How the built environment, understood as spatial capital, governs both everyday life in cities and urban systems more generally.How the built environment, understood as spatial capital, governs both everyday life in cities and urban systems more generally.In an age of social and environmental crises, we need to critically rethink the role of the built environment and how best to put it to work. Measures and Meanings of Spatial Capital presents a new theory of spatial capital, arguing that spatial form is essential for building resilience into highly complex urban systems. Lars Marcus argues that the built environment constitutes a form of capital that enhances other forms of capital in cities (such as social, economic, and ecological capital), if designed with those goals in mind. This represents an important and necessary shift in how we approach urban space in the numerous studies of cities that are conducted in a range of disciplines today, such as urban sociology, urban economics, and urban ecology.In contemporary urban studies, land has oddly lost its position alongside labor and capital as one of the three fundamental production factors in economic theory, but as Marcus shows, misconceptions of land are at the root of social and environmental crises worldwide. By defining the challenges and modeling our use of spatial form to enhance/improve land, and then synthesizing data into a unified theory of spatial capital, Marcus provides a crucial reframing of how we can best plan and design our cities for the global challenges we are facing.

Festeinband. Condition: Wie neu. XII, 232 Seiten. Tadelloses Exemplar. Mint copy. - "This study examines the revival of Sufism in the Arabic and Turkish novel during the second half of the 20th century. A picture is drawn where Sufism forms a main source of literary inspiration and becomes a mode to establish continuity with the past. Sufism is in this context not solely a passively transmitted cultural artifact; it quite the contrary becomes a major instrument to construct identity and meaning to a post-industrial society. In this respect, the act of writing becomes prayer of a sort; storytelling enables the Self to rest from the dreary political realities of authoritarian modernist ideologies. Thus, writing, in contrast to reason-driven, materialist, modernity becomes meaningful and enables the Self to connect with something beyond immanent reality; in one word, writing becomes re-enchantment." - Content: Acknowledgements - Notes on Translation and Transliteration - Introduction - The Return of Storytelling: The Postmodern Quest for Mysticism - "The Disenchantment of the World": Western Critics of Modernity, the Concept of - Multiple Modernities and the Urge towards the Mystical - The Mystical Turn as Process of Self-examination: Sufism in Relation to Modernity - and Cultural Heritage - Current State of Research - Works of Reference: Studies on Arabic and Turkish Postmodern Literature - Publications on Nationalist Historiography and Non-European Modernities - Goknar's and Elmarsafy's Notions of Secular Sufism - Contributions and Significance of this Study in Relation to Previous Research - Rural Mysticism versus Urban Modernity: "An Elegy of the Old World and an - Expression of a New World Being Born" - Transformation of Rural Space under the Banner of Modernity: Urbanization and - Agrarian Reforms in the Arab World and Turkey in the s and s - The Marriage of Sense and Soul: al-Tayyib Salih's "Dumat Wad Hamid" ("The - Doum Tree of Wad Hamid," ) and Urs al-Zayn (The Wedding ofZein, ) - Setting the Stage: "Dumat Wad Hamid" ("The Doum Tree of Wad Hamid," ) - Sufi Folk Saints, Imams, Outlaws and Educated Village Women: Archetypes and - Mythical Figures in Urs al-Zayn - When the Village Fool Became a Dervish: The Mystical Transformation of Zayn - The Wedding as Mystical Celebration of Mahabba and Community - The Future Whispers through the Anatolian Snowstorm: Yasar Kemal's Yer Demir - Gok Bakir (Iron Earth, Copper Sky, ) - Sociopolitical Context and Elements of Realism - The Mystical Opening and the Process of Sanctification of the Figure Ta§ba§ - The Inner Conversion of Ta§ba§: From Sober Skeptic to Contemplating Mystic - The Snowstorm and the Mysterious Disappearance of Tasba - Farewell You Worshippers of the Beloved: 'Abd al-Haklm Qasim's Ayyam al-Insan - al-Sab'a (The Seven Days of Man) - The Village: 'Abd al as an Adolescent and the Sufi Gatherings - Abd al-AzTz in Tanta: Fascination for the Urban and Dissociation from the Past - Abd al-Aziz's Return to the Village: The Transformation of Rural Space - The Comparative Perspective: The Role of a Rural Sufi Saint in Times of Change - Sufism and Commitment: "My Sufism Is that I Care about Human Concerns - and Social Issues" - Iltizam and Toplumcu Gerqekqilik' The Adoption of Jean-Paul Sartre's Concept of - Litterature Engagee in the Postcolonial Arab Context and in the Turkish Republic - The Beggar for Meaning: Naglb Mahfuz's al-Shahhadh (The Beggar) - The Beggar for Meaning - Disenchantment of Revolution - Escapism: Sexual Pleasure and Mystical Ecstasy - Beyond Escapism: Convergence of Sufism and Commitment Ill - Einstein Encounters Mevlana: Oguz Atay's Bir Bilim Adaminin Romani: Mustafa - Inan (The Life ofa Scientist: Mustafa Inan) - The Turkish Bildungsroman - Mustafa Inan: A Modern Scientist on the Mystical Path - The Spiritual Quest Meets Social Commitment: Mustafa Inan's Concept of - Kamil Bir Insan / Insan-i Kamil - Neither Spiritual Dandy nor Cold Scientist: Mustafa Inan as a Counter-Image - to the "Beautiful Soul" - Wine, Women and Sufism: Aziz al-Sayyid Jasim's al-Zahr al-Shaqi (The Suffering - Primrose) - Paradise Lost: Fading Idealism and the Triviality of Day-to-Day Life - Self-Realization between Mysticism and Political Commitment - From Mystic to Militant - The Comparative Perspective: Commitment as Exterior Manifestation of the - Mystical Path - Sufism and Memory: Challenging Dogmatic, Nationalist Historiography and - Using Sufism to Tell another Story - "Writing the Nation": Nationalist Historiography in Algeria, Egypt and Turkey - The Sufi Wayfarer Travels Egyptian Memory: Gamal al-Ghltani's Kitab - al-Tajalliyat (The Book ofRevelations, ) - 'Dichtung und Wahrheit': Autobiography as Intersection between Divine - Revelation and Human Reality - Nasser Spoke with My Father's Voice - Revelations as Imagination of Another Destiny - The Endless Journey towards God - The Sufi Detective and His Lost Beloved: Orhan Pamuk's Kara Kitap - (The Black Book, ) - Mimicry?
