OBS

This research was carried out under the auspices of the Department of Justice, Aboriginal Justice Directorate.

Outre l'étude du problème de la surreprésentation persistante des Autochtones, en tant que délinquants, dans le système de la justice pénale, cette recherche vise à donner une «voix» à un groupe d'autochtones particulièrement désavantagé qui vit en milieu urbain - un groupe généralement «visible, mais sans voix».

Serial correlation is the relationship between a given variable and a lagged version of itself over various time intervals. It measures the relationship between a variable’s current value given its past values.

  • Urban Development
CONT

Commute flow data for the Paris region, 1975 and 1982, reveal that the greatest decline occurred in the central city to central city flow, while the greatest increase occurred in outer suburb to inner suburb commutes. Other large increases took place in central city to outer suburbs, and inner suburbs to outer suburbs, implying a significant dispersion of travel flows and longer distance commutes, which in turn implies greater use of private vehicles(Jansen, 1993).

CONT

Inner Fringe. This zone is characterised by a mix of urban and rural space use.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Développement urbain
CONT

Au cœur de la Dordogne [...] [Périgueux] est un lieu de passage. Une petite commune de 982 hectares, avec un urbanisme concentré le long de la vallée de l'Isle, enchâssé entre 7 collines, sans grand espoir de développement urbain, compte tenu du relief et de la proximité d'une périphérie campagnarde. Les ménages glissent au delà de ses limites, puis de sa banlieue immédiate, avec leurs enfants.

CONT

La capitale de la région aquitaine est devenue le plus important chantier urbain d'Europe. La forêt de grues, les amas de gravats, les rues éventrées témoignent d'un effort sans précédent de transformation de la ville. Il était temps. En quarante ans, elle a perdu le tiers de ses habitants, au profit de sa banlieue, proche ou lointaine.

CONT

La création de nouveaux quartiers verts devrait permettre de réduire la circulation sur la moitié des quatre arrondissements du centre de Paris, où la vitesse sera limitée à 30 km/h. Une ligne de Batobus, sur la Seine, devrait enfin desservir Paris et sa proche banlieue.

CONT

For more than six decades the US Government has been implementing policies to stem urban blight and decay. Despite massive investments in social programs for decaying inner cities there is growing evidence of accelerating slumification and increasing social problems. Unknown to many, people in the slums and hyper-ghettos have, in their daily struggle for basis needs, developed new and innovative mechanisms for survival. These help to maintain both human dignity and a sense of community. In addition, they visibly change the community and serve as an impulse to revitalizing neighborhoods. The Community Garden Movement of New York City is a successful example of a grassroots initiative that made a visible impact on the slums by motivating the community and mobilizing endogenous potentials.

CONT

What Allen advocates increases the pressure for more new housing elsewhere in the region. If these pressures are not met to offset the constraints imposed in the Upper East Side and in similar NIMBY strongholds, all consumers will see prices escalate. Further, consumers who cannot afford increased housing prices where it is allowed of within the strongholds of constrained upper class neighborhoods, will have to crowd into older areas where only code enforcement will avoid slumification.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Habitation et logement (Urbanisme)
  • Sociologie urbaine
DEF

Résultat découlant du délabrement, de la détérioration ou de l'abandon des logements.

CONT

La baisse relative des prix résultant de ce stock abondant a amené les utilisateurs de locaux anciens à déménager vers de nouveaux bureaux, entraînant un mouvement des marchés au terme duquel les surfaces les plus anciennes ne trouvent plus preneur et sont vouées à une "taudification" rapide (Métropolis, vol. 5, no 39, (1979), p. 64).

CONT

Pour les ménages plus modestes, les contraintes sont plus nombreuses. La proximité au lieu d'emploi et le bas coût du logement se combinent pour expliquer la densification et la paupérisation des quartiers centraux et péricentraux (Joubert Park, Mayfair et Fordsburg en particulier, où se concentrent de nombreux immigrés travaillant dans la petite industrie et le commerce), en logement locatif dont la suroccupation et la taudification progressive deviennent parfois préoccupantes.

Other measures, such as the planned increase in park-and-ride sites, and building of multi-storey car parks on the inner ring road and of a tangential road link to take traffic away from the old town [Bologna], would necessitate larger investments that the city cannot currently afford. This example also shows how targeted EU support measures to improve local public transport(buses and trams) and bicycle and pedestrian traffic can substantially improve the environmental situation in cities and towns.
