La Escultura Urbana,

La Escultura Urbana, Fernando Carrión Mena Arq.
Fernando Carrión Mena
No hay ciudades sin esculturas, aunque no siempre las esculturas fueron urbanas; para que ello ocurra transcurrió mucho tiempo. Los tradicionales monumentos de las urbes, propios de una época de la historia, fueron principalmente de los héroes militares subidos en briosos corceles o de bustos de autoridades políticas ubicados en avenidas y plazas solo para la contemplación. Después llegaron los monumentos con otros motivos y con otros protagonistas de exaltación, pero en los mismos lugares y sobre los mismos pedestales inaccesibles. Ahora aparece un nuevo momento: paso del monumento a la escultura, que ya no es en la ciudad sino …

Lo que está ocurriendo en el mundo árabe (Siria, Libia), el derrocamiento de Mubarak en Egipto, las movilizaciones contra Sarkozy o las estudiantiles en Inglaterra e Italia parecen haber llegado a España; pero no para quedarse allí, sino para regarse inconteniblemente por el mundo: Berlín, Paris, Londres, Lisboa en Europa; Nueva York y México, Bogotá y Buenos Aires en América, entre muchas ciudades. El escenario de la protesta son las ciudades y dentro de ellas, es el espacio público con mayor carga simbólica: la plaza o la calle frente a las Embajadas de España. En Madrid el epicentro de la …

La (In) Consulta, Fernando Carrión Mena
Fernando Carrión Mena
En el fútbol es ampliamente conocido el aforismo popular que dice: el buen arbitro es aquel que no se lo siente. Trasladado este dicho al ámbito de la política actual en el país, podríamos decir que el Consejo Nacional Electoral (CNE) se lo ha sentido en demasía en la Consulta Popular del 7 de mayo. La confianza sobre este árbitro se ha resquebrajado fuertemente, al extremo que se siente su desinstitucionalización y deslegitimidad. Pero también tenemos que el resultado de las empresas encuestadoras, nuevamente, no han funcionado. Es más, el exit poll de Santiago Pérez ha sido un verdadero desastre, …
¿Prevenir O Gobernar La Violencia?,

¿Prevenir O Gobernar La Violencia?, Fernando Carrión Mena Arq.
Fernando Carrión Mena
Un fantasma se cierne sobre América Latina: el fantasma de la violencia. Contra este fantasma se han conjurado en santa unión todos los organismos de cooperación internacional, los gobiernos de nuestros países, los partidos políticos de todos los signos, los medios de comunicación y las sociedades victimizadas.
Es un fantasma porque es la imagen de las personas muertas que, según dicen, se les aparecen permanentemente a los vivos; y se les aparece como percepción porque existe un crecimiento significativo de las tasas de homicidio, que en veinticinco años se han duplicado: se pasó de los 12 homicidios por cien mil …
The Impacts Of Road Capacity Removal,

University of Connecticut - Storrs
The Impacts Of Road Capacity Removal, Jason E. Billings
Master's Theses
The road infrastructure of North America is aging, and many governments are faced with a critical decision: do we repair or remove freeways from our urban centers? Freeway repair is exceptionally expensive, but removing a freeway is widely seen as a risky venture which may result in negative traffic effects. Therefore, it is necessary to gain a clearer understanding of how removing road capacity effects traffic distribution. Three freeway segments were ultimately selected for case study analysis: two in San Francisco and one in Milwaukee. This analysis consisted of identifying changes in the traffic volumes and volume-capacity (V/C) ratios in …

Hemos llegado al final del referéndum y la consulta popular, convocadas por el Consejo Nacional Electoral, ante solicitud de la Presidencia de la República. Son 10 preguntas divididas en dos: las primeras como enmiendas Constitucionales y las otras, destinadas a captar la opinión de la población. Son cuatro temas centrales: justicia penal, libertad de expresión, enriquecimiento ilícito y muerte de animales en espectáculos públicos.
En el Ecuador las Consultas o Plebiscitos han sido presentados bajo la óptica jurídica, cuando en realidad el origen y los efectos han sido fundamentalmente políticos. Esta ocasión no ha sido diferente. Desde el principio, el …

Reclaiming a Brownfield in Greenfield, Massachusetts
Abstract:
For the senior capstone project at the University of Massachusetts, this student completed a conceptual site design project for the City of Greenfield. The City of Greenfield wishes to redevelop the Brownfield site, currently known as the Bendix Property, into an eco- industrial park. Working closely with the City’s officials, the student created a realistic vision for the site. After twenty years of soil and groundwater treatment, the site is ready to come back to life. The student investigated what an eco -industrial park is, and how the businesses cooperate …

Landscape Architecture & Regional Planning Studio and Student Research and Creative Activity
Monatiquot River has played an important role in the Town of Braintree’s great industrial history. Over time, people’s relationship with the river has evolved from daily necessity and industrial utilitarian usage to scenery and recreational amenity. Currently, there is limited public physical access to the water and a lack of connection to regional greenway system. In addition, the extreme flood in March 2010 signified the prolonged urbanization impacts on floodplains and massive impervious surfaces in the watershed. Under the climate change effects, Braintree is likely to face more frequent and severe storms that affect safety and welfare of the increasing …

Honors Capstone Projects - All
The contention of this thesis is that large-scale infrastructures, such as highway systems, energy networks, or water supply complexes – as well as more abstract infrastructures, such as the infrastructures of capitalism or mercantilism – have, as the ‘harbingers’ of Modernity, an indelible impact upon the lives of the human beings who exist under their influence. Eradicating the traditional way of life that preceded them, these structures provide only one point of reference: the unknown future, in which the human struggles to find an identity.
Recent recuperations of infrastructures illustrate how the transformation of former agents of alienation can build …

This paper looks into the issue of Saudi Arabia becoming an active player within globalization. The context of entering into globalization for Saudi Arabia is harnessing the tenets of higher education. In its history Saudi Arabia traditionally practiced gendersegregated education. Saudi Arabia has made a bold attempt in its education practice to allow coeducation to take place at one of their universities. This university seeks to become a global leader in the area of science and technology, thereby providing Saudi Arabia with the beginnings of a global city. Designing a global city out of a society with a gender-segregated lifestyle …
