Chroniques / Logement informel, bidonvilles et fractures économiques : Cape Town post-apartheid. Posted by urbanites on Mardi, septembre 10, 2013 · 1 Comment Alexandre Tavin Dans un contexte d’urbanisation sans précédent à travers le monde, l’habitat précaire informel constitue un défi majeur dans les pays en développement.
UN-Habitat estime qu’aujourd’hui, près d’un milliard de personnes vivent dans des bidonvilles, chiffre qui devrait doubler d’ici 2030. L’Afrique du Sud pourrait sortir du lot : sa constitution a été louée pour son postcolonialisme, promettant une maison pour tous, notamment à travers des politiques progressives de logement sociaux. Cependant l’Afrique du Sud doit faire face à des flux exceptionnels de migrations vers les villes depuis la fin de l’apartheid et connait un déficit de logements de près de 2,5 millions d’unités.

Rocinha, Rio de Janeiro New economic processes and forms of urbanization are apparent in today’s society. With over half of the world’s population now urban, and a great percentage of the urbanization happening informally, the discourse of globalization and the global city can no longer exclude and is no longer separate from the informal one.
How should we manage urban growth, acknowledging that a large percentage of it lies in the realm of the favela? Like this: Like Loading...

'Guerrilla stripers' add bike lanes to Detroit Avenue in Cleveland to protest slow city action.

" The lanes consist of sometimes meandering strips of tape installed about four feet from the curb on both sides of the avenue between West 29th and West 32nd streets, with stenciled bike lane markings for "sharrows," or shared lanes, sprayed onto the pavement. Anonymous online commenters said the markings were sprayed chalk, not paint. A steady stream of bicyclists used the lanes Monday afternoon, and motorists generally respected the stripes. “It’s a liability issue if it’s not done right,” VanSickle said in a telephone interview.
