  • - Theories and practices of territorialisation
     
    672,95 kr.

    Launching the concept of `territorialisation¿, this book explores how the natural environment and culture are constitutive of each other. The concept of territorialisation allows us to study the characterisation of the natural assets of a place; the means by which the natural environment and culture interact; and how communities assign meaning to local assets, add functions and ascribe rules of how to use space. Territorialisation helps frame the concept of sustainable regional development and to grasp the role and meaning of culture in sustainable regional development because it highlights the time-space dimension in the use and consumption of resources.

  • - Imagining Europolis
     
    2.018,95 kr.

    This book reveals in a comparative perspective the unique profile of European cities as generators of sustainable development, and the special contribution of culture to this process. It addresses both a deficit of attention to the role of small and medium-sized cities in European sustainable development, and an underestimation of the role of culture, arts and creativity for integrated development of the city as a prerequisite for urban sustainability. On the basis of a broad collection of case studies and good practices throughout Europe, representing a variety of regionally specific cultural models of sustainable development, the book investigates how participative culture, community arts, and more generally, creativity of civic imagination contribute to the goal of a sustainable future for small and medium-sized cities.

    This book explores the relationships between heritage and sustainability in terms of both theory and practice. It examines the relationships between people and communities in the places where they live, and thus exemplifies the diverse ways in which heritage is used to forge identities and support and create memory, individually and collectively. The book encourages a view of heritage as a people-centred process and focuses on the aspects of cultural sustainability that help to support human well-being through socially- and culturally-sensitive policy and practice.
