Free Download Cornelia James Cannon and the Future American Race By Maria I. Diedrich
2010 | 289 Pages | ISBN: 1558498419 | PDF | 8 MB
This biography examines the life of Cornelia James Cannon (1876-1969), a Radcliffe graduate, wife of a prominent Harvard professor, and mother of five who became a prolific writer and "all-purpose reformer," in the words of her son-in-law, Arthur Schlesinger Jr. In addition to writing eight novels, Cannon published dozens of essays during the 1920s and 1930s on a broad range of controversial topics. She advocated on behalf of women's rights, birth control, and public education and wrote provocative essays on immigration policy, welfare reform, and eugenics.According to Maria I. Diedrich, it was the last of these concerns, Cannon's interest in what she and her husband called "the future of the race"―a term conflating ideas of class, race, and ethnicity―that inspired many of her varied reform activities. From the vantage point of today it may seem hard to understand how a social reformer and outspoken feminist could also embrace eugenicist principles. Yet, in the context of the time such views were not uncommon among progressive thinkers.Far from being an extremist or even exceptional, Cornelia James Cannon was a woman representative of her social class and historical moment. By disentangling the threads of Cannon's life and thought, Diedrich seeks to shed light on the experiences of other progressive reformers of the interwar years whose interest in social justice often went hand in hand with racially exclusive notions of Americanness.Maria I. Diedrich is professor of English and American studies at the University of Muenster. Her previous books include Love across Color Lines: Ottile Assing and Frederick Douglass and Black Columbiad: Defining Moments in African American Literature and Culture, coedited with Werner Sollors. Review"This biography not only tells the story of a particular woman about whom little has been written; it personalizes the development of eugenics and illustrates how fairly average or middle-class intellectuals could develop a strong belief in this pseudo-scientific ideology."―Sue Currell, coeditor of Popular Eugenics: National Efficiency and American Mass Culture in the 1930s"College-level collections strong in social issues, history, and biography will find this a fine study."―Midwest Book Review"Maria I. Diedrich does a masterful job of providing an empathetic portrait of Cannon. We feel that we understand this ambitious, vivacious, and witty woman, even as we decry her biologistic monocausalism."―American Historical Review

Contradictions of Neoliberal Planning Cities, Policies, and Politics (2024)

Free Download Tuna Taşan-Kok, Guy Baeten, "Contradictions of Neoliberal Planning: Cities, Policies, and Politics"
English | 2011 | pages: 228 | ISBN: 9048189233, 940073817X | PDF | 3,5 mb
This book argues that the concepts of 'neoliberalism' and 'neoliberalisation,' while in common use across the whole range of social sciences, have thus far been generally overlooked in planning theory and the analysis of planning practice. Offering insights from papers presented during a conference session at a meeting of the Association of American Geographers in Boston in 2008 and a number of commissioned chapters, this book fills this significant hiatus in the study of planning. What the case studies from Africa, Asia, North-America and Europe included in this volume have in common is that they all reveal the uneasy cohabitation of 'planning' - some kind of state intervention for the betterment of our built and natural environment - and 'neoliberalism' - a belief in the superiority of market mechanisms to organize land use and the inferiority of its opposite, state intervention. Planning, if anything, may be seen as being in direct contrast to neoliberalism, as something that should be rolled back or even annihilated through neoliberal practice. To combine 'neoliberal' and 'planning' in one phrase then seems awkward at best, and an outright oxymoron at worst. To admit to the very existence or epistemological possibility of 'neoliberal planning' may appear to be a total surrender of state planning to market superiority, or in other words, the simple acceptance that the management of buildings, transport infrastructure, parks, conservation areas etc. beyond the profit principle has reached its limits in the 21st century. Planning in this case would be reduced to a mere facilitator of 'market forces' in the city, be it gentle or authoritarian. Yet in spite of these contradictions and outright impossibilities, planners operate within, contribute to, resist or temper an increasingly neoliberal mode of producing spaces and places, or the revival of profit-driven changes in land use. It is this contradiction between the serving of private profit-seeking interests while actually seeking the public betterment of cities that this volume has sought to describe, explore, analyze and make sense of through a set of case studies covering a wide range of planning issues in various countries. This book lays bare just how spatial planning functions in an age of market triumphalism, how planners respond to the overruling profit principle in land allocation and what is left of non-profit driven developments.
