Excerpt from New Ideals in the Planning of Cities, Towns and Villages: Town and City Planner This book on New Ideals in the Planning of Cities, Towns and Villages was prepared and set in type as one of a series for the Overseas Army, A. E. F., by the Department of Citizenship, Army Educational Commission. Before it was actually printed, word was received from France to send over no more materials, because the men in the overseas service were being so rapidly returned to their homes. The purpose of the book, however, remains; viz., "to present fundamental principles, and stimulate intelligent study of the problems of citizenship." Under these circumstances, it seemed desirable to complete its publication at once, and arrange for its circulation. The American City Bureau has responded to this call, and agreed to cooperate in a program looking toward the fulfillment, so far as possible, of the original purpose of the handbook. In taking this action, the American City Bureau is giving one more expression to its wide and sound interest in everything that affects vitally the welfare of cities, towns and villages. All the illustrations in this volume arc taken, through the courtesy of the National Municipal League and D. Appleton & Company, from the following copyrighted books: Satellite Cities, by Graham R. Taylor; City planning, edited by John Nolen; and Town Planning for Small Communities, by Charles S.

John Nolen’s New Ideals in the Planning of Cities, Towns, and Villages is the most thorough assessment of city planning written by an American practitioner before 1920. It records the interplay of urban reform in Europe and the United States, the rise of the planning expert, the design of new towns, and the technique for directing urban expansion on systematic lines. Most important, it documents the blueprint for investing the "peace dividend" of the Great War to make urban life "more fit for democracy". Written for men fighting to make the world safe for democracy, New Ideals revealed how the domestic part of the peace program could justify their sacrifice. The wartime housing initiative had improved the living conditions of industrial workers and the same public regulation and control of the layout and character of residential neighbourhoods could provide what "men of service expect to find on their return, a new and better type of workman’s home." While New Ideals strained towards the utopian, experience tempered Nolen’s expectations and the high aims of the book were not immediately realised in a post-war society seeking a return to pre-war normalcy. However in the last decade, Nolen’s planned communities have been closely studied as the demand for pedestrian-oriented neighbourhoods set on sustainable lines has moved from novelty to policy. New Ideals is an important text not only for its design template, but also its aspirations. Nolen’s call to "make cites that will serve the needs--physical, economic, and spiritual-- of all people" lays at the heart of the city planning profession and the lessons Nolen imparted inform a new generation planning cities to be both resilient and just.

In cities throughout the world, there is an increasingly ubiquitous presence of distinct social and spatial areas - urban villages, cultural and ethnic quarters. These spaces are sites where capital and culture intertwine in new ways. City of Quarters brings together some of the most prominent authors writing about urban villages to provide the first systematic and multi-disciplinary overview of this high-profile urban phenomenon. They address key questions such as 'What is the role of urban villages and quarters in the contemporary city?' and 'What are the economic, political, socio-spatial and cultural practices and processes that surround these urban spaces?' Blending conceptual chapters with theoretically directed case studies from all over the world, this book includes issues such as local and regional development strategies, production, consumption, the creative industries, popular culture, identity, lifestyle, and tourism.
