Here we are: Boundaries issue n. 10 just released ! «Architectures for Emergencies II» Order before August 10 and save! «...Among the different meanings of “emergency” we have chosen to focus particularly on post-crisis reconstruction, including both natural and man-made disasters: earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, pollution, climate change, post-war reconstruction, from economic to cultural crisis. To face an emergency means to deal with problems of a different nature, some requiring immediateness, whilst others needing longer subsidence times. Sometimes it is a matter of providing housing to those who have lost theirs, other times it is a matter of safeguarding human dignity, without forgetting the importance of the memory of places. These themes are joined by others, that both for the length of the economic crisis, and for the lack of interest – or mismanagement – by institutions, policies and Non Government Organisations (NGOs), have recently gained a disturbing dimension: poverty, unemployment, housing crisis, pollution, and the crises of culture and education».
