實際上這是本社會學的書,Jane Jacobs講這麼多就是一句話: better city, better life,死與生指的是城市的decay和regeneration,安全(safety)隻是催發多樣性(diversity)的一個必要因素,單獨拿齣來作為設計目的毫無意義。若隻為安全而各種封閉各種fencing,那就更可笑瞭。

Jane Jacobs, OC, O.Ont (May 4, 1916 – April 25, 2006) was an American-born Canadian writer and activist with primary interest in communities and urban planning and decay. She is best known for The Death and Life of Great American Cities (1961), a powerful critique of the urban renewal policies of the 1950s in the United States. The book has been credited with reaching beyond planning issues to influence the spirit of the times.
Along with her well-known printed works, Jacobs is equally well-known for organizing grassroots efforts to block urban-renewal projects that would have destroyed local neighborhoods. She was instrumental in the eventual cancellation of the Lower Manhattan Expressway, and after moving to Canada in 1968, equally influential in canceling the Spadina Expressway and the associated network of highways under construction.
A direct and fundamentally optimistic indictment of the short-sightedness and intellectual arrogance that has characterized much of urban planning in this century, The Death and Life of Great American Cities has, since its first publication in 1961, become the standard against which all endeavors in that field are measured. In prose of outstanding immediacy, Jane Jacobs writes about what makes streets safe or unsafe; about what constitutes a neighborhood, and what function it serves within the larger organism of the city; about why some neighborhoods remain impoverished while others regenerate themselves. She writes about the salutary role of funeral parlors and tenement windows, the dangers of too much development money and too little diversity. Compassionate, bracingly indignant, and always keenly detailed, Jane Jacobs's monumental work provides an essential framework for assessing the vitality of all cities.
我读这本书是因为要写城市社会学的读书报告。以下是读书报告,欢迎指正。 阅读了《美国大城市的死与生》之后,我想起了自己的经历。我住在远离市中心的一个大型小区里。所谓“大型”,指的是整个小区的门牌号码有近80个,人口上万。小区的景色很优美,有一个和未名湖相比差不...
評分我常常在城市中迷失——在北京满是尘土的未来朝阳CBD里,在上海习以为常的延安高架的车流堵塞中或是在广州那无限延伸的混乱的广州大道上——这就是所谓步向美好的城市? 勃兴、衰败与重新复活的发展阶段与发展边际在当下的中国城市,表现得仿如潮汐般迅速变更。我们身边满是那...
評分先来讲个很老套的故事,我记得以前在日志里也写过的。 一位妈妈给她自己的妈妈买了很多好吃的,但每次老太太都留给孙子吃,看着孙子吃得高兴,老太太很快乐。有一天妈妈发现了,逼着老太太吃掉自己买的吃的,老太太很伤心,一边哭一边吃掉那些好吃的东西。 这是我很小的时候看...
評分下面这些都不是我写的,原链接在这里。 http://book.douban.com/review/6190677/ 我想到的作者都想到了,我就不重写一遍浪费时间了。 要想在城市的街道和地区生发丰富的多样性,四个条件不可缺少: 1)地区以及其尽可能多的内部区域的主要功能要多于一个,最好是多于两个。 2...
評分走出庭院之后 ——城市小区的兴起及新人际空间的形成 ■ varro 现代城市生活是在走出庭院之后开始的。这种生活正在日益把人们限定在一个个促狭的空间里——或许是有形的物理空间,比如办公室的格子间;或许是无形的心理空间,你看得出对面走来那个穿阿玛尼西服的男人,此...
