ABSTRACT A common challenge shared across cities of the Global South is the seemingly impossible task of drawing a consensus on the right interventions and regulatory framework for street hawkers. This impediment, for many countries, originates from not only the pervasive nature of how this sector is characterized, but also the fluidity associated with their perceptions among urban planners and policy makers. This study highlights that while urban planners and state authorities perceive street hawking as a nuisance and try to forcefully evict them from spaces they occupy, some enterprises have modified traditional street hawking to develop what we term “corporate street hawking” in Accra, Ghana. This article presents findings drawing upon semistructured interviews with 47 street hawkers in Accra.

ABSTRACT Bringing together research on human impacts on marine environments, cultural representation, and geographic information systems (GIS), we explore new approaches to digitally representing the anthropogenic ocean. Marine environments present vexing subjects to capture digitally. Complex physical and biological oceanography, invisible boundaries, ambiguous legal controls, conflicts between multiple stakeholders over subsistence and commercial marine resources, and cultural variations in core ocean epistemologies complicate our ability to model historical and contemporary human interactions with the marine environment. Academic focus on the concept of the Anthropocene within geography, together with critical GIS studies, open new possibilities to transcend division between natural and social sciences. We propose an object-oriented, multiscalar framework for a database of anthropogenic ocean layers that represent human-ocean interactions. We outline strategies for digitally representing human experiences of maritime space and introduce a prototype GIS data structure for its delivery.

ABSTRACT The three themes that dominated Western nature-society thought from ancient times to the end of the eighteenth century—a designed earth, environmental influences, and human impact—were joined subsequently by a fourth. It has gone by many labels, of which possibilism has been the most often used, but is best named by the phrase coined by William Freudenburg and his colleagues, conjoint constitution. Asserting that the role played by the environment in human life depends jointly on its physical qualities and the characteristics of the societies with which they interact, it particularly challenges the subordination of the latter to the former implied in the themes of both design and influence. Conjoint constitution and human impact are arguably the themes most congruent with the assumptions and the realities of modernity.

In Motor City Green, author Joseph S. Cialdella takes readers on a fascinating tour through time and space of the numerous and diverse attempts to reconcile interests in nature and the pressures of development in the iconic American industrial, and now postindustrial, city of Detroit, Michigan. With a historian’s attention to archival sources and an interdisciplinary approach nurtured in his American studies doctoral research, Cialdella hones in on the dynamic political ecology apparent in each of the major phases of Detroit’s economic and political development. This is a rewarding read for those undergraduate and graduate students, and scholars interested in Detroit’s history, community leadership, revitalization efforts, and the city’s relationship to its physical environment, metropolitan region, and national context, all of which speaks to important themes around how environmentalism in the United States intersects with its versions of urbanism. The stated objective of the book is to set “urban gardening and agriculture into conversation with more widely studied topics in cultural and social history such as park building, city planning, and the politics of metropolitan development” (p. 10). Official public greening efforts, such as the creation of Belle Isle Park, for which the city contracted with Frederick Law Olmsted, or Mayor Coleman Young’s Farm-a-Lot program that started in the 1970s, are set alongside community initiatives, like the Detroit Urban League’s “Clean Up and Paint Up” campaign in the early years of the Great Migration and the recent work of the Detroit Black Community Food Security Network, to explore the conflicts around place, race, class, and power that shaped and are shaping Detroit’s milieu. The chronologically arranged case studies are framed by a concise and engaging introductory chapter entitled “Greening Detroit’s History” that could serve as a stand-alone case study in an undergraduate course, because it grapples, in a balanced way, with the many dichotomies represented by Detroit: community and industrial development, rust and green, desperation and inspiration, and ultimately decay and hope. One of the books strengths is to show how space in the city “took on different visions, forms, and meanings for different groups of people” (p. 10). Readers will learn about the wide range of historical figures, interest groups, and neighborhood organizations, particularly in the African-American areas of the East Side, the West Side, and Eight Mile Wyoming, that have been explicitly engaged in work at the intersection of urban development and the environment. The community work, at times, complimented the agenda of the city’s White leadership, however there have also been
在《汽车城绿色》一书中,作者Joseph S. Cialdella带领读者进行了一次迷人的穿越时空之旅,在美国标志性的工业城市,现在是后工业城市,密歇根州的底特律,人们试图调和自然的利益和发展的压力。凭借历史学家对档案资料的关注,以及他在美国研究博士研究中培养的跨学科方法,Cialdella专注于底特律经济和政治发展的每个主要阶段中明显的动态政治生态。对于那些对底特律的历史、社区领导、复兴努力以及城市与自然环境、大都市地区和国家背景的关系感兴趣的本科生和研究生来说,这本书是一本有益的读物,所有这些都涉及到有关美国环境保护主义如何与其版本的城市主义交叉的重要主题。这本书的既定目标是将“城市园艺和农业与文化和社会历史中更广泛研究的主题(如公园建筑、城市规划和都市发展的政治)进行对话”(第10页)。官方的公共绿化努力,比如与弗雷德里克·劳·奥姆斯泰德(Frederick Law Olmsted)签订合同的百丽岛公园(Belle Isle Park)的创建,或者是市长科尔曼·杨(Coleman Young)从20世纪70年代开始的农场-停车场项目,都与社区倡议相结合,比如大迁徙早期底特律城市联盟(Detroit Urban League)的“清理和粉刷”运动,以及底特律黑人社区食品安全网络(Detroit Black community Food Security Network)最近的工作,探索围绕地点、种族、阶级、以及塑造底特律环境的力量。按时间顺序排列的案例研究由一个名为“绿化底特律的历史”的简明而引人入胜的介绍章节构成,可以作为本科课程的独立案例研究,因为它以一种平衡的方式解决了底特律所代表的许多对立:社区和工业发展,生锈和绿色,绝望和灵感,最终腐朽和希望。这本书的优势之一是展示了城市中的空间如何“对不同的人群呈现出不同的视觉、形式和意义”(第10页)。读者将了解到广泛的历史人物、利益集团和社区组织,特别是在东城、西城和怀俄明州八英里的非裔美国人地区,他们明确地从事城市发展和环境的交叉工作。社区工作,有时称赞城市的白人领导的议程,但也有
