How we deal with land has far-reaching implications for architecture and urban development. The last decade has seen a dramatic rise in the privatization of urban land and in speculation. Many European cities that today find themselves under extreme development pressure have virtually no land left to build on. In view of the acute housing shortage, the issue of who owns the land is therefore more relevant than ever: To what extent are we able to treat the land as a common good and guard it from the excesses of capitalism? After a number of specialist journals have already addressed the land property issue, this book aims to dig deeper by providing a historical overview spanning an arc from Henry George to the present day. Interviews with stakeholders in global models provide insights into the current handling of the issue. The book presents outstanding projects based on either a legal or spatial distribution of land and thus makes a valuable contribution to the current discussion on sustainable land policy.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Unser Umgang mit Grund und Boden beeinflusst Architektur und Stadtentwicklung massgeblich. Im letzten Jahrzehnt haben die Privatisierung von urbanem Boden sowie die Spekulation damit dramatisch zugenommen. Viele europäische Städte, die einem hohen Entwicklungsdruck unterliegen, verfügen selbst über so gut wie keinen baufähigen Bodenvorrat mehr. Angesichts der akuten Wohnungsnot stellt sich somit die Bodenfrage erneut: Inwiefern vermögen wir es, Boden als gemeinschaftliches Gut zu behandeln und ihn den Exzessen des Kapitalismus zu entziehen Nachdem sich bereits zahlreiche Fachmagazine dem Thema angenommen haben, möchte 'Architektur auf gemeinsamem Boden' dieser Frage umfassend auf den Grund gehen, indem es einen historischen Überblick liefert und dabei den Bogen von Henry George bis in die gegenwärtige Zeit spannt. Interviews mit globalen Akteuren geben Aufschluss über den heutigen Umgang mit der Bodenfrage. Das Buch zeigt herausragende Projekte, denen entweder eine rechtliche oder eine räumliche Trennung von Grund und Boden zugrunde liegt, und liefert somit einen wertvollen Beitrag zur aktuellen Diskussion über eine nachhaltige Bodenpolitik.
