It looks at these issues by examining the impact of the Rio Declaration and assesses the extent to which it has made a difference. Consuming Cities examines this impact using case studies from around the world including: the USA, Japan, Germany, the UK, China, India, Sweden, Poland, Australia and Indonesia The contributors all have direct experience of the urban environment and urban policies in the countries on which they write and offer an authoritaSustainable developmentUrban ecology (Sociology)ecologicallysustainabledevelopmentriodeclarationecologicalmodernisationconferencesustainabilityglobalSustainable development.Urban ecology (Sociology)304.2/09173/2307.76Elander Ingemarauth270785Low Nicholas270788MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910765992403321Consuming cities3651668UNINA02485 am 22004333u 450 991076579530332120230131134208.0952-222-786-210.21435/sfh.17(CKB)4100000000883909(OAPEN)638203(EXLCZ)99410000000088390920171018d|||| uy enguuuuu---auuuuRhetorics of Nordic democracyHelsinki, FinlandFinnish Literature Society / SKS20101 online resource (297)952-222-228-3 "Democracy is today a concept that is overwhelmingly positively evaluated almost everywhere. A lot has been written about socio-economic and cultural backgrounds of democratic regimes as well as their institutional settings. By contrast, not much is known about the political manoeuvres and speech acts by which 'democracy' has been tied to particular regions and cultures in concrete historical situations. This book discusses a series of efforts to rhetorically produce a particular Nordic version of democracy. It shows that the rhetorical figure 'Nordic democracy' was a product of the age of totalitarianism and the Cold War. It explores the ways in which 'Nordic democracy' was used, mainly by the social democrats, to provide the welfare politics with cultural and historical legitimacy and foundations. Thus, it also acknowledges the ideological and geopolitical context in which the 'Nordic welfare state' was conceptualised and canonised.
The contributors of the book are specialists on Nordic politics and history, who share a particular interest in political rhetoric and conceptual history.
