Young Professionals As Ambivalent Change Agents In New Orleans After The 2005 Hurricanes, Renia Ehrenfeucht, Marla Nelson
Renia Ehrenfeucht
After the 2005 hurricanes, newcomers arrived in New Orleans to help rebuild the city. The influx of one identifiable group, young professionals and postgraduates, raised hopes and concerns that New Orleans would gentrify. Based on semistructured interviews with 78 young and mid-career professionals, this paper examines how the young professionals approached an ambivalent situation where they were working to rebuild a better city while retaining its distinct cultural qualities, given that their presence itself contributed to the cultural change. They reconciled these tensions with an appreciation for localism that, for newcomers in particular, was expressed through knowing and responding to …

Sprawl In Canada And The United States, Michael Lewyn
Sprawl In Canada And The United States, Michael Lewyn
Michael E Lewyn
The purpose of this Article is to ascertain whether (1) suburban sprawl is as widespread in Canadian metropolitan areas as in their American counterparts, and (2) Canadian government policies, and in particular Canadian zoning law and transportation policies, encourage sprawl. The article concludes that Canadian metropolitan areas are in fact somewhat less sprawling than most of their American counterparts, but that in Canada, as in the United States, government land use regulation and government transportation policy do favor sprawl to some extent. For example, in both nations municipal zoning regulations, by limiting density and forcing landowners to build parking lots, …
Two Cheers For Instant Runoff Voting, Michael E. Lewyn
Two Cheers For Instant Runoff Voting, Michael E. Lewyn
Michael E Lewyn
In multicandidate elections, an unpopular candidate can often win with a minority of the vote if his or her opponents split their votes among several candidates. To solve this problem, some commentators have endorsed instant runoff voting (IRV). Under IRV, voters rank their choices, and the choices of the weaker candidates would be distributed among the leaders. As a result, a candidate who has a plurality of votes but is opposed by the majority of the electorate would be less likely to prevail. Most law-related scholarship on IRV has either strongly endorsed or strongly opposed IRV. This article, by contrast, …

El Desafío Político De Gobernar Una Ciudad-Región, Fernando Carrión Mena Arq.
Fernando Carrión Mena
América Latina tiene unas 16 mil 500 urbes1, de las cuales 63 tienen más de 1 millón de habitantes, concentran el 41% de la población urbana y tienen una tasa de crecimiento promedio del 2.4%. Luego están las ciudades pequeñas –que van desde 2500 a 500000 habitantes– que crecen a un ritmo del 3.7% y concentran el 49% de la población. Fi- nalmente están las ciudades intermedias que tienen entre los 500000 y un millón de habitantes y que crecen a 1.5 por ciento. De lo anterior, se puede concluir que el universo de ciudades latinoa- mericanas es muy heterogéneo …

Jaime Erazo
Resumen El presente artículo busca aportar elementos analíticos para reconstruir los procesos sociales reales sobre los cuales se cimentan la lógica y las transformaciones del contexto urbano de Quito. Para el efecto se presentarán, bajo una estructura expositiva, las transformaciones históricas de la cuestión urbana en Quito. Asimismo, se caracterizarán los dos períodos principales del desarrollo urbano de la ciudad, el de consolidación del Estado nacional y el de modernización capitalista, ambos en base a sus rasgos más sobresalientes, teniendo como directrices las definiciones de crisis-transición urbana, de forma y organización territorial, de políticas urbanas, de los sectores sociales, entre …

This paper discusses one successful partnership between the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and the City of Springfield in Massachusetts. This collaboration was targeted to benefit the City by helping with their economic revitalization efforts, and the University by giving them a space in downtown Springfield for a ‘Design Center’, where students have a meeting space for studio and field work and can then exhibit their work. The paper ends with a set of principles that can guide other institutions and communities in developing strategic outreach and engagement activities.

Porous capsule irrigation is a modern adaptation of buried clay pot irrigation. Research in Brazil and Mexico has demonstrated its value in improving water use efficiency. Porous capsules are more easily integrated in an irrigation network than buried clay pots.

Nigeria has a rich Islamic manuscript heritage in danger of being lost due to lack of in-country preservation and conservation efforts. Of interest to scholars world-wide, these manuscripts in Arabic script are dispersed throughout Nigerian institutions and private collections. Since 2007 there has been a sustained effort to increase local awareness and Northern Nigerian regional capacity for care, conservation and maintenance of these collections
