Uses of history and urban changes
Des mythes de fondation antiques au storytelling contemporain, d’innombrables récits accompagnent le processus d’urbanisation planétaire. Le changement dans les villes n’est pas en effet un processus linéaire, et les sociétés urbaines mettent abondamment en récit ses péripéties. À ce phénomène assez bien connu, l’appel à communication qui suit ajoute l’hypothèse que de tels récits ont joué un rôle important dans l’accompagnement des mutations urbaines et qu’ils entretiennent des relations complexes et dialectiques avec les projets, plans d’aménagement, opérations de reconstruction, rénovation, politiques ou mobilisations urbaines en général c’est-à- dire toutes modalités de transformation intentionnelle ou subie des villes. L’objectif du colloque sera donc d’éclairer assez précisément le rapport entre ces narrations et les enjeux propres au changement urbain et à l’urbanisme.

Call for papers - Urban studies
The “Landscapes” edition of dearq academic journal invites participants to reflect on what has globally been, principally since the beginning of the twentieth century, the evolution of the concept of landscape; the relevant methods of analysis; the methods of representation, of evaluation, and of teaching. This takes into consideration how the concept is a practical project tool that can be used for land-use planning, what landscape’s level of influence has been on the public policy decision-making process, what instruments and regulations have been used, and also how “landscape” and “territory” coexist.

Conference, symposium - Representation
Espaço e ilusão. Teatros, arquitetura e património na Península Ibérica
O Simpósio internacional de arquitetura "Espaço e Ilusão. Teatros, arquitetura e património na Península Ibérica" pretende abrir um diálogo entre estudiosos e técnicos protagonistas de ambos os países, responsáveis pelo estudo desta temática e pelo projecto e execução de muitas das intervenções recentes em espaços teatrais. O impacto destas realizações na deslocação dos novos equipamentos dos centros (históricos) para novas centralidades comerciais, a recuperação de teatros e auditórios como factores de redefinição do tecido urbano, a importância de novas linguagens e de formas de interacção do público com os espaços, a influência das novas tecnologias nas soluções arquitetónicas e cenográficas, são alguns dos temas a abordar no Simpósio.

Paris
Sociétés journal devotes its next issue to the subject of “the ruin”. This issue aims to revisit and extend the notion of ruin considering its spatial, social, architectural, and urban imaginary. A Ruin is a representation and a pictorial resource of the landscape, is a metaphysical way of thought, a purpose and a primitive view. In this sense, memory, architecture and symbol, life and death, decay and rebirth, time and duration, rust and bones, the eternal communication, previous utopia and inner experience, the decomposition and recomposition, ecosophy and economics of conflict, obsolescence and "affordance", are some of the subjects that derive from ruin as status quo: an 'imaginal' foundation of the romanticism and a sensitivity of our contemporaneous world.
