Literature examining Indian housing policy broadly focuses on the shifting role of the state from a provider of housing to a facilitator of housing markets. Using frame analysis method, this article explores the underlying policy frames responsible for this shift and the factors influencing the homeownership bias in Indian housing policy. The analysis moves forward in two steps: First, we present the policy frames analysis method and describe the data sources used for analysis. Second, we identify the policy frames and discuss their linkages to homeownership bias in Indian housing policy. We identify four policy frames over the years: housing as an unproductive activity, housing as an economic activity, housing as a market good and housing as a commodity. We conclude by highlighting that market-based housing policies work in favour of perpetuating homeownership bias, which, in turn, arrests the development of alternatives like rental housing and cooperative housing.
研究印度住房政策的文献广泛关注国家从住房提供者向住房市场促进者的角色转变。本文采用框架分析方法,探讨了导致这一转变的基本政策框架,以及影响印度住房政策中住房所有权偏见的因素。分析分两步进行:首先,我们提出了政策框架分析方法,并描述了用于分析的数据源。其次,我们确定了政策框架,并讨论了它们与印度住房政策中的住房所有权偏见的联系。多年来,我们确定了四个政策框架:住房是一种非生产性活动,住房是一项经济活动,住房作为市场商品,住房作为商品。最后,我们强调,基于市场的住房政策有利于长期存在住房所有权偏见,这反过来又阻碍了租赁住房和合作住房等替代方案的发展。

The objective of this study is to analyse the potentials, obstacles and socio-economic condition of swamp land development for food estate programmes in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. The results for qualitative descriptive and quantitative analysis showed there were approximately 33.4 million hectares of swamp land area, 9.5 million of which have the potential for agricultural land, particularly for rice. The rationale of food estate location are a wide area of land availability, with abundant water resources. The main obstacles of land use of swamp land are: (a) low soil pH (acid); (b) low NPK content in the soil; (c) high Al and Fe solubility (toxic); and (d) tidal influence such that during the wet season the land is flooded and during the dry season the land is dry. This research recommends that swamp land development for food estates requires: water management infrastructure rehabilitation, land management, adaptive and potential commodity selection and farmer institution strengthening and facilitation.
本研究的目的是分析印度尼西亚中加里曼丹沼泽地开发粮食庄园项目的潜力、障碍和社会经济状况。定性、描述性和定量分析的结果显示,大约有3340万公顷沼泽地,其中950万公顷有可能成为农业用地,尤其是水稻用地。食物庄园选址的理由是土地面积大,水资源丰富。沼泽地土地利用的主要障碍是:(a)土壤酸碱度低;(b) 土壤中NPK含量低;(c) 高Al和Fe溶解度(有毒);以及(d)潮汐影响,使得在雨季期间土地被淹没,而在旱季期间土地是干燥的。这项研究建议,开发用于粮食庄园的沼泽地需要:恢复水管理基础设施、土地管理、适应性和潜在的商品选择以及加强和促进农民制度。

This article assesses the impact of climate change on the fishing activities of businesses, households and fishermen in the Northern coastal villages of Vietnam. From the data published by the state agencies and case studies in some fishing villages in the Northern region, this article assumes that the coastal fishing villages has a long history, making important contributions to the economic and social development. In recent years, fishing activities have expanded but are also affected by the consequences of climate change. Aware of this problem, businesses, households and fishermen have many measures to respond, but the effectiveness is still not high. Therefore, the study suggests that the government should pay more attention to improving the ability to predict early, accurately the location and evolution of rain, storm, etc. Exploiters need to be more proactive in equipping rescue equipment on ships and boats when going out to sea.
本文评估了气候变化对越南北部沿海村庄的企业、家庭和渔民渔业活动的影响。本文从国家机构公布的数据和对北方地区部分渔村的个案研究中,认为沿海渔村历史悠久,对经济社会发展做出了重要贡献。近年来,捕鱼活动有所扩大,但也受到气候变化后果的影响。意识到这个问题,企业、家庭和渔民有很多应对措施,但有效性仍然不高。因此,研究建议政府应更加重视提高对降雨、风暴等的早期、准确预测位置和演变的能力。在出海时,利用方应更加主动地为船舶和小艇配备救援设备。

Indonesia is one of the developing countries with a distinct migration pattern because it is still concentrated in certain areas due to uneven development. The literature informs that not only economic factors influence migration but also amenities. The article examines the role of amenities and economic factors on Indonesia’s cities migration. The results reveal that cities in Java have higher amenities and are still the most popular migration destinations, while migrants can consider cities outside Java if they are included in the high amenities category and the provincial capital. Migrants are also interested in cities with abundant amenities, even if the economic compensation is not high. Our results found that amenities, minimum wages, gross regional domestic product, tertiary sector and growth contributed to migration. The study confirms that amenities other than economic factors influence Indonesian city’s migration. We suggest that the city government prioritize the provision of quality amenities and the creation of a better city economy.
印度尼西亚是移民模式独特的发展中国家之一,因为由于发展不均衡,移民仍集中在某些地区。文献表明,影响移民的不仅是经济因素,还有便利设施。本文考察了便利设施和经济因素在印尼城市移民中的作用。结果显示,爪哇岛的城市拥有更高的便利设施,仍然是最受欢迎的移民目的地,而如果移民被列入高便利设施类别和省会,他们可以考虑爪哇岛以外的城市。移民也对设施丰富的城市感兴趣,即使经济补偿不高。我们的研究结果发现,便利设施、最低工资、地区国内生产总值、第三产业和增长对移民有贡献。研究证实,除经济因素外,其他便利设施也会影响印尼城市的移民。我们建议市政府优先提供优质便利设施,创造更好的城市经济。

Our objective in this article is to understand the determinants of sustainable (own source) revenues of cities and empirically estimate it in the context of an econometric model. This article makes an attempt to understand the determinants of own revenues for ULBs in India, taking the case of a prominent state, Karnataka. We empirically examine the determinants of own source revenues, controlling for endogeneity of several variables, using valuable data for cities in Karnataka, a representative Indian state. We find that higher city per capita incomes and effective literacy rates lead to a large tax base for the city economy. Road length has a positive effect on the city’s tax base, presumably as it leads to accessing jobs easily and increased economic activity, which also gives the public more confidence and motivation to pay taxes. Per capita grants lead to higher own source revenues for the city. The policy implications are to educate the workforce in the cities better, and invest in roads, rather than viewing them as expenditure.
我们在本文中的目标是了解城市可持续(自有来源)收入的决定因素,并在计量经济模型的背景下对其进行实证估计。本文以印度著名的卡纳塔克邦为例,试图了解印度城市银行自身收入的决定因素。我们通过经验检验了自身收入来源的决定因素,控制了几个变量的内生性,使用了印度代表性邦卡纳塔克邦城市的宝贵数据。我们发现,较高的城市人均收入和有效识字率为城市经济带来了较大的税基。道路长度对城市的税基有积极影响,大概是因为它能让人们更容易找到工作,增加经济活动,这也给了公众更大的信心和动力去纳税。人均拨款为城市带来了更高的自身来源收入。其政策含义是更好地教育城市劳动力,投资道路,而不是将其视为支出。

Vertical housing has been considered an effective way to provide low-income housing in many megacities. As part of an effort to implement contextual architectural design, vertical housing projects in Surabaya, East Java, Indonesia, incorporated shared kitchens and bathrooms as observed in Indonesian kampong (slum) settlements. However, the residents eventually converted their shared kitchen spaces to other uses and constructed kitchens in their individual units. This research study investigated the nature of and reasons for such transformations through quantitative and qualitative data collection among residents of three vertical housing projects in Surabaya. We found that disputes over upkeep and rules of use, along with perceived invasions of privacy, precipitated the abandonment of shared kitchens. Residents could not retrofit their shared bathrooms for structural reasons, but they renegotiated a payment system (based on flat fees rather than actual usage) that they considered unfair. Interviews revealed significant differences in implementation between the shared facilities in vertical housing and the voluntary shared arrangements in the kampongs. The facility and management modifications that occurred in vertical housing, which applied bottom-up contextual design by considering users’ needs and sensitivities, indicate the complexity of applying a contextual design process into practice.
在许多大城市,垂直住房被认为是提供低收入住房的有效途径。作为实施文景建筑设计的一部分,印度尼西亚东爪哇泗水的垂直住宅项目结合了印度尼西亚甘榜(贫民窟)定居点的共用厨房和浴室。然而,居民最终将他们的共享厨房空间转换为其他用途,并在他们的个人单元中建造了厨房。本研究通过对泗水三个垂直住宅项目的居民进行定量和定性数据收集,调查了这种转变的性质和原因。我们发现,在维护和使用规则方面的争议,以及对隐私的侵犯,促使人们放弃共用厨房。由于结构原因,居民们不能改造他们的公用浴室,但他们重新协商了一个他们认为不公平的支付系统(基于固定费用而不是实际使用)。采访显示,垂直住房的共享设施与甘榜的自愿共享安排在执行方面存在重大差异。考虑到用户的需求和敏感性,垂直住宅的设施和管理修改采用了自下而上的环境设计,这表明了将环境设计过程应用于实践的复杂性。

Meeting the sanitation needs of a growing and urbanizing population in India led the incumbent national government to launch a large-scale sanitation programme, the Swachh Bharat Mission in 2014. Having reduced the deficit in basic rural sanitation in its first phase, the programme is targeting to achieve universal safely managed sanitation in its second phase launched in February 2020. Since the trajectory to achieving safely managed sanitation is inherently path-dependent, the present article utilizes novel survey data from rural India to understand the nature of sanitation systems in transitioning spaces and identify the investments they require to provide safely managed sanitation. It finds that the de facto preference in sanitation systems that households manifest is in direct contrast to the governmental choice of the low-cost twin pit system. The choice of the on-site sanitation system is informed by the household’s economic status and how ‘characteristically’ urban the settlements they reside in are. The article further discusses the implications of these findings for the short-term responsiveness and long-term effectiveness of the massive sanitation investments (USD 19 billion) planned for the next five years in India.
为了满足印度不断增长的城市化人口对卫生设施的需求,现任国家政府于2014年启动了一项大规模卫生项目,即“清洁印度使命”。在第一阶段减少了农村基本卫生设施的不足后,该规划的目标是在2020年2月启动的第二阶段实现普遍安全管理的卫生设施。由于实现安全管理的卫生设施的轨迹本质上依赖于路径,因此本文利用来自印度农村的新调查数据来了解过渡空间中卫生系统的性质,并确定提供安全管理的卫生设施所需的投资。研究发现,家庭对卫生系统的实际偏好与政府对低成本双坑系统的选择直接相反。现场卫生系统的选择取决于家庭的经济状况以及他们所居住的城市定居点的“特征”。本文进一步讨论了这些发现对印度未来五年计划的大规模卫生投资(190亿美元)的短期响应能力和长期有效性的影响。

The Potential of Cool Materials Towards Improving Thermal Comfort Conditions Inside Real-urban Hot-humid Microclimate 凉爽材料在改善真实城市湿热小气候中的热舒适条件方面的潜力
IF 1.3 Q2 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2022-03-01 DOI: 10.1177/09754253221083206

The urban heat island (UHI) phenomenon has become a major concern for city sustainability in the wake of global warming and rapid urbanization. This has resulted in increased heat stress and worsened outdoor thermal comfort in urban microclimates. The study demonstrates that heat stress can be mitigated by reducing air temperature and surface temperature with the integration of cool materials into the urban environment using computational fluid dynamics, under representative climatic conditions. The thermal comfort conditions are examined at pedestrian height and the diverse vertical levels by evaluating two climatic parameters: first, the reduction of ambient air temperature and surface temperature characterizing the mitigation (cooling) intensity, and second, the alteration of airflow velocity. The analysis shows that the proposed intervention can effectively decrease surrounding temperature and promote airflow. Cool materials, when applied simultaneously on both buildings and ground, generate a more pronounced mitigation effect than on only the ground or the buildings as it results in a large reduction of air and surface temperature, that is, of 2°C and 6°C, respectively. For airflow velocity, it is highest for combined cool materials, with maximum effect at the time of highest solar irradiance. The study is expected to inform architects, urban designers and people involved in construction engineering regarding retrofitting mitigation of UHI under representative climatic conditions.
随着全球气候变暖和城市化进程的加快,城市热岛现象已成为影响城市可持续发展的一个重要问题。这导致了城市小气候的热应激增加和室外热舒适恶化。研究表明,在具有代表性的气候条件下,通过计算流体动力学将冷材料融入城市环境,降低空气温度和地表温度,可以减轻热应力。通过评估两个气候参数,考察了行人高度和不同垂直高度的热舒适条件:一是环境空气温度和地表温度的降低,表征了缓解(冷却)强度;二是气流速度的变化。分析表明,该干预措施能有效降低周围温度,促进气流。当冷材料同时应用于建筑物和地面时,比仅应用于地面或建筑物产生更显著的减缓效果,因为它可使空气和地面温度大幅降低,即分别降低2°C和6°C。对于气流速度而言,组合冷材料的气流速度最高,在太阳辐照度最高时效果最大。预计这项研究将为建筑师、城市设计师和参与建筑工程的人员提供有关在代表性气候条件下改造缓解热岛热岛的信息。

The study is expected to inform architects, urban designers and people involved in construction engineering regarding retrofitting mitigation of UHI under representative climatic conditions.","PeriodicalId":44690,"journal":{"name":"Environment and Urbanization ASIA","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46509814","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Towards New Urban Agenda: A Radical Reorientation of Urban Planning Education in India 迈向新城市议程:印度城市规划教育的根本重新定位
IF 1.3 Q2 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2021-09-01 DOI: 10.1177/09754253211040193

An urbanizing country such as India has its own development challenges given the conditions of dystopias and discontent in the urban areas. In addition, three global agendas, namely the New Urban Agenda, Sustainable Development Goals and the Nationally Determined Contributions towards climate change mitigation also demand actions in the cities. The traditional urban planning approach, based on master/development planning, and stemming from it, urban planning education, is highly technocratic and unable to deal with the reality of development challenges. In addition, urban planning education in India suffers from over-regulation and standardization, which leaves educational institutions devoid of innovation. Thus, for urban planning education to be relevant in India there is a need to revise and broaden the scope of the urban planning profession, non-standardize its contents, pay attention to substantive aspects including issues of equity and sustainability, have a future-facing approach towards dealing with climate change and rethink its pedagogic methods. However, for these changes to occur, urban planning educational institutes must take the lead and initiate radical reforms in country’s higher education regulatory system.
考虑到城市地区的反乌托邦和不满情绪,像印度这样的城市化国家也面临着自身的发展挑战。此外,三项全球议程,即《新城市议程》、《可持续发展目标》和《国家对减缓气候变化的自主贡献》也要求在城市采取行动。传统的城市规划方法以总体/发展规划为基础,并由此产生城市规划教育,是高度技术官僚化的,无法应对发展挑战的现实。此外,印度的城市规划教育存在过度监管和标准化的问题,这使得教育机构缺乏创新。因此,为了使城市规划教育在印度具有相关性,有必要修订和扩大城市规划专业的范围,使其内容不标准化,关注包括公平和可持续性问题在内的实质性方面,对应对气候变化采取面向未来的方法,并重新思考其教学方法。然而,要想实现这些变化,城市规划教育机构必须发挥带头作用,对国家的高等教育监管体系进行彻底改革。
