Stalinism and the purges cut short Jasienski's career and prevented productions of his play for many years - except for a brilliant constructivist staging in Prague in 1933. The Mannequins' Ball can now take its place along with Capek's R.U.R. as one of the major twentieth-century dramas making use of the themes and techniques of human autom 410 0$aRoutledge Harwood Polish and East European theatre archive ;$vVolume 6. 606 $aRussian drama$vTranslations into English 615 0$aRussian drama 676 $a891.8527 700 $aJasienski$b Bruno$f1901-1939.,$0686252 701 $aGerould$b Daniel C$g(Daniel Charles),$f1928-2012.$0907199 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910960268503321 996 $aThe mannequins' ball$94487172 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03274nam 2200721 a 450 001 9910965978703321 005 20251116143321.0 010 $a1-134-54071-X 010 $a1-134-54072-8 010 $a1-280-40330-6 010 $a0-203-45307-7 010 $a0-203-26273-5 024 7 $a10.4324/9780203453070 035 $a(CKB)111056485547528 035 $a(EBL)178467 035 $a(OCoLC)191759996 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000265875 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11225155 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000265875 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10300922 035 $a(PQKB)10245977 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC178467 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL178467 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr5006134 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL40330 035 $a(OCoLC)252823384 035 $a(OCoLC)47863270 035 $a(FINmELB)ELB151510 035 $a(EXLCZ)99111056485547528 100 $a20020304d2002 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aUrbanization in the Island Pacific $etowards sustainable development /$fJohn Connell and John Lea 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aLondon $cRoutledge$d2002 215 $a1 online resource (255 p.) 225 1 $aRoutledge pacific rim geographies 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a0-415-51384-7 311 08$a0-415-24670-9 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $a""Book Cover""; ""Title""; ""Contents""; ""List of illustrations""; ""List of tables""; ""Preface""; ""Acknowledgements""; ""Abbreviations""; ""Introduction: an urban Pacific""; ""The context of urbanisation in the Pacific""; ""The colonial heritage""; ""Population growth and migration""; ""Economic development: towards the city?""; ""Urban issues""; ""Managing urbanisation""; ""Land and urban life""; ""Housing and the urban environment""; ""Sustaining Pacific urban society?""; ""Living in town: a sustainable future?""; ""References""; ""Index"" 330 $aManaging rapid urban growth presents a significant challenge in the small independent countries of the Pacific Islands. Although they originated in colonial times, the towns and cities are now distinctively post-colonial, with economies, environments and social structures that reflect unique island characteristics. This transformation has stimulated new concerns, such as the causes and effects of pollution, the need for employment for landless migrants, the need for adequate and affordable housing and the financing of expanding urban services.This book explores the diversity of the urban exper 410 0$aRoutledge Pacific Rim geographies. 606 $aUrbanization$zPacific Area 606 $aCities and towns$zPacific Area$xGrowth 606 $aSustainable development$zPacific Area 615 0$aUrbanization 615 0$aCities and towns$xGrowth. 615 0$aSustainable development 676 $a307.76099 700 $aConnell$b John$f1946-$0202226 701 $aLea$b John P$0128718 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910965978703321 996 $aUrbanization in the Island Pacific$94490041 997 $aUNINA
