You will hear our concern about how the work we put in place at the outset is now being used in popular debates as well as other anecdotes. We consider the recent YouTube debate that Warren participated in in Italy and clear up the misunderstandings that followed that episode. We provide our own perspective on the way the GND debate is unfolding. I hope you find the 38 minute video that follows interesting. Best wishes to all for It is a public holiday today in Australia and I have to catch a plane to travel North. And it is Wednesday anyway and I am training myself off writing blog posts for that day.
I was going to say under the Tories, but then life under the previous Labour government was also made harder for those in the regional areas, particularly as fiscal rectitude became the norm. You will find the movie hard going that is for sure. Spread the word It also points out that the debt incurred with the IMF is likely to be used by the government to pay supranational tribunal rulings against Ecuador, like the one in favor of Chevron.
Since , the presence of these companies has increasingly angered communities who have been resisting proposed mines on their land, saying they were never consulted or gave consent to exploration," says Rebekah Hayden, a member of the Rainforest Action Group in Melbourne, Australia. In their open letter, international organizations urge Ecuadorian authorities to respect the self-determining decisions of Indigenous peoples, rural communities and local governments to keep their territories free of extractive industries in defense of life and nature.

According to Hal Rhodes, from Yes to Life No to Mining International, "In Ecuador, as in many nations across our planet, indigenous and local communities have been asserting their rights to say no to mining for decades. Mining and other extractive industries might deliver multinational profits, but their deadly impacts are externalised onto communities and ecosystems who bear the true costs. They must be supported, not undermined, by a state that professes respect for indigenous rights, and Rights of Nature in its Constitution. Once the market took off again and development activities kicked off, most of the temporary projects disappeared to the regret of many local citizens, leading to public debate over the value and objectives of temporary projects for urban development.
Following the sale of assets, the municipality was able to cover infrastructure costs in the Western Harbour prior to the financial crisis; believed at the time to be a necessary precondition for developers to invest in the area. Developers, however, subsequently found a ready market for their products and owners have also earned good money when within two years the price of their flats doubled 10 Fig. In London, although public expenditure has been dramatically cut back during the austerity years, expenditure on new public space projects has faired relatively well care of its association with expenditure on the Olympic Games, and latterly on public transport.
During this period also, Government has been on a journey. In the past, it viewed such infrastructure as costly bits of technical kit to be delivered at minimum cost to the public purse and with little concern for the local impact. Only now is a realisation dawning that such investments are pieces of city building with huge place-making potential well beyond the infrastructure itself Savills , pp. From utilitarian to leisure and specialist uses Whilst the gradual re-balancing of space already refereed to in favour of pedestrians and cyclists is likely to be a long-term trend across the four cities, other pressures are also acting to change how public spaces are used.
A tale of two cities and different populations If, for some users, public spaces have become places of leisure, for others this is not the case. The rise in visible homelessness has also been dramatic, with changes in migration patterns across Europe, austerity-led reductions in benefits entitlements in the UK, and cuts in services for the homeless and those with mental health difficulties, all leading to significant rises in rough sleepers Crisis Fig.
People find their favourite and use it like their own garden. The park no longer belongs to the municipality, it belongs to you and me. And we use it very differently. In Oslo, the management of public spaces and parks has been progressively outsourced. When first mooted, this raised concerns because of the unique competences that already existed in the public sector. The city also has an increasing range of public activities occurring on private land and the private management of publicly accessible space has occurred more often.

In this new and exclusive neighbourhood on the Oslo waterfront, the public have access to facilities for swimming in the fjord which is popular on hot summer days. In the UK, a second narrative of community empowerment and localism has accompanied that of austerity. Some see this as a cynical attempt to paper over the cracks left by cuts in public services Hambleton but community and local action has certainly flourished in some of the gaps.
Notably this has included significant numbers of community groups now involved in green space management across London Bawden , such as the Rocky Park community garden in Bethnal Green where volunteers have transformed an unloved hang-out into a productive space for flowers and vegetables. Elsewhere, crowd funding is being used to innovate new projects as diverse as The Line art walk along the River Lee Fig.

In London, the installation of security measures physical barriers in a few high-profile public spaces has been the subject of much debate with a degree of target hardening around prominent buildings such as the Houses of Parliament and recently on bridges over the River Thames Fig. The resulting interrogation of security arrangements led to accusations that government had been negligent given the ease with which it was possible to drive up to the entrance of a government building with a car bomb NOU , p.
Careful consideration is now being given to security issues and how that balances with democratic access in relation to the public spaces being proposed for the new government quarter Regjeringskvartalet proposed in Oslo. Unfortunately, on this most confounding of management issues, the vehicle attacks in London demonstrated how profoundly difficult it is to prevent such attacks without impacting on the democratic nature of European cities.
