A Guide to Canadian Architectural Styles, Second Edition

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Ricketts, Shannon / Maitland, Leslie / Hucker, Jacqueline, PUBLISHER: University of Toronto Press, In the ten years since the first edition of A Guide to Canadian Architectural Styles was published, the heritage movement has gained strength, sensitizing many to the value of our architectural legacy. This new edition reflects an enriched understanding of architecture that focuses more on the visual and cultural setting of the built environment and less on individual works seen in isolation. Today, we cherish the buildings that characterize the original "Main Street / rue Principale" - the bank building, the shops, the old hotel, the post office, the city hall. There is more recognition for older inner-city neighbourhoods, with their row housing, churches, and community halls as well as for our often romantic attachment to vernacular rural architecture. This interest in more ordinary-looking architecture marks both the democratization of Canada's heritage movement and its coming of age, for the value of these more modest structures lies in their unique ability to sustain a sense of identity. This Guide provides an essential profile of the origins and development of the many architectural styles across Canada, from early settlement to the postmodern period, and discusses special forms such as religious, civic, domestic, commercial, and industrial design. While remaining true to the accessible format of the first edition, the second offers updated and considerably expanded text, as well as many more illustrations. A Guide to Canadian Architectural Styles, second edition is an invaluable reference tool for heritage activists and planners; university and college courses in Canadian architecture, history, and cultural resource management; and the interested general reader. Comments: "A thoughtful, elegantly written and easy-to-read guide to over three hundred years of architectural style in Canada." - Kelly Crossman, Carleton University Shannon Ricketts is an architectural historian working with Parks Canada in Ottawa. She has researched and published on Canadian architectural history and on the history of the heritage movement in Canada. Leslie Maitland is an architectural historian and planner with Parks Canada in Ottawa. She has published several books and articles on Canadian architectural history. Jacqueline Hucker is an architectural historian working with Parks Canada in Ottawa.

Globalization, Development and Human Society

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: McGrew, Anthony / Poku, Nana K., PUBLISHER: Polity Press, World poverty and development are more salient than ever on the global political agenda. The campaigns of the global justice movement, the growing securitization of development in the aftermath of 9-11, the intensification of global inequality, and the perceived threats of global pandemics, migrations and failed states have contributed to a sense of renewed urgency. The contributors to this volume, including Bjorn Hettne, Fantu Cheru, Jeffrey Haynes and Bonny Ibhawah, share a common intellectual aspiration to re-unite the study of development with the study of international relations or global politics as it is more broadly conceived today. Although globalization has transformed the context of development, it has yet to significantly transform for the better the prospects for real development or human security amongst the worlds most vulnerable communities. Whether globalization, development and human security are inescapably trapped within a vicious circle or a virtuous cycle is the central concern of this book.
