contact details by
Stéphane Füzesséry, associate professor of history, permanent researcher at OCS and architect (ABC Architects Building for Capacity)
January
Objectives
The aim of this theme week is to contribute to a better understanding of the territories we live in today: gentrified centers, large housing estates, sub/peri-urban housing estates, the countryside...
What are the economic, social and cultural (i.e., representational) mechanisms behind the distribution of individuals in these different types of space? What urban forms correspond to these ways of living? How are they formed? What social, economic and environmental difficulties do these areas face? What are their potential and prospects for development? What concepts (and tools) are needed to understand (and intervene in) these areas?
Content
The aim of this theme week is to contribute to a better understanding of the areas we live in today: gentrified centers, large housing estates, sub/peri-urban housing estates, the countryside...
In order to sketch out answers to these questions, the week will cross the points of view of practitioners (architects-urban planners) and researchers from different urban disciplines (historians, sociologists, geographers). After an introduction that situates these different types of urban space within the overall territorial reconfigurations produced by contemporary urbanization, specific insights will be shed on four major categories of territory: gentrified inner-city areas, which are now being reclaimed by a significant proportion of the middle and upper classes; large-scale social housing estates, which account for over six million multi-unit dwellings built in France between 1955 and 1975, and which have been the focus of proactive public policies for several decades; suburban and peri-urban areas, where, according to the latest INSEE census, nearly sixteen million French people live in dispersed housing; and finally, the countryside, where an ever-smaller proportion of the population lives, but whose spatial influence remains strong.
Target audience
Managers and employees of architectural, landscape or urban planning firms, technical service managers and technicians of local authorities, employees of public planning establishments, urban and territorial engineering specialists, sustainable development officers and project management employees.
Prerequisites
None required.
