A propos de cet article

Oversized cloth hardcover, xvi + 319 pages, copiously illustrated, NOT ex-library. Weight over 1.3 kg. Book is clean and bright throughout, with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. In a bright, untorn dust jacket. -- The City Creative explores the grassroots evolution of "creative placemaking", detailing how community activists and artists - rather than just urban planners - have transformed struggling American cities since the post-war era. The work uses a multidisciplinary lens to examine selected case studies, advocating for a model of urban renewal that is community-led and equitable. The book highlights how residents in legacy cities have used small-scale interventions and cultural projects to spark growth and vitality. It critiques traditional, market-driven placemaking that often leads to displacement, instead proposing a holistic and redistributive vision that focuses on both tangible community benefits and intangible social identity. By documenting these efforts, the authors illustrate how placemaking can be reoriented to meet modern demands for racial justice and inclusive urban life. While focused on America, the book offers a persuasive history of creative placemaking from the postwar period through the aftermath of the Great Recession, providing participatory design insights that can be applied to wider urban contexts. -- Michael H. Carriere is an associate professor at the Milwaukee School of Engineering, where he teaches American history, public policy, and urban design. David Schalliol is an associate professor of sociology at St. Olaf College and a renowned photographer whose work has appeared in The New York Times and at the Chicago Architecture Biennial.…
