Viewing Urban Development from the Evolution of the Social Environment

Although place-marketing and image-enhancement are increasingly common elements of Western urban policy, when applied to specific locales, these abstract theories have to negotiate local conditions and contexts. This paper discusses the ways attempts to place-market the city of Hull, England, prompted debates surrounding questions of place, memory and heritage. Despite being Britain's leading fishing port in the 20th century, Hull's place-marketing strategy elided this past in favour of a sanitised vision of a modern, post-industrial city. These debates crystallised around a 1999 planning inquiry over the proposed redevelopment of the erstwhile fishing dock. While the proposals contained some reference to the dock's role as a site of place-memory, this was deemed insufficient by local protest groups and politicians who argued for a more appropriate memorial to Hull's fishing community. Eventually, the redevelopment proposals were accepted, but not before attendant debates exposed both the depth of local sentiments over place-memories and fishing heritage, and also the difficulties of negotiating inclusive and plural heritage landscapes.

成都城市休闲化演变过程及其影响因素

成都城市休闲化有其独特的发展历程.本文通过建立城市休闲化水平测度指标体系,运用熵值法测算了成都城市休闲化水平;从经济与产业发展、交通设施与安全、休闲服务与接待、休闲空间与环境、休闲生活与消费等5个方面解析了1986 ～2014年成都城市休闲化演变过程.结果发现,自1986年以来,成都城市休闲化进程呈现稳中趋升态势,经历了初步发展、缓慢上升、较快上升、快速上升4个阶段.贡献度分析表明,初步发展、缓慢上升、较快上升3个阶段,城市休闲化主要表现为生活与消费的休闲化,快速上升阶段,城市休闲化的主要表现为交通设施与安全.变化影响指数分析说明,休闲生活与消费、休闲空间与环境、交通设施与安全、休闲服务与接待分别是初步发展、缓慢上升、较快上升、快速上升阶段城市休闲化水平提升的主要因素.本文并从经济发展力、设施建设力、休闲需求力等方面对城市休闲化演变过程的影响因素进行了分析.     

明清榆林城市空间形态的演变

明清榆林城市的空间演变可概括为"初城、三拓、两筑、一缩"四个阶段.明代"榆城三拓"的正确解释是以正统所建城池为基础,经余子俊、黄绂、熊绣三次拓展而形成的城市形态,即榆林主城区域.外城(邓璋筑)与逻城(王遴修)皆不属于明、清时期人们认知下的"三拓"解释.通过对比分析城墙周长数据与相关建筑位置,得出熊绣拓城边界已至南河北岸...     

《考工记》营国制度与中原地区古代都城布局规划的演变

<考工记>营国制度的产生,标志着中国古代都城布局规划理论体系的正式形成.以这一理论为标尺,可将中原地区古代都城布局演变划分为四个阶段.分析考察可知,<考工记>营国制度在当时的历史背景下,只是儒家描绘的一幅"理想王都"的美妙蓝图,只有在统一的封建社会盛世,才有可能将这幅蓝图变为现实.     

试析金代中都路城市群的发展演变及其空间分布特征

:本文以金代中都路地区城市群作为研究对象,对区域城市群的发展演变和空间布局进行了深入的探讨分析。本文认为,金代是北京地区城市发展的重要转折时期,随着金代社会经济的进一步发展,中都路城市群不仅在数量上有所增加,同时,金中都地区政治格局的改变、社会经济的进步以及交通格局的改善也使中都路城市群在地域结构上出现新的变化。在空间布局上,区域城市群呈现出以交通道路为骨架,按照河流流域组团分布的格局。     

当代中国城市低保制度的演进及反思

当代中国城市低保制度从1993年起,经历了初创及试点、正式确立及全面实施、应保尽保、规范管理和全面法制化五个阶段。随着该制度的日益完善和操作程序的不断规范,城市低保制度开创了一种既符合我国国情,又与国际接轨的社会救助新模式,对保障城市困难群众的基本生活、维护城市社会稳定、推动经济体制改革都起到了重大促进作用。城市低保工作呈现出保障人数大体稳定、财政投入逐年增加、保障水平不断提高的态势。该制度面临的困难和问题需要结合国际扶贫的新模式和当前我国的低保工作的实践进行完善和创新。     

20世纪前期天津水供给与城市生活的变迁

自来水的出现对近代城市的影响是巨大的,它改变了城市的空间结构,促进了城市市政体系的形成。天津作为一个商埠城市,租界的存在和城市行政的分割,使得水供给逐渐形成两大系统。不同的社会环境和市政制度,使自来水以不同的方式被城市社会接受。在租界,自来水的供给是近代化社区形成的基础,在老城区,自来水的传入更多表现出传统与新生活方式之间的冲突与交融。然而无论如何,从清末到民国时期,伴随着自来水进入人们的生活,健康、卫生等新的观念逐步被接受,近代城市生活方式逐渐形成。     

民众记忆与服装衍化--1949～2000年中国城镇民众服装流变

服装是社会变迁的组成部分.中国城镇服装以社会大文化的发展为依托,伴随生活方式、价值观念以及行为规范的变化而变化.改革开放以来,随着国家政治经济文化的健康发展,服装开始脱离社会政治和革命范式,凸现自身发展固有的逻辑.同时,中国人的审美观念不断更新,在整体上趋于西化,服装的自身功能日趋彰显.但回首过去,中国特有的、在短时间内形成民众服装急剧变革、走向革命化的现象,颇耐人寻味.在人类历史上,恐怕还没有一个民族将服装当作革命的对象、形式和重要内容,这一现象与中华民族的历史、文化、精神密切相连,是值得深入研究和长久反思的.

Employment Deconcentration: A New Perspective on America's Postwar Urban Evolution

In this study we show that during the postwar era the United States experienced a decline in the share of urban employment accounted for by the relatively dense metropolitan areas and a corresponding rise in the share of relatively less dense ones. This trend, which we call employment deconcentration , is distinct from the other well–known regional trend, namely, the postwar movement of jobs and people from the frostbelt to the sunbelt. We also show that deconcentration has been accompanied by a similar trend within metropolitan areas, wherein employment share of the more dense sections of MSAs has declined and that of the less dense sections risen. We provide a general equilibrium model with density–driven congestion costs to suggest an explanation for employment deconcentration.     

铁路与近代郑州城市空间结构变动及功能演变

平汉、陇海铁路相继筑通并在郑州交汇,为郑州城市的成长提供了前所未有的历史机遇及新生动力机制,城市的发展态势、空间结构、外在景观及城市功能均发生显著变化。大量人流、物流的汇聚,使火车站附近区域快速发展,并在火车站与老城区间形成了功能鲜明、以商品贸易为导向的新市街,城市空间大为拓展。郑州城市由老城区向火车站聚集发展,火车站和新市街逐渐成为新的生活中心,改变了以官府衙门和寺庙为重心的传统城市布局,城市空间结构随之变容。基于商业贸易对交通的需要,郑州城市平面与铁路沿线呈辐射状延伸,依托铁路形成新的功能分区,城市功能由此转换,交通功能得以彰显。     

Debunking the Myth of Localized Agglomerations: The Development of a Regionalized Service Economy in South-East England

The central argument of this paper is that localized clusters of economic activity, or 'agglomerations', have been overemphasized in economic geography since the mid-1980s. In particular, such analyses are too manufacturing-biased, and place too much weight on the importance of local supply, market and partnership linkages. We will re-emphasize the service-based nature of growth in the core region of the UK economy, and will explore how a broad band of producer service activity is emerging in the Western Arc, owing largely to common locational logics, including back-office decentralization and the new firm-formation process. Such growth is both stimulated and supported by the high demand levels of the regional economy, but evidence suggests that the linkages of such firms extend well beyond the 'local', to cover at least the 'Greater South-East'. Furthermore, the international element in service growth needs to be recognized, as highlighted by the concentration of US foreign direct investment in the software industry along the M4 corridor. When areas outside the South-East are considered (such as Edinburgh, Tyne and Wear, Cheshire), the evidence appears to support Allen's (1992) notion of a 'regionalized mode of service growth' in the South-East.

从文物消失看文化遗产保护规划审批问题

从多起涉及文化遗产保护的行政审批事例中可以看到,在现行城市文化遗产保护的行政审批中,存在着制度上的漏洞和缺环,给文化遗产保护带来隐患。为此需要进行改革,把文化遗产保护的审批权交给社会,由一人决断变为众人决策,
