The RPA, following the Plan of Chicago (1909), argued for what I call ‘metropolitan regionalism’, a rail-based region tightly organized around a dense core. By contrast, the RPAA’s ‘decentrist regionalism’ envisioned a radical redistribution of population and production that would fully utilize the automobile and create a network of ‘New Towns’ in still-verdant greenbelts. I argue that regional planning in the United States since the 1920s has been dominated by the debate between these two regionalisms, and, since the disbanding of the RPAA and its successor organizations, this ‘regional conversation’ for New York has taken place within the RPA as especially their Third (1996) and Fourth (2017) Regional Plans have attempted to reconcile the two visions.","PeriodicalId":46569,"journal":{"name":"Planning Perspectives","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46887769","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the author, the World Fair became an opportunity to imagine the city and an ideal nation; it became a script for urban development in the modernizing country. The consolidation of Brazilian architecture and engineering was part of this same process. Indeed, the fair celebrated the neo-colonial as the true architecture of Brazil, even when many original colonial baroque structures had been recently demolished. One of the book’s most important contributions is to connect urban planning to racial ideology in thinking on the production of spatial difference and violence against the racialized other and poor. The epilogue makes that case by linking this history with the recent violence against poor racialized communities and the demolition of Vila Autodromo, the favela bulldozed to build the Olympic Village in preparation for the 2016 Summer Olympics, one of the many mega-events that Rio hosted recently. This important, carefully researched book takes on the challenge of thinking about the production of difference, exclusion, and oblivion as part of modernity. And it does it by bringing back to life those condemned by urban reforms and the imagined Brazilian community.","PeriodicalId":46569,"journal":{"name":"Planning Perspectives","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46532532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Certainly, this may be a harsh suggestion when there is no rich source at hand to support the description of a general structured landscape. Notwithstanding the lack of overall structural analysis of Dongchuan’s urban landscape, the book highlights important aspects of Dongchuan’s historical experience. These include the landscape construction strategies of the Qing state’s civil elites and the wisdom of the indigenous inhabitants and immigrants who dealt with the new living environment. The latter constructed landscape by employing geographical resources to maintain and express the local groups’ identity, status, and adherence to local traditions. In a nutshell, the reshaping of the urban landscape presented in this book is not simply a rough transformation of the original landscape by the elite groups representing the imperial power, but a field of dependence, negotiations, and compromise among different groups, which makes up a part of the continuous civilizing process in the context of local natural geographical features. The author shows that during this process, also apparently innocent sites, such as buildings, roadways, fields, mountains, waters, and scenic spots, interacted with the imagination, memories, and daily lives of those who lived between them, shaping different cultural traditions and identities and thus a unique and multi-layered border landscape.","PeriodicalId":46569,"journal":{"name":"Planning Perspectives","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48951461","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Kohn’s office in the Manhattan 1913 Goupil Building on 56–58 West 45th Street in New York City. At the urging of Charles H. Whitaker, then editor of the Journal of the American Institute of Architects, the informal group came together to promote social values with territorial decentralization and balance. They chose to drop the additional items of ‘housing’ and ‘garden cities’ from the association title to emphasize the territorial scope and ambition of Benton MacKaye’s Appalachian Trail proposal, which he had been developing since 1921. Over the next ten years, RPAA projects included a range of scales, from geographic projects such as MacKaye’s Appalachian Trail, to the residential designs for Radburn, New Jersey and Sunnyside Gardens in Queens, New York. After its demise in 1933, some members went on to work on New Deal projects and legislation, such as the Tennessee Valley Authority (which celebrates its ninetieth anniversary this year) and Catherine Bauer’s authorship of the Housing Act of 1937. This special issue of Planning Perspectives is an opportunity to consider and discuss the RPAA legacy 100 years later. Not all RPAAmembers were present at the April 18 meeting, so Lewis Mumford instead marked the association’s origins at a meeting the following month –May 19 – at the Hudson Guild Farm in New Jersey. Mumford recalled that a group of folk square dancers were at the farm that day and admonished the RPAA city newcomers for trying to participate in the dance without knowing its rules and manners. Mumford enjoyed the scolding, and the association would then try to incorporate square dancing into its future meetings as a way to connect with U.S. folk culture. Mumford was drawn to imagined folk rurality at the outer edge of the metropolis, where the group hoped to find refuge from the teeming immigrant New York of the 1920s. It was an act of ventriloquy, in the spirit of the regionalist local colour literature of the period, where ‘a modern urban outsider... projects onto the native a pristine, authentic space immune to historical changes shaping their own lives;’ the projected indigenous connection to region itself a product for those metropolitan planners and administrators who would receive the new planning perspective. In her book on new towns of the period, Rosemary Wakeman describes this as ‘practicing utopia’, which also applies to the work of the RPAA. The affinities between the U.S. planning regionalists and the literary regionalists are surely testament to their shared futurist imaginary interests imbued with a nineteenth century folk nostalgia.","PeriodicalId":46569,"journal":{"name":"Planning Perspectives","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47975454","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this regard members of the RPAA, such as Mumford, Stein, Wright and MacKay, were initially strongly influenced by Geddes's idea of a geomorphology of human spatial systems, which also influenced the New Deal Era. While the utopianism of the RPAA's thinking diminished over time, its practical idealism persisted. To paraphrase Friedmann and Weaver, in the fluctuations between ‘functionality' and ‘territorial integration' that occurred in regional planning, the RPAA's concern for humankind and nature has persisted into today's Anthropocene Era. In short, while the RPAA's legacy’s subsequent influence over regional planning has varied, its relevance to functional integration has been longer lasting than its adherence to territorial integration.","PeriodicalId":46569,"journal":{"name":"Planning Perspectives","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45867854","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
