Over the past 10 years, urban planners, technology companies, and governments have promoted smart cities with a somewhat utopian vision of urban life made knowable and manageable through data collection and analysis. Emerging smart cities have become both crucibles and showrooms for the practical application of the Internet of Things, cloud computing, and the integration of big data into everyday life. Are smart cities optimized, sustainable, digitally networked solutions to urban problems? Or are they neoliberal, corporate-controlled, undemocratic non-places?

Desde tiempos de los iberos y de los celtíberos, los lugares adecuados para la defensa o el ataque se vieron fortificados con construcciones acordes con las técnicas que estos pueblos dominaban. Pero al evolucionar la poliorcética, o arte militar, las construccio­nes militares fueron adquiriendo una nueva fisonomía. La palabra "castellum", de la que se deriva "castillo", es un diminutivo de "castrum", el asentamiento militar romano por excelencia. En principio tuvieron carácter temporal, y fueron instrumentos de ataque más que de defensa.

Historian Annie Gray takes us down the street and through the ages, from medieval marketplaces to the purpose-built concrete precincts of the 20th century. Peeping through the windows of tailors, tearooms and grocers, we explore everything from the toyshops of yesteryear - where curiosities were sold for adults, not children - to the birth of brands we shop at today.

Legal scholar and architect Sara C. Bronin examines how zoning became such a prevailing force and reveals its impact. Outdated zoning codes have maintained racial segregation, prioritized cars over people, and enabled great ecological harm. But, as Bronin argues, once we recognize the power of zoning, we can harness it to create the communities we desire, and deserve. Drawing on her own experience leading the overhaul of Hartford's zoning code and exploring the efforts of activists and city planners across the country, Bronin shows how new codes are reshaping our cities.

Der Prolog ist der Auftakt einer Publikationsreihe von Caspar Schmitz-Morkramer und seinem Architekturstudio caspar: Der Nachhalt. Der Architekt Caspar Schmitz-Morkramer gesteht sich ein, dass er angesichts der eskalierenden Klimakrise seine Haltung überdenken - oder auch erst wirklich entwickeln muss!

With the appearance of Grunch of Giants, R. Buckminster Fuller consummates his literary canon, his panoramic lifetime survey of all aspects of the responsibility of human beings for their own destiny. This book is a modern allegory - his long-gestated myth-of the villainy of capitalism and the fecklessness of classic economics. For Fuller, the academic discipline of economics is irrelevant since it derives from an invalid assumption of scarcity.

Como resultado del desarrollo técnico de los distintos estilos de la Alta Edad Media, hacia el siglo XI aparece un nuevo estilo arquitectónico que va a imponerse definitivamente durante siglos y va a dejar una huella imborrable en la historia de la cultura europea. La arquitectura románica es la mejor muestra del esfuerzo germánico por encontrar un estilo semejante al de los antiguos más desarrollados.

El estilo gótico es el característico de la Baja Edad Media y su representación arquitectónica más importante son las catedrales que definen esta época como el románico había caracterizado a la anterior. La catedral gótica es una obra maestra de la arquitectura de todos los tiempos que ha dejado buenas muestras de su valor en muchas ciudades europeas bajomedievales.

Junto a la gran arquitectura románica que marca indefectiblemente la Europa medieval aparece, como es natural, una escultura y una pintura que la acompaña en toda su extensión. El arte románico se ha convertido en el gran arte altomedieval que fue el resultado del esfuerzo germánico sobre los restos clásicos anteriores.
