Paperback. Condición: New. *** FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request *** - *** IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy, brand new, pristine, never opened -- Text in English. 256 pages; 120 color, 100 b/w illustrations. Description: "The transformation strategies for urban territories in t…he 21st century are displayed in this title after an extensive investigation of the performance of cities in view of resource fluxes - the interplay and transformation of stocks and flows of resources according to changing parameters in time. Specifically, seven trajectories are identified, acknowledging both physiological and morphological transformations of urban systems: stocks and flows of people, water, space, material, capital, information, and energy. The Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) Zurich in collaboration with Addis Ababa University (AAU) and the Ethopian Engineering Capacity Building Program (ECBP) launched the URBAN LABORATORY - ADDIS ABABA as a research initiative for the development of sustainable strategies for urban environments. Rather than upholding an a priori vision of an ideal city, the publication acknowledges the heterogenous and at times messy conditions of urban territories, and makes a case for their transformation over time." -- with a bonus offer--; Economic strengthening and the developments associated with it, such as population growth, rural flight, and the explosive growth of cities, pose enormous challenges for city planners in urban centers throughout the world. But clumsy "test-tube" urban plans like those developed for China in part by German planners have shown that different standards and rules apply in the non-European world than in Europe s organically developed urban structures. This manual analyzes contemporary urban phenomena in economic growth regions using the Ethiopian capital city of Addis Abeba as an example, and presents a catalogue of sustainable strategies for city planning practice in the Second and Third Worlds. In the process, it provides planners with generally applicable methods and tools that are usable at the design stage and equip them to develop and deploy dynamic planning and project management processes. To this end, it illuminates such topical subjects as the changing agrarian and industrial landscape, the activation of urban wastelands, and the increasing density of urban hubs. In addition, it uses real projects as examples to highlight avenues for practical implementation.
