Making Massive Small Change: Ideas, Tools, Tactics: Building the Urban Society We Want
Description :
strong Bookbuilders of Boston Winner ? Professional,
Illustrated Category strong The key to fixing our broken
patterns of urban development does not lie in grand plans or
giant projects rather, it lies in the collective wisdom and energy
of people harnessing the power of many small ideas and
actions to make a big difference. We call this making “Massive
Small” change. In an increasingly complex and changing world
where global problems are felt locally, the systems we use to
plan, design, and build our urban neighborhoods are failing.
For three generations, governments the world over have tried
to order and control the evolution of cities through rigid,
topdown action. Yet, master plans lie unfulfilled, housing is in
crisis, the environment is under threat, and the urban poor
have become poorer. The system is not broken: it was built
this way. And governments alone cannot solve these
problems. But there is another way?the Massive Small way?a
concept developed by Kelvin Campbell, the innovative founder
of Urban Initiatives, an internationally recognized urban design
practice based in London, and curator of Smart Urbanism
[Massive Small], one of the largest LinkedIn communities in
the field of online urbanism. em Making Massive Small
Change em , the first truly comprehensive sourcebook to come
out of this work, showcases cities as they really are?deeply
complex, adaptive systems. As such, it offers an alternative to
our current highly mechanistic model of urban development.
With roots in the work of great urban theorists such as Jane
Jacobs, Christopher Alexander, and E. F. Schumacher, em
Making Massive Small Change em integrates this thinking with
Complexity Theory and a scientific understanding of
sustainability and resilience in cities. It sets out the enabling
protocols, conditions, and behaviors that deliver Massive Small
change in our neighborhoods. It describes and illustrates the
ideas, tools, and tactics being used to help engaged citizens,
civic leaders, and urban professionals to work together to build
viable urban society, and it will show how effective system
change can be implemented. Highly illustrated with stunning
graphics and photographs of cityscapes and urban life, this
essential toolkit for the future can be called the next em Whole
Earth Catalog em for twentyfirst century urban planning and
development. em em
