Creative industries in a European Capital of Culture

This article examines the articulation of the benefits associated with staging the European Capital of Culture (ECoC) in Liverpool, England in 2008. It is argued that relevant policy documents, and policy discourses more generally, propose a strong influential role for the operations of the ECoC upon the creative industries. Such a strong relationship, however, is difficult to evidence either at a discursive level or from the attitudes expressed by those working within the creative industries locally. The idea that the ECoC can promote broadly ‘creative’ activity is thus posited as being merely one aspect of the ECoC’s major goal of attempted city rebranding, rather than anything more substantive; nevertheless the articulation of ‘success’ of the ECoC in this regard seems entrenched.     

De la caída de Tenochtitlán al decaimiento del Make Sicko Seedy de Carlos Fuentes: Ciudades en crisis,mundos por nacer

Carlos Fuentes's 1987 carnivalesque novel, Cristóbal nonato, criticizes Mexico's prehispanic past through a satire of Tenochtitlán-Mexico City in the neoliberal, postnational era. This study consequently juxtaposes criticism, theory, and analysis from both imperial Aztec Mexico and nationalist modern Mexico. While the bulk of this 600-page novel confronts readers with a highly negative (although often risible) view of both Mexicos, it ultimately leads to a happy ending with a didactic twist: If Mexicans will stop abandoning Mexico for the North or other green pastures, and instead stay in Mexico despite its many problems, they can turn things around by their altruism and their activist determination.     

Nineteenth-century planned industrial communities and the role of aesthetics in spatial practices: the visual ideologies of Pullman and Port Sunlight

In the 1880s British and American planned industrial communities revealed a distinct shift in spatial practices as two discrete architecture and landscape architectural aesthetics were applied to community design: Beaux Arts, and Arts and Crafts. Two of the most extensive planned industrial communities during this decade received aesthetic attention: Pullman, Illinois near Chicago (1880), established by George Pullman, and Port Sunlight, near Liverpool (1888), established by William Lever. Both Pullman and Lever believed that by applying a distinctive aesthetic they could establish a cohesive visual ideology for social control. Lever and Pullman believed that by creating “beautiful” spaces, this would encourage and/or constrain worker attitudes and behaviors, what Henri Lefebvre calls “means of control” (1991, p 26). In addition, both Pullman and Port Sunlight became central to establishing and maintaining each company's brand identity. This paper explores the visual ideologies these two industrialists used to produce a distinctive sense of community while also revealing the inherent tensions and limitations of those aesthetics. Not only do Pullman and Port Sunlight reflect an important shift in spatial practices during the 1880s, their architects and landscape architects became influential leaders in the visual ideologies of the City Beautiful and Garden City planning movements.     

Changing tides of industrial democracy: Red Clydeside and the UCS work-in as political heritage

ABSTRACT

Drawing on labour history, critical heritage studies and sociological literature on the entrepreneurial city, this article focuses on the cultural legacy of the famous 1971/72 Upper Clyde Shipbuilders (UCS) work-in apropos Glasgow’s historical reputation as ‘Red Clydeside’. In doing so, the article considers the dispute’s continuing importance as a political resource for present-day debates about workers’ rights, Glasgow’s post-industrial identity, the rise of populist demagoguery and the future of Britain’s industry more generally.     

“火烧船厂”与近代吉林城市消防变迁——以宣统三年吉林省城大火为中心

宣统三年(1911)四月,吉林省城吉林市发生了一起特大火灾。引起这场火灾的原因主要有三个,一是城市建筑风格不利防火,二是消防力量相对不足,三是官府扑救不力。火灾结束以后,吉林市进行了以消防为中心的城市重建。在政府统一规划下,拓宽街道,制订临街房屋样式,限制各种易于引火的木制品的使用,还制定了其他一系列加强消防的办法。社会各界也开始创办各类民间救火组织。     

江苏丹阳葛城遗址勘探试掘简报

江苏丹阳葛城吴文化遗址,经勘探试掘,确认其为一座吴国城址.城址内分布有窖穴、房基、水井、水沟,城址外分布有土墩墓.遗址中出土有较丰富的陶器、石器、青铜器等吴文化遗物.通过对出土陶器分析,可将该文化遗存分为三期:早期为西周中晚期,中期为春秋前期,晚期为春秋后期,三者之间连续无缺环.经与江、浙、皖地区同类吴文化遗存对比,可推知丹阳葛城古城是目前所发现的最早、延续使用时间最长、保存状况较为完好的吴国城址.     

基于集群理论的佛山禅城陶瓷产业转移时空演替机理研究

产业转移是一国或地区经济发展过程中的一种必然现象,随着我国珠江三角洲地区经济发展,产业结构升级已成为目前经济发展中重要课题。而产业转移是产业结构调整地域化的载体,是产业结构调整与升级的基本表现形式。普遍的观点认为产业集群使产业产生区域粘性,阻碍产业转移。然而本文从集群发展与升级的角度,认为中国最大的建筑陶瓷产业基地-佛山禅城的陶瓷集群在形成、发展与升级过程中存在着产业的空间转移,并发现佛山禅城陶瓷业转移在陶瓷产业集群发展与升级两个阶段表现出明显不同的特点:前者为"蔓延式扩散"、后者为"跳跃式转移"。并对两个时段的陶瓷产业转移的机理进行剖析,结果表明:市场才是驱动陶瓷产业转移的主要动力,而政府只是起了助推作用。     

开封历代皇宫沿革与北宋东京皇城范围新考

北宋东京皇城的范围说法不一：一些史书持“周回五里”说;部分学认为北宋东京皇城有两重城墙,一为在内的五里宫城,一为在外的九里十三步皇城。综合研究史料和近年来考古发掘的最新成果,北宋东京皇城的范围应为七里余。     

试论大同操场城北魏建筑遗址的性质

2003年发掘的大同操场城北魏一号建筑遗址为一长方形夯土台基,台基东、北、南三面设踏步,其中南面为东西并列的双阶形制。根据遗址在平城中的位置、建筑形制以及出土遗物,再结合考古材料与文献的对比,可以认为遗址位于平城宫殿区,推断为北魏平城的宫殿建筑遗址。
