Beskrivelse
Summary:Symbols and legacies of a prestigious past, railway stations and their neighbourhoods are now the focus of strategies for adapting to global change. The book explores the various technical processes involved in this approach (reuse of building materials for renovation, environmental and landscape integration, energy transformations, etc.) and shows how these processes link railway regeneration to territorial development. The twenty-one experts assembled in this book deploy critical approaches and international perspectives to think of railway stations as transdisciplinary border objects where naturalistic, architectural and political perspectives can be articulated. As such, the book will enlighten users, as well as residents and citizens, on the processes of socio-technical transitions underway, as much as it will help them question the costs, effects and ends of the eco-modernization of our public goods and services.
