Résumé : This Handbook is the first to explore the emergent field of 'placemaking' in terms of the recent research, teaching and learning, and practice agenda for the next few years. Offering valuable theoretical and practical insights from the leading scholars and practitioners in the field, it provides cutting-edge interdisciplinary research on the placemaking sector. Placemaking has seen a paradigmatic shift in urban design, planning and policy to engage the community voice, and in the arts, an increasing concern for place-based community development and culturally led urban regeneration. This Handbook examines the development of placemaking, its emerging theories, and its future directions. The book is structured in seven distinct sections curated by experts in the areas concerned. This organisation of the book considers the sectors that operate alongside the core placemaking practice. This seminal Handbook offers a timely contribution and international perspectives for the growing field of placemaking. It will be of interest to academics and students of placemaking, urban design, urban planning and policy, architecture, geography, cultural studies, and the arts

Résumé : This volume is the first authoritative reference work solely dedicated to the various components of illiberalism. Illiberalism is most often discussed in political and constitutional terms, yet illiberalism is rooted in society and cannot be limited to only political or legal treatment. Illiberal trends are present all over the world and are not fixed to one era. This Handbook comprises over sixty individual chapters, each dedicated to different aspects of the same phenomenon, presented through the lens of different disciplines and authored by an internationally recognized expert in the field. It charts all representative countries and regions where illiberalism is present and deals with the most important historical antecedents. The Routledge Handbook of Iliberalism will form an important component of any library's holding and will be of benefit as an academic reference, as well as being of practical value to anyone who wishes to gain a clear understanding of the concepts required to explain this conundrum. - Note de l'éditeur

Résumé : "India's growing economic and socio-political importance on the global stage has triggered an increased interest in the country. Now available in paperback, this Handbook is a reference guide, which surveys the current state of Indian politics and provides a basic understanding of the ways in which the world's largest democracy functions. The Handbook is structured around four main topics: political change, political economy, the diversity of regional development, and the changing role of India in the world. Chapters examine how and why democracy in India put down firm roots, but also why the quality of governance offered by India's democracy continues to be low. The acceleration of economic growth since the mid-1980s is discussed, and the Handbook goes on to look at the political and economic changes in selected states, and how progress across Indian states continues to be uneven. It concludes by touching on the issue of India's international relations, both in South Asia and the wider world. The Handbook offers an invigorating initiation into the seemingly daunting and complex terrain of Indian politics. It is an invaluable resource for academics, researchers, policy analysts, and graduate and undergraduate students studying Indian politics." Publisher's description
