State- vs. community-led land tenure regularization in Tanzania

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Land tenure security for the poor residents of informal settlements is a critical factor in facilitating access to housing and livelihood opportunities. In Dar es Salaam, many households live in informal settlements, where their land rights are not recognized by the state. Tenure regularization offers one possible solution to the problem. However, regularization presents unique challenges. This study analyses efforts by both state and community agents in undertaking tenure regularization within the framework of recent land law reforms in Tanzania. The study reveals that the objectives pursued under the state-sponsored projects through the award of Residential Licenses fail to recognize the perceptions of tenure security prevailing among residents, and may instead beset household efforts at settlement improvement owing to the limited benefits bestowed by the licenses awarded under the 1999 Land Act. On the other hand, community-led regularization schemes present residents with the promise of higher levels of tenure security and more benefits compared to the licenses, but suffer from unclear policy guidelines and direction from the state. ····· 1036187583

Urbanisation is the future of mankind. The increasing urbanisation is irreversible and inescapable. Slums have come to form an integral part of the phenomena of urbanization particularly in developing countries. The world s slum population is expected to reach 889 million by the year 2020(UN HABITAT). It may be a long way to reach the goal of millennium as cities free of slums , but at least the beginning can be no planning for cities without including slums . The present study is just an earnest attempt in this direction. This is just the beginning. ····· 1036187580

This study was carried out to examine the effects of Non-timber forest products (NTFPs) on rural women income in Ife South Local Government area of Osun State, Nigeria. A sample of 90 respondents were randomly selected from five (5) of the eleven (11) wards. Data were collected and analyzed using frequency counts, percentage and econometric model. The mean age of the respondents is 40.76 years, majority (70%) of them were married, and the mean value of the years of the experience is 15.46 years. The distribution according to the data collected is tri-modal. Equal number of people collect seasonal fruits, leaves and snails with 16.7% each of the total population. The mean value of the income from other occupation is N 1955.14, while the mean value of the income from NTFPS activities is N 3352.22. The major effect (58.9%) deforestation has on NTFPS activities in the non-availability of the NTFPS. The study discovered that there is a positive and significant relationship between the years of education, total cost and income earned from NTFPs activities, and a significant but negative association with distance from forest to point of sale with income from NTFPs. ····· 1036187476

Making a Point

We are entering an age of hyper-connectivity. Due to improvements in our mobility and communication, our action radius within the last decades has greatly increased. Mobility is considered to be a necessity for participation in our current society the Network Society. This book explains why the spatial form of the Network Society, the urban network, should be the framework for urban interventions, including urban regeneration and in particular Transit Orientated Development (TOD). It tries to find, within the framework of the urban network, the potential distribution of a TOD in the process of urban regeneration. The generated knowledge is tested in a case study the Zeeburgerpad in Amsterdam. The research consists of a literature review, a location analysis of Zeeburgerpad, a network analysis of the urban network of Amsterdam, an analysis on the architectural expression of transits and the translation of all these studies into a design of a transferium at the Zeeburgerpad. ····· 1036187467

Bloggers` Right to the City

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Faced with formidable challenges to expression in Cairo`s public spaces, urban blogger activists have developed new means of articulating dissent with spatial tactics from boycott campaigns, cyber-activism and protest art to innovations in mobilisation, modes of communication and organisational flexibility. Urban blogger activists have transformed Spaces of Freedom into heterotopian zones for public protest, employing urban installations and street graffiti, prompting the construction of a significant site of urban resistance and spatial contestation. This was particularly evident during January 2011 pro-democracy street rallies and sit-ins within Cairo s Tahrir Square, this part of the city being regarded as a contested site for collective action and as a symbolic space for urban youth`s political participation and spatial appropriation. The emergence of this grassroots street activism opens up a new public sphere through which the role of urban governance might be contested to accommodate cultural identities within various forms of spatiality and popular democracy. ····· 1036187176

Assessing `Ordenamiento Territorial` at Municipal level, Bolivia

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The concept and policy of sustainable development and the decentralization process, that both attracted serious attention for more than fifteen years now, after the UN Conference on Environment and Development in Rio de Janeiro / Brazil (1992) and after the creation of the Ministry of Environment in Bolivia (1994), contributed strongly to the development of a new planning tool in Bolivia. This introduced tool, Ordenamiento Territorial (OT), is a type of land use planning common in a number of Latin American countries. This policy and planning tool was designed to address the spatial gap and the lack of integration left by previous traditional strategic planning and sectoral planning approaches prevalent at that time in Bolivia. The OT was introduced at three administrative levels (national, departmental and municipal). Despite the theoretical advantages and benefits of OT processes and plans, the implementation in Bolivia still remains hesitant. In order to find out the reasons behind the slow progress of the OT in Bolivia, especially at the municipal level, this study is focused to understand the general OT structure and to assess the OT Municipal Plan as a plan and its process. ····· 1036187010

Participatory Delivery of Built Spaces for Social Infrastructure

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Access to physical & social infrastructure is required for social development and is not obtained easily by either public action or private action alone. Over the years, policies in India regarding provision of social infrastructure have undergone many changes. In this process, government agencies are undergoing a change of role: from provider to facilitator . Role of the community & other stakeholders, in turn, have expanded significantly. This work explores the nature of participatory processes involved and in particular, the efficacy of community participation in developing community assets. It focuses on built-spaces related to school building infrastructure for elementary education in India. It analyses the impact on design layouts, geographical distribution in a region as an indicator of access and comparative achievement of quality of the assets in different contexts, viz., urbanization levels or existence of a strong opposition of Naxalism to regular developmental efforts. The analyses and discussions presented should prove useful to regional development planners, policy makers, architects, social workers and researchers in social studies & allied disciplines. ····· 1036186954

Planning African rural towns

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
In the last few years academic research and urban development projects have underlined the important role of African small towns in promoting the growth of the surrounding rural areas and in reversing the polarization trend of major urban centres. Nevertheless, exploring the particular nature of these towns which the majority of African population lives in or refers to is still an unsolved issue. This book describes the main characteristics and urbanization trends of African rural towns. These are defined as a particular typology of human settlement that is characterized by a hybrid settlement pattern, in which persisting elements of the rural world melt together with emerging urban features. Moreover, a conceptual and methodological framework is proposed, that aims to support the spatial planning activity in the rural towns of local administrators and technicians, to whom recent public sector reforms have assigned this responsibility for the first time. The research is based on accurate literature review and in-the-field research that was conducted by the author in Caia and Sena, two small towns situated in the rural Mozambique. ····· 1036186691

Decision Making in Urban Development Projects Using PPGIS

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The urban planning has been always implemented through the cooperation of the planners and politicians without taking into consideration the community needs, some cases have proven their failure as the community usually tries to fulfill their needs which in terms results in unorganized actions and unsustainable development. This research mainly focuses on the participation process and community needs. The main objective is to use public participatory GIS as a state-of-the-art tool in involving the community in the decision making of an urban development process in order to sustain this process. Although PPGIS system seems to be a very promising technology, several obstacles could withdraw this process in Egypt such as lack of IT knowledge to most of the citizens, the complexity of the urban tissue in several urban areas, and the miscommunication between decision makers and the community. This research handles the possibility of implementing the public participatory GIS in the case of evacuating the capital from governmental buildings and re-allocating them outside the capital based on specialists` studies and the public`s needs. ····· 1036186535

Value Capture for Funding Mass Transit Infrastructure

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Mass transit projects are developing everywhere, and specifically Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) systems are taking place in many countries. Funding such projects is a big issue for public entities. Value capture is an option. It is the process by which a portion or all increments in land value attributed to community efforts are recouped by the public sector. A research of several value capture mechanisms for funding transit projects is carried out throughout this report. More than 20 tools are described. These instruments can be divided in three groups: i) value capture from the developers, ii) value capture from the community and iii) value capture from within . Using the case of Colombian first BRT project (held in Bogota) I suggest value capture instruments and mechanisms to be implemented in the city as a way to help funding the infrastructure of the system. Lessons can be learned to find new sources of funding mass transit projects around the globe. ····· 1036186533

Ländliche Räume im demographischen Wandel: Auswirkungen und Handlungsansätze in Nordrhein-Westfalen

····· lezzter Preis 24.00€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Das Thema der vorliegenden Bachelorarbeit sind die Auswirkungen und Herausforderungen des demographischen Wandels in den ländlichen Räumen in Nordrhein-Westfalen. Die Arbeit beschäftigt sich schwerpunktmäßig mit zwei Themenbereichen, einerseits mit dem demographischen Wandel und andererseits mit dem ländlichen Raum. Das Hauptaugenmerk liegt insgesamt auf der Darstellung und kritischen Betrachtung der regionalen Maßnahmen, die derzeit ergriffen werden, um dem demographischen Wandel in den ländlichen Räumen zu begegnen. Zunächst werden die Grundlagen des demographischen Wandels im Allgemeinen behandelt. Es wird die Situation in Deutschland und anschließend in Nordrhein-Westfalen dargestellt. Dabei geht es insgesamt darum, die Zusammenhänge und Komponenten des demographischen Wandels zu veranschaulichen, um auf dieser Basis im weiteren Verlauf auf die speziellen demographischen Situationen in den ländlichen Räumen von Nordrhein-Westfalen eingehen zu können. Anschließend werden der Begriff und die Funktionen des ländlichen Raums erläutert. Diese Darstellung soll dazu dienen, die ländlichen Räume in Nordrhein-Westfalen sinnvoll und begründet abzugrenzen. Im Hauptteil werden schließlich die Auswirkungen des demographischen Wandels und die verschiedenen regionalen Handlungsansätze in den drei ausgewählten ländlichen Räumen von Nordrhein-Westfalen dargestellt. Abschließend folgt eine kritische Betrachtung der Handlungsansätze. ····· 1036173815

Räumliche Differenzierung und lokale Entwicklung

····· lezzter Preis 23.50€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Die Länder Südosteuropas sind von enormen regionalen Ungleichheiten geprägt. Diese sozioökonomischen Polarisierungen können sowohl auf globale Zusammenhänge und eine sich weiter ausdifferenzierende Wirtschaft als auch auf langanhaltende Folgen der jeweiligen postsozialistischen Transformationen zurückgeführt werden. Besonders zu bewerten sind jene Prozesse in Serbien. Hier bestanden zum einen durch den jugoslawischen `Marktsozialismus` gute Ausgangsvoraussetzungen für Reformen zum anderen wurde das Land durch die ein Jahrzehnt andauernde Isolation und Desintegration wirtschaftlich und gesellschaftlich weit zurückgeworfen. Die Diskrepanz zwischen einer unterbrochenen bzw. verzögerten Transformation einerseits und den Erfordernissen globaler Integration andererseits spiegelt sich in den räumlichen Disparitäten des krisengebeutelten Landes wider. Detaillierte Analysen zu einzelnen Gemeinden offenbaren dabei einen belastbaren Blick auf die gesamte Bandbreite divergenter Entwicklungspfade innerhalb dieses Kontextes. Insbesondere auf der lokalen Ebene lassen sich die strukturellen und institutionellen Ursachen der räumlichen Ausdifferenzierung und damit des Niedergangs der einen oder des Aufschwungs der anderen Kommune unmittelbar identifizieren. Weit zurückreichende Pfadabhängigkeiten sowie eine Folge von Reorganisationen und Rekombinationen können lokale Investitionsmöglichkeiten schaffen oder verhindern, während verfestigte industrielle Strukturen oft zu lokalen Krisen führen, jedoch auch alternative Formen des lokalen Wirtschaftens hervorbringen können. ····· 1036171410

Festschrift mit Fachbeiträgen aus 30 Jahren
Renaturierung und Revitalisierung einer Flusslandschaft
Metamorphose vom Industriegebiet zur modernen Metropolregion
Vor 120 Jahren, am 14. Dezember 1899, wurde die Emschergenossenschaft gegründet. Die Geburtsstunde von Deutschlands erstem Wasserwirtschaftsverband war eine Zwangsentscheidung - aber eine, die das Überleben der Region gesichert hat. Um den Abwassermissstand im Revier in den Griff zu bekommen, baute die Emschergenossenschaft in der ersten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts das Emscher-System von Grund auf um. Der Fluss als offener Schmutzwasserlauf, eingeengt in ein Korsett aus Beton, hat das Bild der Region im 20. Jahrhundert maßgeblich geprägt und war vielerorts Teil des Stadtbildes.
Im Rahmen des Strukturwandels kam schließlich auch der Emscher eine neue Rolle zu. Die Renaturierung und die Revitalisierung der Flusslandschaft wurden zu einem symbolträchtigen Vorhaben und gingen einher mit der Metamorphose des Reviers vom Industriegebiet zu einer modernen Metropolregion.
Das Buch versammelt anlässlich des Jubiläums eine Vielzahl von Fachbeiträgen, die über eine Zeitspanne von 30 Jahren entstanden sind. In ihrer Gesamtheit dokumentieren sie die unterschiedlichen Perspektiven auf den Emscher-Umbau und die massiven Anstrengungen, die nötig sind, um ein komplettes Gewässersystem mitten in einem der größten Ballungsräume Europas umzugestalten. ····· 1036161789

New Cairo`s Fragmented City

····· lezzter Preis 44.10€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This book examines the housing crisis within Greater Cairo s metropolitan communities. The impact of the Greater Cairo Master Plan and New Towns Policy on the housing crisis is investigated focusing especially on New Cairo City, to the east of downtown Cairo. New Cairo City was established as a result of merging Greater Cairo Master Plan s three eastern New Settlements, creating a large suburban community. To a certain extent New Cairo City, whilst replicating old social divisions and unresolved housing problems and ghettoisation, would appear to encapsulate most of the features and problems of Greater Cairo s urban situation. New Cairo s contested City is made up of diverse fragmented settlements ranging from up-market private gated communities incorporating upper middle class residents and property speculators, and decaying and inadequate resettlement housing for the relocated urban poor who often prefer to return to their inner city informal housing. ····· 1036125726

Evolution of Cities

It is not hard to notice the role of city planning in forming the spirit of the city and the people within it. This book, therefore, aims to introduce an overview of the origin, growth and development of cities throughout the history and highlight the role that city planning had played in the formation of human civilization. It examines the various socioeconomic, historic, political and environmental forces that help explain city form and presents some prominent examples of sites and cities from ancient times to the present. It also tries to answer some questions concerning the social contribution of city planning, the effect that it has on people`s behavior and the relationship that it had with `civilizing` the community and shaping its character. The book is particularly useful for those, who are interested in the history of city planning and students, who are studying architectural history or planning history. ····· 1036125653
