Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The regeneration of critical urban areas through the redesign of public space with the intense involvement of local communities seems to be the central focus of placemaking according to some widespread practices in academic and professional circles. Recently, new expertise maintains that placemaking could be an innovative and potentially autonomous field, competing with more traditional disciplines like urban planning, urban design, architecture and others.This book affirms that the question of 'making better places for people' should be understood in a broader sense, as a symptom of the noncontingent limitations of the urban and spatial disciplines. It maintains that research should not be oriented only towards new technical or merely formal solutions but rather towards the profound rethinking of disciplinary paradigms. In the fields of urban planning, urban design and policymaking, the challenge of placemaking provides scholars and practitioners a great opportunity for a muchneeded critical review. Only the substantial reappraisal of longstanding (technical, cultural, institutional and social) premises and perspectives can truly improve placemaking practices.The pressing need for placemaking implies trespassing undue disciplinary boundaries and experimenting a placebased approach that can innovate and integrate planning regulations, strategic spatial visioning and urban development projects. Moreover, the placemaking challenge compels urban experts and policymakers to critically reflect upon the physical and social contexts of their interventions. In this sense, facing placemaking today is a way to renew the civic and social role of urban planning and urban design.
