'Demo:Polis' draws on architecture, sociology, and urban studies to offer a dynamic interdisciplinary exploration of the contemporary meaning of public space. Featuring exemplary projects - such as the High Line and Brooklyn Bridge Park in New York, Alexanderplatz and Tempelhofer Feld in Berlin, Trafalgar Square in London, the Le Ventana de Mar park in Puerto Rico, and Madrid's Campo de Cebada - as well as a range of recent, at times controversial, artistic and urban design interventions that reflect criticisms of the status quo, the book delves into various approaches to the design - and redesign - of public space.

Obwohl die Insel Kreta reiches Material zur Untersuchung von Fragen bietet, die im Mittelpunkt der Forschungen zur gesellschaftlichen Organisation im frühen Griechenland stehen, liegt die Beschäftigung mit der archaischen und klassischen Periode Kretas seit jeher am Rand des altertumswissen¬schaftlichen Interesses. Die Beiträge des Tagungsbandes analysieren aus archäologischer und historischer Sicht die strukturellen Veränderungsprozesse, die sich während der archaisch-klassischen Zeit in den kretischen Bürgerstaaten vollzogen. Erstmals werden damit die unterschiedlichen Forschungsansätze der einzelnen Disziplinen zu einer einheitli¬chen Perspektive zusammengeführt. An mehreren Beispielen wird gezeigt, wie es der kretischen Aristokratie gelang, den Prozess der Poliswerdung aktiv zu gestalten und eine stabile, da institutionalisierte Adelsherrschaft zu etablieren. Deutlich wird zudem, dass die Veränderungen in der materiellen Kultur, die seit dem Ende des 7. Jahrhunderts v. Chr. durch eine zunehmende Austerität gekennzeichnet ist, Manifestationen des strukturellen Wandels der politischen und sozialen Organisation der kretischen Poleis waren.

Containing almost 200 entries from 'accountability' to the 'Westminster model' the Encyclopedia of Democratic Thought explores all the ideas that matter to democracy past, present and future. It is destined to become the first port-of-call for all students, teachers and researchers of political science interested in democratic ideas, democratic practice, and the quality of democratic governance. The Encyclopedia provides extensive coverage of all the key concepts of democratic thought written by a stellar team of distinguished international contributors. The Encyclopedia draws on every tradition of democratic thought, as well as developing new thinking, in order to provide full coverage of the key democratic concepts and engage with their practical implications for the conduct of democratic politics in the world today. In this way, it brings every kind of democratic thinking to bear on the challenges facing contemporary democracies and on the possibilities of the democratic future. The Encyclopedia is global in scope and responds in detail to the democratic revolution of recent decades. Referring both to the established democratic states of Western Europe, North America and Australasia, and to the recent democracies of Latin America, Eastern and Central Europe, Africa and Asia, classical democratic concerns are related to new democracies, and to important changes in the older democracies. Supplemented by full bibliographical information, extensive cross-referencing and suggestions for further reading, the Encyclopedia of Democratic Thought is a unique work of reference combining the expertise of many of the world's leading political scientists, political sociologists and political philosophers. It will be welcomed as an essential resource for both teaching and for independent study, and as a solid starting point both for further research and wider exploration.

Eros and Polis examines how and why Greek theorists treated political passions as erotic. Because of the tiny size of ancient Greek cities, contemporary theory and ideology could conceive of entire communities based on desire. A recurrent aspiration was to transform the polity into one great household that would bind the citizens together through ties of mutual affection. In this study, Paul Ludwig evaluates sexuality, love and civic friendship as sources of political attachment and as bonds of political association. Studying the ancient view of eros recovers a way of looking at political phenomena that provides a bridge, missing in modern thought, between the private and public spheres, between erotic love and civic commitment. Ludwig's study thus has important implications for the theoretical foundations of community.
