The Hidden School

What constitutes the invisible layers of an architecture school? The EAAE Annual Conference of 2019 is titled ‘The Hidden School’, aiming to discuss an architecture school’s true character, the substance and the quality of architectural education in the broadest sense, and that which is beyond the stated curricula, yet — whether concretely manifested or subliminally perceived — embodies the culture of the school. The conference, hosted in 2019 by the Faculty of Architecture in Zagreb, focuses upon the subliminal quality of architectural education, that which is beyond the stated curricula and is hard to document through quality evaluation procedures. It can be observed through several indicative aspects, often contributing to the identification of what makes the ‘true’ spirit or substantial quality of the school and uniqueness or peculiarity of its educational path. It can also be the tacit meaning situated between the lines of the syllabus, or generated by the students that contribute to it and the educators that personify it, the various shapes of informal learning, or the spaces it takes place in.

De stad van de toekomst

Stations as Nodes

At the main point of intersection between the railway and the city, stations are key elements in the organization of the intermodal transport as well as catalysts of urban developments in metropolises, medium and small cities. The focus of this publication is to explore the enrichment of a renewed approach of railway stations as intermodal nodes, therefore acting as breeding grounds for both urban and social developments. In this publication, invited experts from practice and knowledge institutes in France and the Netherlands share their common experience and draw on specific aspects and problems of conception, management and development of stations. A brief overview of the results of the two initiatives ‘Stations of the Future’ and the summer school ‘Integrated Mobility Challenges in Future Metropolitan Areas’ is here illustrated, accompanied by photo reportages of both events and by a curated reportage of the Amsterdam Sloterdijk station area.

City of the Future / Stad van de Toekomst

How can we design and develop a transformation area in an integral way into an attractive and future-proof urban environment? This is the the central question of the research project Stad van de Toekomst (City of the Future). This question is motivated by urgent social as well as local tasks in the urban areas, varying from housing demand, social inclusiveness, new economy, climate adaptation, and the like, taking into account the transitions in energy, mobility, circularity and digitization. Based on future scenarios, the aim and intended results of this study are to obtain insights into the central and local questions in order to inform integral area development from systems and networks. In addition, also transitions to other spatial conditions are addressed. Such insights can have significance for the developments of a number of locations, and contribute to the policy of local and central governments. The study was initiated from the Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management (Min.IenW) in close coordination with the BNA (The Royal Institute of Dutch Architects), Delft University of Technology/DIMI (Delft Deltas, Infrastructures & Mobility Initiatives) and the Delta Metropolis Association. Other project partners involved are the Ministry of Internal Affairs (Min.BiZa) and the municipalities of Amsterdam, Eindhoven, The Hague, Rotterdam and Utrecht.

Mandela, l'apartheid e il nuovo Sudafrica. Ombre e luci su una storia tutta da scrivere

La storia "ancora da scrivere" del Sudafrica di Nelson Mandela e del suo partito, l'African National Congress (ANC), rappresenta una ulteriore dimostrazione di quella decolonizzazione che, come scrive Rino Cammilleri nella Prefazione "fu solo l'inizio dei problemi dell'Africa lasciata a se stessa". Dopo una sintetica storia del Sudafrica contemporaneo, il libro documenta le poco conosciute implicazioni di Mandela e dell'ANC con il comunismo nazionale ed internazionale, le ombre che hanno accompagnato la fine dell'apartheid (dal dilagare della criminalità e dell'Aids alle scelte abortiste ed omosessualiste del nuovo Sudafrica) e, infine, la collocazione geopolitica di un Paese che s'interroga sul suo destino dopo la morte, avvenuta il 5 dicembre 2013, del padre della sua emancipazione.
