Weltweit leben Abermillionen von Menschen in Städten. Die "naturferne" Lebensweise der Stadtmenschen, die sich längst auch auf dem Lande verbreitet hat, bringt eine FÃ"lle von Herausforderungen und Problemen mit sich.Die alte Metropole Wien im Herzen Europas scheint die meisten ihrer drängendsten Umweltprobleme bereits in der Vergangenheit gelöst zu haben. Ist dieser Eindruck zutreffend? Wie sind die Wiener und Wienerinnen im Laufe der Geschichte mit ihrer "Umwelt Stadt" umgegangen? Auf welche Weise haben sie den einstigen Naturraum zwischen Donau und Wienerwald in eine Stadtlandschaft verwandelt? Welche ihrer UmweltmaÃYnahmen waren kurzlebig, welche von Dauer und zukunftsweisend?Mit Fragen solcher Art beschäftigen sich die neunzig Autorinnen und Autoren aus Wissenschaft und Praxis, die der vorliegende Band zu einer "Geschichte des Natur- und Lebensraumes Wien" versammelt hat. Auch bei diesem RÃ"ckblick geht es im Grunde darum, die Gegenwart besser verstehen zu lernen und Ã"ber die Zukunft nachzudenken.

Through interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary perspectives, and with an emphasis on exploring patterns as well as distinct and unique conditions across the globe, this collection examines advanced and cutting-edge theoretical and methodological approaches to the study of the health of urban populations. Despite the growing interest in global urban health, there are limited resources available that provide an extensive and advanced exploration into the health of urban populations in a transnational context. This volume offers a high-quality and comprehensive examination of global urban health issues by leading urban health scholars from around the world. The book brings together a multi-disciplinary perspective on urban health, with chapter contributions emphasizing disciplines in the social sciences, construction sciences and medical sciences. The co-editors of the collection come from a number of different disciplinary backgrounds that have been at the forefront of urban health research, including public health, epidemiology, geography, city planning and urban design. The book is intended to be a reference in global urban health for research libraries and faculty collections. It will also be appropriate as a text for university class adoption in upper-division under-graduate courses and above. The proposed volume is extensive and offers enough breadth and depth to enable it to be used for courses emphasizing a U.S., or wider Western perspective, as well as courses on urban health emphasizing a global context.

This book is an introductory instrument to the main themes of environmental history, illustrating its development over time, methodological implications, results achieved and those still under discussion. But the overriding aspiration is to show that the doubts, methods and knowledge elaborated by environmental history have a heuristic value that is far from negligible precisely in its attitude to the most consolidated major historiography. For this reason, this book gives an overview of environmental history as it is an essential component of the basic knowledge of global history. At the same time, it introduces specific aspects which are useful both for anyone wanting to deepen his/her studies of environmental historiography and for those interested in one of the many disciplinary areas – from rural history to urban history, from the history of technology to the history of public health, etc. with which environmental history develops a dialogue.

Urban gardening and agriculture have become important elements of sustainable urban planning in the context of persistent urbanization amid limited resources. However, a consideration of the cultural-historical dimension has been lacking up to now. The editors present the first comprehensive outline of traditional forms of food production in cities to help preserve this valuable knowledge. On the basis of current research findings, they develop new perspectives and guidelines for recognizing traditional food production systems as an aspect of cultural heritage and for dealing with urban agriculture worldwide.

The material and energy flows that characterized the metabolism of preindustrial and industrial societies were organized through complex infrastructures based on interwoven social and natural elements. Analyzing infrastructures from many methodological and thematic perspectives, the present volume adopts an extensive periodization to identify the undeniable changes caused by industrialization and the persistence of pre-existing features and dynamics. The contributions range from the late Middle Ages to the 1990s and deepen historical characteristics of urban metabolism, the study of energy systems and their transitions, and the management and control of water resources. These reveal the strategies societies and states adopted to transform and adapt their surrounding environment in a constant and challenging equilibrium of diverse interests, whose impact over time has had environmental consequences on a global scale.

What do we mean when we say that cities have altered humanity’s interaction with nature? The more people are living in cities, the more nature is said to be "urbanizing": turned into a resource, mobilized over long distances, controlled, transformed and then striking back with a vengeance as "natural disaster". Confronting insights derived from Environmental History, Science and Technology Studies or Political Ecology, Urbanizing Nature aims to counter teleological perspectives on the birth of modern "urban nature" as a uniform and linear process, showing how new technological schemes, new actors and new definitions of nature emerged in cities from the sixteenth to the twentieth century.

This book describes and analyses necessities for a more resource-efficient world. It discusses solutions for a more sustainable use of natural resources, addressing decision-makers and experts from the fields of policy development, industry, academia, civil society, and the media. The book presents strategies, concrete ways and examples of achieving more sustainable resource use in practice. Following on from two previous titles published on Factor X by the Umweltbundesamt (German Environment Agency), entitled “Factor X: Policy, Strategies and Instruments for a Sustainable Resource Use” (2013) and “Factor X: Re-source – Designing the Recycling Society” (2014), this book further investigates how savings in natural resources and resource efficiency improvements could be achieved, focusing on good practice examples that cover different resource categories, pursue different efficiency strategies and come from different sectors, e.g. innovative products or services, technology, man agement approaches, systemic approaches, etc. The background against which this work is done has a highly comprehensive span, from the first Declaration of the Factor X Club in the nineties, to the European Commission’s Roadmap to a Resource Efficient Europe that was published in September 2011, through to the German Federal government’s German Resource Efficiency Programme (ProgRess I and II) in 2012 and 2016, the G7 Alliance for Resource Efficiency, and most recently the development and implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).

Es ist an der Zeit, den Konflikt zwischen wirtschaftlichen Interessen und den drän gen den Problemen des Umweltschutzes in Städten und Stadtregionen aufzuzeigen und über eine Analyse der wirtschafts- und umweltpolitischen Instrumente der Kom munen Wege zur Konfliktlösung herauszuarbeiten. Studien, die dies sowohl wirt schaftswissenschaftlich fundiert als auch mit Bliek auf die administrativen bzw. kom munalrechtlichen Spezifika in Angriff nehmen, liegen kaum vor. Daher ist Ulrich Malys Arbeit verdienstvoll und von besonderer Aktualität. An der Schnittstelle von Stadtökonomie und Umweltökonomie werden kommunalpoli tische Ziele und Mittel nicht nur mit den Instrumenten der traditionellen Theorie der Wirtschaftspolitik behandelt, sondern zugleich in weiter gespannte juristische, so ziale, kulturelle und geschichtliche Zusammenhänge gestellt. Mit der Herausarbei tung eines Beurteilungsschemas und der Prüfung kommunalpolitischer Instrumente im Hinblick auf ihre Eignung, den Konflikt zwischen ökonomischen Interessen und Umweltschutz zu verringern, vermittelt die Untersuchung einen detaillierten Einblick in Chancen und Risiken der kommunalen Bewältigung der Umweltprobleme. Anhand dieses Prüfrasters läBt sich nicht nur untersuchen, welche Instrumente aus dem Bereich der Umweltökonomie den Katalog kommunalpolitischer Instrumente er gänzen könnten, sondern es zeigt sich auch, daB die rechtzeitige Berücksichtigung des Umweltschutzes bereits bei der Ausgestaltung traditioneller kommunalpolitischer Instrumente und bei der Erweiterung des Instrumentariums selbst Hilfestellung zu lei sten vermag, den Konflikt Wirtschaft-Umwelt auf kommunaler Ebene zu entschärfen.
