Urban and Regional Development Trajectories in Contemporary Capitalism

By: Flavia Martinelli,Frank Moulaert,Andreas Novy

This book re-evaluates a rich scientific heritage of space- and history-sensitive development theories and produces an integrated methodology for the comparative analysis of urban and regional trajectories within a globalized world. The main argument put forward is that current mainstream analyses of urban and regional development have forgotten this rich heritage and fail to address the connections between different dimensions of development, the role of history and the importance of place and scale relations. The proposed methodology integrates elements from different theories – radical economic geography, regulation approach, cultural political economy, old and new institutionalism – that all share a strong concern with time and space dynamics. They are recombined into an interdisciplinary (meta)theoretical framework, capable of articulating the overall problem of socio-economic development and providing methodological anchors for comparative case-study analysis, while recognizing context specificities. The analytical methodology focuses on key dynamics and relations, such as strategic agency and collective action, institutions and structures, culture and discourse, as well as the tension between path-dependency and path-shaping. The methodology is then applied to eight urban and regional cases, mostly from Western Europe, but also from the United States and China. The case studies confirm the relevance of time- and space-sensitive analysis, not only for understanding development trajectories, but also for policy making. They ultimately highlight that, while post-war institutions were able to address systemic contradictions and foster a relatively inclusive development model, the neoliberal turn has led to reductionist policies that not only have resulted in an increase in social and spatial inequalities, but have also undermined growth and democracy.

Summer of Blood

By: Matteo Bertone,Angelo Marenzana,Gianluca Ingaramo,Flavia Imperi,Armando Rotondi,T.S. Mellony,Paolo Campana,Autori Vari,Beppe Roncari

La Summer of Love è stata, per una generazione, un periodo storico di grande importanza, un inno alla libertà, alla pace, che ha visto il ribaltamento delle regole e un modo di pensare nuovo e anticonformista. In questa raccolta, la Summer of Love diventa Summer of Blood, perché i racconti che la compongono sono ambientati tutti negli anni 60 e, in essi, il sangue la fa da padrone, mescolandosi ai fiori, alle droghe e agli atti di estrema libertà di una generazione che ha fatto epoca. La postfazione di Biancamaria Massaro sulla Family e Charles Manson completa il quadro di questo volume dal sapore dolceamaro e dai tratti vintage.
