  • Music and Globalization

    Critical Encounters

    Rituels territorialés d'inclusion des différences

    de Bob W. White, Fiorenza Gamba, Sandro Cattacin ...
    Notre thèse principale est que les rituels peuvent favoriser l’inclusion si l’on met l’accent sur leur communalité, sur leur aspect transformateur et sur leur convivialité, qui est nécessaire pour que ces derniers se reproduisent. Pour démontrer cette thèse, nous avons analysé et comparé huit rituels urbains (à Genève, Montréal et Turin). Le livre s’achève sur des recommandations aux responsables ... Leer más

    Public Space in a Postcivil Society

    Edición de Michiel Dehaene, Lieven De Cauter ...

The term has had an impact on architectural and urban theory since it was coined by Foucault in the late 1960s but it has remained a source of confusion and debate since. ... Leer más
