Restaurimi Arkitektonik/Urban I “Postës Së Parë” Në Prizren, Labëri Dakaj

Theses and Dissertations

Monumentet e kulturës së një qyteti e kombi janë simbole të rëndësishme që tregojnë vlerat materiale, shpirtërore dhe zhvillimin në shekuj dhe vite. Monumentet e kulturës jo vetëm në perëndim, por edhe në vendet ish-komuniste kanë patur dhe vazhdojnë të kenë një vëmendje të veçantë. Urbanizmi dhe krijimi i “monumenteve” shumë urbane personale, shtëpi banimi shpesh pa asnjë projekt dhe hapësira të tjera urbane, nuk i zëvendëson vlerat e vërteta materiale dhe shpirtërore të një qyteti ose një kulture të caktuar. Shpirti urban dhe urbanizimi material dhe shpirtërorë, nuk takohet vetëm në vendet ish-komuniste. Ky koncept për urbanistikën dhe mënyrën …

State Must Play To Crowd On Renting Or Face The Consequences, Lorcan Sirr 2016 Technological University Dublin

State Must Play To Crowd On Renting Or Face The Consequences, Lorcan Sirr

Media

In 1895, the French polymath Gustave Le Bon published his seminal work, The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind, on the behaviour and danger of crowds. For decades after, Le Bon’s theories influenced generations of politicians and their policies. Le Bon was influential at a time of rapid urbanisation, social upheaval and worker organisation. Social order was under threat and it was feared that “the masses” might break with patriarchy, social order and religion.

How Acoustics In California High Performance Schools Relate To Student Achievement, Devin K. Wong

Durham School of Architectural Engineering and Construction: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

This research project seeks to determine if students attending K–12 schools meeting a minimum standard of high performance classroom conditions in the state of California do evidence higher scholastic achievement, based on publically available results on state-wide standardized tests. In three phases, a subset of 200+ schools applying for grants dedicated to building high performance schools over the past decade was correlated with an existing database of achievement scores for all public schools in California. The criteria utilized to specify high performance classrooms was provided by the California High Performance Initiative (HPI) Grant program. Academic achievement was evaluated on a …

Help-To-Buy Scheme Is Detached From How We Really Live, Lorcan Sirr 2016 Technological University Dublin

Help-To-Buy Scheme Is Detached From How We Really Live, Lorcan Sirr

Media

The government’s help-tobuy scheme, announced in the budget, was rightfully criticised by many people. Various ministers seemed a little surprised, if not a bit tetchy, that fewpeople had rowed in behind their latest genius wheeze. In research carried out by Davy stockbrokers and the property website myhome.ie, even firsttime buyers did not expect a helpto- buy scheme (people are not too easily schmoozed these days). Two other things flew under the radar when the proposal was announced. First, the silence from retail banks was deafening, which was strange given the allegedly positive response from the Central Bank. It nowlooks as …

Unesco World Heritage And Kosovo Towards A Tentative List For Kosovo, Caroline Jaeger Klein 2016 Vienna University of Technology

Unesco World Heritage And Kosovo Towards A Tentative List For Kosovo, Caroline Jaeger Klein

UBT International Conference

In 2015, Kosovo tried to join UNESCO and failed by three quotes. Is Kosovo ready for its UNESCO membership? At least for its national architectural heritage, this question is to answer with no. The intensively discussed issue of the medieval monuments of Kosovo inscribed as UNESCO World Heritage by Serbia and Montenegro before the declaration of independency in 2008 and their further management through Kosovo is just one aspect. More troubling is that the rather young state not yet could establish sufficient structures to gain a systematic inventory of its monuments, sites and historic ensembles, nor to extract a tentative …
