Culture and Sustainable Development in the City
Urban Spaces of Possibilities
AvSacha Kagan
E-bok
PDF, Engelska, 2022
738 kr
Läs direkt efter köp
This book exposes the potential to advance a cultural approach to sustainable urban development. It explores urban "spaces of possibilities" and links them to the seized or missed opportunities for innovative forms of transversal partnerships throughout the city and of culturally sensitive urban policies.
The call for sustainability brings with it challenges for which, in view of the urgency of social transformation, institutional innovations are necessary. Sustainable urban development will only succeed through creative impulses, experiments, trying out innovative ideas, and making alternatives visible, in particular through locally rooted urban initiatives, artistic actions, and social movements. Discussing many concrete examples from several years of empirical research in the cities of Hanover and Hamburg (Germany), Baltimore and Chicago (USA), Bangalore (India), St. Petersburg (Russia), Singapore, and Vancouver (Canada), the book connects urban spaces and their actors; looks at their guiding principles, strategies, and concrete practices; and identifies new levers, networks, and alliances. Readers will find in this book not only inspiring examples of culture in everyday life in the city but also explanations about the qualities that make local cultural initiatives especially full of potentials, and how they may translate into city-wide changes, engaging with the whole City as Space of Possibilities.
The book will interest researchers and advanced students in the interdisciplinary fields of urban studies, sustainability science/sustainability research, cultural sciences, urban sociology, and sociology of the arts/cultural sociology; and those interested in the transdisciplinary collaborations between the arts, academia, and civil society.

Queering Jewish Cultural Heritage in Europe
Iridescently Yours

This book moves towards the development of more inclusive practices in the handling, management, and debate of Jewish cultural heritage in Europe. The volume presents dynamic explorations of current Jewish subjects across a range of positionalities. It uses diverse methodologies such as ethnographic and sociological fieldwork, research creation, and artistic response. Deploying "e;queer"e; in relation to Jewish heritage in the double sense of "e;queering"e; as a critical and reparative process and of a "e;queer"e; spectrum of minority positionalities, this volume demonstrates their multifaceted and polydimensional resonances in the contemporary European context. The contributions offer in-depth explorations highlighting a diversity of marginalised Jewish positionalities and initiatives to develop inclusive, polyvalent, and ultimately iridescent approaches to Jewish heritage in Europe. It explores more inclusive conceptualisations and applications of cultural heritage and associated policies, shedding light on how Queer Jewish subjects make heritage as they create and recreate cultural and historical meanings across a wide spectrum of identity, belonging, and artistic engagement. The book will appeal to scholars and students of queer studies, critical heritage studies, and Jewish studies, as well as to researchers in the fields of ethnomusicology, artistic research/research creation, and museum studies. Its insights will be valuable to civil society actors and thought leaders from queer Jewish communities, as well as to heritage professionals who wish to develop more nuanced and inclusive strategies to refine current approaches in their fields.

Art and Sustainability
Connecting Patterns for a Culture of Complexity

What is the cultural dimension of sustainability? This book offers a thought-provoking answer, with a theoretical synthesis on »cultures of sustainability«. Describing how modernity degenerated into a culture of unsustainability, to which the arts are contributing, Sacha Kagan engages us in a fundamental rethinking of our ways of knowing and seeing the world. We must learn not to be afraid of complexity, and to re-awaken a sensibility to patterns that connect. With an overview of ecological art over the past 40 years, and a discussion of art and social change, the book assesses the potential role of art in a much needed transformation process.
