in the context of globalization has been dominated by the "global cities" paradigm in which Saskia Sassen outlines the increasing centrality of cities as they become "command centers" in the expansion of global capitalism, destabilizing the older networks of governance that are embodied in the nation-state. As a result, much of the theorization on urbanization in the recent past has been focused on cities in the developed regions of the world such as New York, London and Tokyo that serve as the material and symbolic sites for global economic production. The cities of the developing countries therefore remain marginal to this theorization of the urban, either defined by the lack of full-scale globalization, or through processes that mimic the developments in the core, or as sites of increasing chaos, poverty and inequality.<br /> <br /> This panel discussion brings together a diverse group of PhD students at UIC, from the fields of urban planning and design, criminal justice and public administration, conducting research in the cities of the global south. While their approaches might vary, they are all engaged in contributing to the production of knowledge on newly emerging global urban agglomerations and the concurrent shifts in the political economy, particularly urban governance. This reflects a demographic transformation of historical proportions wherein the majority of the world's urban dwellers will be in cities of the developing countries. Two-thirds of the world's urban population growth will be occurring in the cities of the developing regions of the world, bringing about rapid uneven distribution of incomes, the proliferation of slum cities, rising demand for urban infrastructure and investment -– physical and social. The discussants will debate some of the emerging contradictions and tensions faced by the cities of the global south and locate areas of further research. The thrust will be on the possibilities of constructing alternative theories of understanding this massive urban change.<br /> <br /> Ratoola Kundu will be presenting on the transformations that take place at the urban fringes and the practices of informality that shape it and are in turn regulated by the policies of the local government as well as global flows of economic investment, using the case of the fringes of Kolkata in India as an illustration.<br /> <br /> Kamna Lal will be investigating semi-formal institutional arrangement for delivery of urban environmental services in an Indian city and drawing out the changes in the relationship between political economy and the ecology of the city in a liberalizing environment.<br /> <br /> Meng Sun’s presentation is on the possible material and social impacts of the Olympic 2008 summer games on the city of Beijing and the significance of "event" or spectacle driven development of urban centers.<br /> <br /> Lan Wang will be dealing with the emergence of new global urban planning and design practices that are being rapidly transplanted into the New Towns of China's urban regions and the kinds of political, economic, socio-cultural changes that drive and are in turn shaped by these design practices of producing "global cities".<br /> <br /> Barry Weisberg will be presenting on the need to reformulate an understanding of what constitutes safety and security with respect to urban populations and infrastructure of the mega cities in developing countries, focusing on Shanghai.</div>  </div> <b>Ratoola Kundu, Kamna Lal, Meng Sun, Lan Wang </b>and <b>Barry Weisberg</b> are PhD students at the University of Illinois at Chicago.</div> <b>David C.

By asking what leads developers to build more than the market can support, why they build new instead of modernizing older structures,and why some older, "obsolete" buildings are rediscovered, revitalized, and infused with symbolic capital while others are demolished or lay fallow, she argues that the routine professional practices of private real estate actors, financiers, and local governments create incentives for periodic overbuilding. To illustrate these dynamics, she will examine the case of Chicago's Loop during the Millennial boom, roughly 1997 through 2008.</div>  </div> <b>Rachel Weber </b>is Associate Director of Research and Program Development at the Great Cities Institute and Associate Professor of Urban Planning and Policy at the University of Illinois at Chicago.</div>  </div>  </div>  </div> Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource aménagement urbain Chicago développement urbain économie foncier immobilier mutation urbaine Weber Rachel Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Many presentations also have accompanying slideshow presentations available for download in PDF format.<br /> <br /> <b>Organisers' description :</b><br /> <br /> The principal aim of Urban Age is to shape the thinking and practice of urban leaders and sustainable urban development. This six-year conference series – travelling from New York City, Shanghai, London, Mexico City, Johannesburg, Berlin, Mumbai to São Paulo and Istanbul – serves as an ongoing forum about how the city is studied, planned and managed in the 21st century.<br /> <br /> The Urban Age operates as a mobile laboratory, testing and sampling the social and physical characteristics of global cities through expert presentations and testimonials, research, site visits, GIS mapping and informal information exchange. Findings from each of the cities are analysed according to regional patterns in an effort to uncover global similarities and differences. The results help policymakers, academics and urban practitioners understand the future development of cities and the processes that sustain them.</div>  </div> <b>Session topics : </b></div>  </div> Opening session<br /> The Urban Age context<br /> Introducing Mexico City<br /> Labour market and work places<br /> Mobility and transport<br /> Panel 01 - Metropolitan governance<br /> Public life and urban space<br /> Housing and urban neighbourhoods<br /> Panel 02 - Informality<br /> A vision for Mexico</div>  </div> Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource emploi espace urbain gouvernance logement Mexico Mexico City Mexique mobilité planification transport voisinage Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Professor Edgar Pieterse argues for a new way of thinking about African cities to accompany this surge of interest and to replace traditional views of African cities as sites of absence and neglect. Rapid urbanisation along with impressive economic growth rates for much of the Continent represents an interesting moment to take stock of how academic discourses capture and animate African urbanism.</div>  </div> <b>Edgar Pieterse</b> is holder of the NRF South African Research Chair in Urban Policy.
