Abstract
Abstract:The "right to the city," as first announced by Henri Lefebvre, is a direct challenge to the current allocation, use and governance of urban spaces. This essay seeks to demonstrate that in addition to expanding our conventional conception of rights, Lefebvre also proposes a new understanding of citizenship. This concept of citizenship simultaneously undermines the Westphalian system's cramped view of citizenship as legal membership in a particular nation state—emphasizing, instead, the vital link between citizenship and inhabitance—and promotes a more robust model in which citizens manage their own urban spaces. While expressing support for Lefebvre's basic goals, the essay critically examines proposals to extend urban citizens' self-management of their city to a right to participate in any decision—even those of multinational corporations and other nation states––whose policies may impact the city.
期刊介绍：
The research on discrete event dynamic systems (DEDSs) is multi-disciplinary in nature and its development has been dynamic. Examples of DEDSs include manufacturing plants, communication networks, computer systems, management information databases, logistics systems, command-control-communication systems, robotics, and other man-made operational systems. The state processes of such systems cannot be described by differential equations in general. The aim of this journal, Discrete Event Dynamic Systems: Theory and Applications, is to publish high-quality, peer-reviewed papers on the modeling and control of, and all other aspects related to, DEDSs. In particular, the journal publishes papers dealing with general theories and methodologies of DEDSs and their applications to any particular subject, including hybrid systems, as well as papers discussing practical problems from which some generally applicable DEDS theories or methodologies can be formulated; The scope of this journal is defined by its emphasis on discrete events and the dynamic nature of the systems and on their modeling, control and optimization.
