Is it really Europe's only global city? What is the impact of massive regeneration projects?<br /> <br /> These are some of the questions that civic leaders, city-builders, architects and academics from around the world asked when they meet in London from 11 to 13 November 2005. The Mayors of Washington DC, Sao Paulo, Amsterdam, Barcelona and Edinburgh joined world-renowned urbanists Richard Rogers, Rem Koolhaas and Saskia Sassen to debate the future of a city facing momentous growth.</div>  </div> Core themes included how quality of life can be maintained by promoting health; and city environments that work for people of different generations and incomes.<br /> <br /> To better understand the social impacts of current trends in London’s labour markets, housing, transport and public life, the Urban Age conference investigated the following key projects in North, South, West and East London:<br /> <br /> 1. The redevelopment of White City and the formation of a knowledge-based economic cluster in West London<br /> 2. The transformation of King’s Cross<br /> 3. The Olympic Village and its legacy in the development of affordable housing in diverse and attractive neighbourhoods in the Lower Lea Valley in East London<br /> 4.

What is a "Beirut normal"? Is it worth examining? The lecture puts forward these questions not in order to diminish the city's architectural output but to reveal aspects of the city that have been overwhelmed by the discourses of war and politics. Through a series of specific architectural and urban analyses, the lecture proposes that a certain urbanism could be derived out of seemingly unrelated attributes of the city such as the speculative intensities of development, Beirut's geography between countryside and Mediterranean, and its insatiable pursuit of "a worldly aesthetic."<br /> <br /> Cities are the magnets for more than half the world's population. In such urban conditions, architects are increasingly called into debates about environmental and social sustainability, governance, and social inequality. Shaping Cities is an Urban Age public lecture series organised by LSE Cities that identifies the growing complexity of architectural practice in relation to the challenges of exponential urbanism.</div>  </div> <b>Hashim Sarkis</b> is the Aga Khan Professor of Landscape Architecture and Urbanism, Graduate School of Design, Harvard University.</div>  </div>  </div> Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource Beirut Beyrouth développement urbain géographie urbaine guerre histoire urbaine identité reconstruction Sarkis Hashim Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

With Peter Hall, Julia Merritt and Greg Woolf.</p> <p>The story of cities is widely held to begin in the 8th millennium BC in Mesopotamia. By 4000 BC, there were cities in the Indus Valley, by 3000 BC in Egypt, and by 2000 BC in China. What happened in the west was the furthest ripple of that phenomenon.</p> <p>In 1000 BC Athens still only had a population of one thousand. At its height, Athens' position as a powerful Mediterranean trading city allowed it to become the birthplace of much that would later characterise western cities, from politics through architecture to culture.</p> <p>Then, early in the first millenium AD, the world saw its first million-strong city: Rome. Maintaining a population of this size required stupendous feats of organisation and ingenuity. But in following centuries, as Rome declined and fell, the city itself, in the west at least, declined too; power emanated from kings and their mobile courts, rather than particular settlements.</p> <p>In China, urban trading posts continued to flourish, but their innovative energy dwindled before the end of the first millennium.</p> <p>Between 1150 and the onset of the Black Death in 1350, the city underwent a resurgence in Europe. City-states developed in Italy and in Germany.</p> <p>At this stage, there was no omnipotent power-centre to match Ancient Rome. But with the growth of sea and then ocean trade, and the centralisation of power in capitals ruling nation-states, cities like London, Paris, Madrid, Amsterdam and St Petersburg became increasingly wealthy, dynamic and ostentatious. By 1801, one of these - London - finally matched Ancient Rome's peak population of a million.</p> <p>Along the way, the city had become an ideal to be revered and a spectre to be feared.</p> <p><b>Melvyn Bragg </b>is an author, broadcaster and media personality.</p> <p><b>Peter Hall</b> is Professor of Planning and Regeneration at The Bartlett School of Planning, University College London.</p> <p><b>Julia Merritt</b> is Associate Professor of History at the University of Nottingham.</p> <p><b>Greg Woolfis</b> is Professor of Ancient History at the University of St Andrews.</p> </div> Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource Bragg Melvyn cité genèse des villes Hall Peter histoire urbaine Merritt Julia Woolfis Greg Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The former we take to be the bottom-up products of everyday life, the latter the top-down constructs of rational minds. But which actually works best? New kinds of spatial analysis developed at UCL show that organic cities have their own kind of ‘probabilistic’ geometry, which is also imposed by human minds, though in a step-by-step way, and which leads to emergent forms in many ways better than regular grids at doing what cities do.</div>  </div> <b>Bill Hillier</b> is Professor of Architectural and Urban Morphology at the Bartlett, University College London, and author of the book 'Space is the Machine'. </div>  </div> link</a>.</div>  </div> Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource aménagement urbain analyse spatiale forme urbaine géographie urbaine Hillier Bill histoire de l'urbanisme morphologie urbaine philosophie ville idéale Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

But what is 'the rule of law'? Does any formal legal system qualify - or must it have specific requirements? If there are specific requirements, who says what they are? Does the rule of law inhibit - or does it encourage - the extent of privatisation of urban space? Does it require the abolition of informal settlements and businesses or allow them? This lecture will investigate whether the contested notion of the rule of law contributes to thinking about urban form.</div>  </div> <b>Gerald Frug</b> is Louis D Brandeis Professor of Law at Harvard Law School.</div>  </div> Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource aménagement de l'espace aménagement urbain développement urbain droit forme urbaine Frug Gerald privatisation Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Nevertheless, we are witnessing increasing fragmentation and seclusion, which threatens the existence of the open city. Suburban compounds, gated communities, university campuses, covered shopping malls, urban entertainment areas, airport security zones, holiday resorts, all tend to develop into privatized and controlled zones, which are connected with the city at large by a limited number of corridors and access points. Public space - traditionally understood as the ultimate space of social encounter and equality - is being eroded by commerce, changing lifestyles and functionality. This lecture will address whether these conditions are destroying the sensible tissue of the open city, which are intended to encourage social interaction and balance. Are cities degenerating into secluded islands that denying a balanced urban totality? And how might the open city react to these developments?</div>  </div> <b>Kees Christaanse</b> is Professor of Architecture and Urban Design at the ETH Zurich and the founder of KCAP, which has offices in Rotterdam, Zurich and London.
