Описание: Ende des 19. und Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts entwickelten sich die Gro?stadte in Deutschland und Frankreich sehr verschieden. Auf der einen Seite stand das tausendjahrige Paris, nach seinem radikalen Umbau die unbestrittene Kulturhauptstadt der Welt und Vorbild des modernen Stadtebaus, auf der anderen Seite die rasant wachsenden Industriestadte Deutschlands und das gerade erst zur Hauptstadt des deutschen Reiches aufgestiegene, unfertige Berlin. War im 19. Jahrhundert der Blick von Deutschland nach Frankreich noch selbstverstandlich und der in die Gegenrichtung eine seltene Ausnahme, so anderte sich das im 20. Jahrhundert, als die neuen Stromungen in Kunst, Architektur und Stadtebau aus Deutschland auch international wachsende Aufmerksamkeit fanden. Aus vielerlei Perspektiven behandeln die Beitrage ein in einander verwobenes Feld, das vom Bild der Stadt, uber ihre Mythen bis zu ihrer Planung, ihrem permanenten Umbau und ihrer individuellen und kollektiven Nutzung reicht.

France, which has the largest Muslim minority community in Europe, has been in the news in recent years because of perceptions that Muslims have not integrated into French society. The Civilizing Mission in the Metropole explores the roots of these debates through an examination of the history of social welfare programs for Algerian migrants from the end of World War II until Algeria gained independence in 1962.
After its colonization in 1830, Algeria fought a bloody war of decolonization against France, as France desperately fought to maintain control over its most prized imperial possession. In the midst of this violence, some 350,000 Algerians settled in France. This study examines the complex and often-contradictory goals of a welfare network that sought to provide services and monitor Algerian migrants' activities. Lyons particularly highlights family settlement and the central place Algerian women held in French efforts to transform the settled community. Lyons questions myths about Algerian immigration history and exposes numerous paradoxes surrounding the fraught relationship between France and Algeria—many of which echo in French debates about Muslims today.

Whether it's a snowy trek through Bohemia's remote Jizera Mountains or a cruise across the Great Lakes on a cargo ship, the journey itself is the destination in the Road, Rail & Trail volume of TASCHEN's Explorer series with The New York Times.
Follow Virginia Woolf's footsteps as you explore gardens in the English countryside with Francine Prose. Marvel at India's vibrant bird life with Somini Sengupta. Or sit back and watch Siberia's moonlit forests and Soviet-era relics zip by from the comfort of a train with Finn-Olaf Jones. The Times writers are your guides through 25 dream trips, and the wealth of color photographs that accompany their writing capture the beauty and unique spirit of both far-flung and familiar locales.
The Explorer series takes travel beyond the obvious with adventures in exotic places and new perspectives in familiar ones, all based on the distinguished travel journalism from The New York Times. Each journey features a first-person narrative and postcard-perfect photography that capture the unique personality of the destination--as well as practical information to help get you on your way. Edited by Barbara Ireland, whose 36 Hours travel series has been a TASCHEN best seller, the Explorer series is available in four volumes: Beaches, Islands & Coasts; Mountains, Deserts & Plains; Cities & Towns; and Road, Rail & Trail. "You will be blown away by so much beauty. Each trip is richly illustrated, brimming with practical details, and told in the first person." -- Le Monde, Paris

More than four centuries on from its first publication, discover one of the jewels of urban cartography and civic studies. This quality reprint includes the most enchanting color plates from the Civitates orbis terrarum, a magnificent collection of town map engravings, produced between 1572 and 1617.
Featuring plans, bird's-eye views, and maps for all major cities in Europe, plus important urban centers in Asia, Africa, and Latin America, this masterwork in urban mapping gives us a comprehensive view of city life at the turn of the 17th century. It was edited and annotated by theologian and publisher Georg Braun and largely engraved by Franz Hogenberg, but also involved over a hundred different artists and cartographers who contributed not only town views, but additional elements, such as figures in local dress, courtroom scenes, and topographical details, to help convey the situation, commercial power, and political influence of each city.
TASCHEN's reprint contextualizes the plates with selected extracts from Braun's original texts on the history and significance of each urban center as well as detailed commentaries to place each city map in its cartographical and cultural context.

Описание: Pourquoi un ouvrage sur les villes nouvelles ? Les villes nouvelles constituent des experiences specifiques en termes de developpement urbain, au carrefour de la banlieue et du peri-urbain. Regroupant sur un territoire donne un ensemble d’enjeux politiques, structurels et techniques, elles font appel a une diversite de disciplines dans un bouillonnement d’interactions pour repondre a un defi majeur et complexe : creer des villes de toutes pieces et des lieux de vie. Puisque ces enjeux sont toujours d’actualite des deux cotes de la Mediterranee, se pencher sur les echanges entre autorites locales et experts permet d’enrichir les reflexions et les pratiques dans ce domaine. C’est dans ce sens que cet ouvrage collectif met en evidence les resultats du projet New Medina, projet reposant sur la cooperation entre villes et associations europeennes et mediterraneennes.
