Shrinking Cities - Interviews...

On Smart City last weekend, host Carol Colletta interviewed...

Thorsten Wiechmann has studied decline in Dresden, Germany, Cristina Martinez-Fernandez's research is focused on shrinking cities in Australia, and Emmanuèle Sabot compares cities in the United Kingdom and France.

Here's a link to the audio file and recent interviews. All three were participants at the Shrinking Cities Conclave that was held in Berkeley on February 8-9, 2007 at the University of California. Here's the conference website. Abstracts of these three conference participants - right here.

Oh, and if you haven't listened to Jay Williams - 36 year old and first black Mayor of Youngstown OH was a guest on Smart City a few weeks ago. Here's that link and audio file - Learning from Youngstown!

There is a quality even meaner than outright ugliness or disorder, and this meaner quality is the dishonest mask
of pretended order, achieved by ignoring or suppressing the real order that is struggling to exist and to be served.
- Jane Jacobs (1916-2006) from The Death and Life of Great American Cities, 1961.
