Erik Gunnar Asplund Landscapes and Buildings

Erik Gunnar Asplund Landscapes and Buildings

Taking an interdisciplinary approach weaving together art philosophy history and literature this book investigates the landscapes and buildings of Swedish architect Erik Gunnar Asplund. Through critical essays and beautiful illustrations focusing on four projects the Woodland Cemetery the Stockholm Public Library the Stockholm Exhibition and Asplund’s own house at Stennäs it addresses the topic of buildings accompanied by landscapes. It proposes that themes related to landscape are central to Asplund’s distinctive work with these particular sites forming a collection that documents an evolution in his design thinking from 1915 to 1940. The architect himself wrote comparatively little about his design intentions. However through close reading and analysis of the selected projects as landscapes with architecture author Malcolm Woollen argues that reflections of the history of Swedish landscape architecture and the intellectual climate in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries are evident in his work and help to explain the architect’s intentions. This book is a must-have for academics advanced students and researchers in landscape architecture and design who are interested in Nordic Classicism and the works of Erik Gunnar Asplund. | Erik Gunnar Asplund Landscapes and Buildings

Routledge Handbook of Energy Transitions

Routledge Handbook of Energy Transitions

The Routledge Handbook of Energy Transitions draws upon a unique and multidisciplinary network of experts from around the world to explore the expanding field of energy transitions. This Handbook recognizes that considerable changes are underway or are being developed for the modes in which energy is sourced delivered and utilized. Employing a sociotechnical approach that accounts for economics and engineering as well as more cross-cutting factors including innovation policy and planning and management the volume considers contemporary ideas and practices that characterize the field. The book explores pressing issues including choices about infrastructure the role of food systems and materials sustainability and energy democracy. Disruption is a core theme throughout with the authors examining topics such as digitalization extreme weather and COVID-19 along with regional similarities and differences. Overall the Routledge Handbook of Energy Transitions advances the field of energy transitions by connecting ideas taking stock of empirical insights and challenging how we think about the theory and practice of energy systems change. This innovative volume functions as an authoritative roadmap with both regional and global relevance. It will be an essential resource for students policymakers researchers and practitioners researching and working in the fields of energy transitions planning environmental management and policy sustainable business engineering science and technology studies political science geography design anthropology and environmental justice. “With the exception of Chapter 26 no part of this book may be reprinted or reproduced or utilised in any form or by any electronic mechanical or other means now known or hereafter invented including photocopying and recording or in any information storage or retrieval system without permission in writing from the publishers. ” Chapter 26 of this book is freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www. taylorfrancis. com under a Creative Commons [Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND)] 4. 0 license.

Energy Transitions and Social Psychology A Sociotechnical Perspective

Energy Transitions and Social Psychology A Sociotechnical Perspective

This book explains how social psychological concepts can be closely integrated with sociotechnical perspectives of energy transitions. It shows the value of actor-centred analysis that acknowledges the role of individual-level processes within their wider contexts of energy supply and use. In this way the book connects social psychological and sociological frames of analysis preserving the value of both to provide multi-level analytically extended accounts of energy transitions processes. Sociotechnical thinking is about the interactions of people and technology including the rules regulations and institutions involved. Such perspectives help to identify the many forms of path dependency that can make change difficult. Human behaviour plays a strong role in maintaining these path dependencies but it can also introduce change. This book advocates a deliberately interdisciplinary research agenda that recognises the value of social psychological perspectives when seeking to create new pathways for energy supply and use. At the same time it also demonstrates the value of sociotechnical perspectives for energy-related social psychology. Energy Transitions and Social Psychology will be of great interest to students and scholars of energy transitions environmental and energy psychology sustainable development and innovation studies as well as students and scholars of environment and energy more generally. | Energy Transitions and Social Psychology A Sociotechnical Perspective

Understanding Transitions in the Early Years Supporting Change through Attachment and Resilience

Understanding Transitions in the Early Years Supporting Change through Attachment and Resilience

There are many transitions that children experience before they are five including the first major transition from home to an early years setting. Successive changes can have a serious impact on young children and stress separation and insecure attachments can affect not only a child’s emotional health but also cognitive and intellectual development. Featuring new material on provision for two year olds school readiness and families and transitions this thought-provoking text explains why transitions matter and provides practical guidance on how to support young children’s developing emotional resilience and equip them to embrace change in the future. Aimed at practitioners and students this fully-updated second edition: draws together evidence from neuroscience attachment theory child development and childcare practices; provides a context for practitioners to empathise with children and families as they relate to their own understanding of the impact of change and transition; looks at ways to reduce the number of transitions including the key person approach and; offers guidance and practical strategies for practitioners managers and head teachers for supporting children through transitions. Including case studies examples of good practice and questions for reflection Understanding Transitions in the Early Years emphasises the little things that practitioners can do for the individual children in their care helping them to feel secure and confident when dealing with change. | Understanding Transitions in the Early Years Supporting Change through Attachment and Resilience

Strategic Management and Sustainability Transitions Theory and Practice

Strategic Management and Sustainability Transitions Theory and Practice

The subject of sustainability transitions has in the past decade or so become an established research field for academics policy makers and practitioners alike. Conceptual and theoretical developments in the filed have gradually advanced from the perspectives of socio-technical systems and business models. Scholars contend that it is the interactions of the networks of actors technologies and institutions that drive transition processes toward sustainability. In this volume we further advance this line of inquiry with a special reference to strategic management of sustainability transitions in both theory and practice. In theoretical development we have selected three chapters to encompass the themes of (1) the interactions between ecological systems and human systems; (2) a critique on the continuous expansion of large multinational companies and their strategic control of key resource inputs through the lenses of circular economy and natural resource-based view; and (3) a multi-stakeholder ecosystems framework for the management of sustainability transitions with structural alignment of focal value propositions. The United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are critically addressed and empirically examined. It will become an essential reader and a reference book for researchers and postgraduate students interested in strategic management international business innovation studies consumer behavior and public administration. | Strategic Management and Sustainability Transitions Theory and Practice

Network Governance and Energy Transitions in European Cities

Network Governance and Energy Transitions in European Cities

This book investigates and evaluates the opportunities and limitations of network governance in building local capacity for energy infrastructure governance. Presenting a comparative analysis of three city cases from across Europe- Birmingham Frankfurt and Budapest- this book demonstrates how local factors shape the prospect of network governance to support low-carbon energy transitions. It maps out existing governance networks highlighting the actors involved and their interactions with one another and also discusses the role and embeddedness of networks in the urban governance of low-carbon energy. Drawing on case study evidence Nochta develops a comparative analysis which discusses the intricate connections between network characteristics context and impact. It highlights that organisational fragmentation; the complexity of the low-carbon energy problem and historical developments all influence network characteristics in terms of degree of integration and vertical (hierarchical) power relationships among network actors. Overall the book concludes that understanding such links between context and networks is crucial when designing and implementing new governance models aimed at facilitating and governing low-carbon urban development. Low-Carbon Energy Transitions in European Cities will be of great interest to scholars of energy policy urban governance and sustainability transitions. | Network Governance and Energy Transitions in European Cities

Dilemmas of Energy Transitions in the Global South Balancing Urgency and Justice

Dilemmas of Energy Transitions in the Global South Balancing Urgency and Justice

This book explores how in the wake of the Anthropocene the growing call for urgent decarbonisation and accelerated energy transitions might have unintended consequences for energy poverty justice and democracy especially in the global South. Dilemmas of Energy Transitions in the Global South brings together theoretical and empirical contributions focused on rethinking energy transitions conceptually from and for the global South and highlights issues of justice and inclusivity. It argues that while urgency is critical for energy transitions in a climate-changed world we must be wary of conflating goals and processes and enquire what urgency means for due process. Drawing from a range of authors with expertise spanning environmental justice design theory ethics of technology conflict and gender it examines case studies from countries including Bolivia Sri Lanka India The Gambia and Lebanon in order to expand our understanding of what energy transitions are and how just energy transitions can be done in different parts of the world. Overall driven by a postcolonial and decolonial sensibility this book brings to the fore new concepts and ideas to help balance the demands of justice and urgency to flag relevant but often overlooked issues and to provide new pathways forward. This volume will be of great interest to students and scholars of energy transitions environmental justice climate change and developing countries.
