Toward a sociology of global comparative placemaking

I call for a globally informed sociology of comparative placemaking that integrates historical and contemporary processes and includes the ephemeral, institutional, and personal. By placemaking, I am referring to the explicit or tacit cooperation among people to create, maintain, and give meaning to places in space through bodily occupation given differential resources and constraints. I review select place, space, and community-based literature about urban, Black, migrant, LGBTQ, and international populations to think about how we can build upon and integrate multiple theoretical, methodological, and epistemological insights to form an explicit placemaking research agenda. A US focus on neighborhoods contrasts with a comparative examination of global urban networks, social polarization, and transformation of the built environment in the interdisciplinary field of global urban studies (Ren, 2018). I argue for a placemaking research agenda that bridges insight from US Urban Sociology with Global Urban Studies to consider how various structures and actors constrain and facilitate place projects. With a globally reaching and comparatively informed sociology of placemaking, we can illuminate our multi-structured story of place and agency in context. We can answer questions about how and why we co-create and are simultaneously disciplined by the process of creation.     

城市综合体建设面临的一系列问题探讨--以南通市为例

随着房地产调控和城市化进程的加快，商业地产越来越受到开发商的青睐。城市综合体作为商业地产的典型代表以其多结构多层级的功能组合迅速提升区域价值而拥有了“城中之城”的美誉，在东部地区二三线城市大量涌现。但城市综合体带动城市发展的同时，也引发了一系列风险亟待关注。     

试论延吉城市旅游形象设计

在延吉城市旅游形象的诸要素中,民俗要素最为重要,因此,在对延吉城市旅游形象进行定位时,无论是从延吉城市形象的硬件上(如交通、餐饮),还是在城市旅游形象的软件上(如市民素质、民俗民风等方面),都要突出民俗特色,同时要用多种形式大力宣传。     

三国时期西部农业开发述论

三国时期 ,曹魏控制西北 ,蜀汉占据西南 ,两国主要在西部地区争战 ,粮草供给成为决定胜负的关键因素 ,为此双方都采取了恢复和发展粮食生产的措施。曹魏在西部一些适宜农业的战略要地大兴屯田 ,开发关陇、稳定河西 ,每年收获大量谷物供给军粮 ,以守为攻 ,迎战蜀军 ;蜀汉占据西南之后 ,诸葛亮注意处理好民族关系 ,发挥当地的农业资源优势 ,劝农积谷。为了解决北伐运粮的困难 ,还在汉中及渭水南岸一些地区设置少量屯田。不同的农业开发措施与双方的治乱胜败有很大关系。     

湖南省与周边区域经济发展比较及对策研究

近年来 ,国家实施“西部大开发”战略对湖南省的地缘经济关系的影响十分显著 :与湖南经济关系互补型的地区减少了 ,而竞争型的地区有所增多。因此 ,湖南省必须抓住改革开放机遇 ,充分认识自身优势和弱点 ,把握在全国经济格局中的角色定位 ,加大对外开放的力度 ,多方招商引资 ,使本地区经济在全国经济竞争中迅速发展     

Spatial variation in soil inorganic nitrogen across an arid urban ecosystem

We explored variations in inorganic soil nitrogen (N) concentrations across metropolitan Phoenix, Arizona, and the surrounding desert using a probability-based synoptic survey. Data were examined using spatial statistics on the entire region, as well as for the desert and urban sites separately. Concentrations of both NO₃-N and NH₄-N were markedly higher and more heterogeneous amongst urban compared to desert soils. Regional variation in soil NO₃-N concentration was best explained by latitude, land use history, population density, along with percent cover of impervious surfaces and lawn, whereas soil NH₄-N concentrations were related to only latitude and population density. Within the urban area, patterns in both soil NO₃-N and NH₄-N were best predicted by elevation, population density and type of irrigation in the surrounding neighborhood. Spatial autocorrelation of soil NO₃-N concentrations explained 49% of variation among desert sites but was absent between urban sites. We suggest that inorganic soil N concentrations are controlled by a number of ‘local’ or ‘neighborhood’ human-related drivers in the city, rather than factors related to an urban-rural gradient.     

城市森林效益与可持续性研究展望

正确认识城市森林的功能和效益 ,探索不同管理措施对城市森林效益的影响 ,对实现城市森林的可持续性具有十分重要的意义。本文综述了城市森林对生态环境和生态过程产生的影响及生态和社会效益 ;分析了城市森林可持续性的内涵及特征 ;对城市森林可持续性模式及评价标准、城市森林生态学等领域的研究成果和发展方向进行了归纳分析。在分析目前我国城市生态环境面临的问题的基础上 ,进一步提出城市森林是构建城市绿色空间的主体。建设可持续城市森林是实现城市经济和环境可持续发展的重要途径。     

善治理论与中国地方治理

地方治理意味着地方政府从中央一体化的垂直结构下抽身,确立自身的独立地位与利益;同时,它也表征着民间社会力量的成长并逐步参与地方公共事务,成为地方治理中重要的参与性力量。在此意义上,善治理论提供了具有借鉴意义的理论框架和分析范式。但是,处于转型期的中国社会,在用善治理论观照中国地方治理时,其前提和基础条件的具备与否是受到质疑的,从而,这一分析框架的适用性也是有限的。     

城市房地产开发项目土地费用估算原理

我国城市房地产开发项目土地费用的政策灵活性和地方特殊性很强 ,它的正确估算的前提是估算原理科学。文章以马克思的土地经济学说为指导 ,借鉴发达国家的土地管理经验 ,从我国城市房地产业发展的需要出发 ,对我国城市房地产开发项目的土地使用费、征地拆迁费、场地开发费、土地税收和管理费的估算原理进行了全面深入的探讨     

汪辟疆及其近代诗系的建构

汪辟疆认为近代诗的成就不仅在清代最高,而且在许多方面超过宋代,他的观点解构了陈衍的理论,重新建构了近代诗的体系。他对近代诗发展的认识,以及关于近代诗派与地域的划分等,受到了当时从西方传进的进化论的影响,也受到了清代传统朴学暨扬州学派的影响,还受到当时新的文学史观念的影响。
