Modernising Civil Liability Law in Europe, China, Brazil and Russia

Modernising Civil Liability Law in Europe, China, Brazil and Russia

Gert Brüggemeier

Cambridge University Press
2011
sidottu
Non-contractual liability, stemming from damage accountably caused to another, has been the subject of the PETL and DCFR VI European reform initiatives. Gert Brüggemeier, however, proposes alternative reforms which, instead of trying to overcome the differences between civil law (delict) and common law (torts), are restricted to civil liability. The focus is on the grounds of accountability, and stricter forms of liability are at the fore. Quasi-strict enterprise liability is introduced to fill the lacuna between personal fault and forms of strict liability. A commentary is included on recent legislation on civil liability in China, Brazil and Russia to demonstrate how these large countries try to come to grips with the challenges of 'risk society'.

Complexity and Planning

Complexity and Planning

Gert de Roo; Jean Hillier

Routledge
2017
nidottu
Complexity, complex systems and complexity theories are becoming increasingly important within a variety disciplines. While these issues are less well known within the discipline of spatial planning, there has been a recent growing awareness and interest. As planners grapple with how to consider the vagaries of the real world when putting together proposals for future development, they question how complexity, complex systems and complexity theories might prove useful with regard to spatial planning and the physical environment. This book provides a readable overview, presenting and relating a range of understandings and characteristics of complexity and complex systems as they are relevant to planning. It recognizes multiple, relational approaches of dynamic complexity which enhance understandings of, and facilitate working with, contingencies of place, time and the various participants' behaviours. In doing so, it should contribute to a better understanding of processes with regard to our physical and social worlds.

Environmental Planning in the Netherlands: Too Good to be True

Environmental Planning in the Netherlands: Too Good to be True

Gert de Roo

Routledge
2016
nidottu
The Netherlands is one of the most prominent and innovative countries in the field of environmental planning. Over the past decade, its government has introduced such ground-breaking schemes as Integrated Environmental Zoning, the City-Environment Project, the Bubble Concept and Policy Concepts and new approaches to coping with noise, odours, soil pollution, air pollution and safety issues. These initiatives and policy tools reflect a rapidly changing and decentralising environmental policy, which contrasts with more conventional environmental ideologies. However, at present little is known of these policies in the international arena. De Roo shows how and why, in recent years, the country's planning system has moved away from its traditional 'top-down' structure. The resulting changes have had far-reaching consequences for the traditional principles of Dutch environmental policy. In addition, measures for compensating excessive environmental loads are now open to discussion and environmental quality is a subject of negotiation among stakeholders. All these developments mean that environmental policy-making has become more closely integrated with local initiatives that focus on general location-specific qualities. In this book, this development is referred to as 'tailor-made comprehensive planning', which relates closely to the local context, is area-specific, situation-dependent, and embraces shared governance.

Integrating City Planning and Environmental Improvement

Integrating City Planning and Environmental Improvement

Gert de Roo

Routledge
2016
nidottu
Since Integrating City Planning and Environmental Improvement was originally published in 1999, the practice of integrating urban physical planning and environmental quality management has been widely adopted by governments worldwide. Fully revised and updated with a new preface by editors Donald Miller and Gert de Roo and new figures throughout, this second edition reports on the experience of 23 innovative programmes from 11 countries. Mostly written by practicing planners and government officials, the book looks at a wide range of integrated approaches which have been implemented and the critical assessment of these provides lessons for local and national governments interested in setting up similar schemes and suggesting ways of further innovation. While the Rio Earth summit, Habitat II and Kyoto have been a source of global principles for improving the environmental quality of human settlements, this book explores approaches to implement these policy positions and to make these calls for action operational. Consequently, the presentation of these cases deals not only with the technical aspects of measuring and controlling environmental spillovers, but also with the institutional, political and financial aspects of these programmes.

Smart Methods for Environmental Externalities

Smart Methods for Environmental Externalities

Gert de Roo; Jelger Visser

Routledge
2016
nidottu
In recent years, Dutch environmental policy has undergone some pivotal changes, the most significant of which have been decentralization and deregulation, encouraging local communities to develop and deliver policies which are tailor-made to their particular situation. These changes have led to the development of some innovative practical instruments for aiding sustainable environmental spatial policy. This book discusses these new 'methods for environmental externalities' and their significance in the development and delivery of Dutch environmental policies, particularly how they ensure that issues such as health and hygiene are introduced in the early stages of spatial planning processes. This book highlights the most prominent and relevant of these innovative 'methods for environmental externalities' as well as comparing them with some of the classic methods, and analysing strengths and weaknesses. It argues that having such a broad and varied choice of methods is the key to ensuring the impressive and groundbreaking Dutch creativity in environmental management. In conclusion, the book extrapolates current trends in environmental policy, expresses likely and possible developments in 'methods for environmental externalities' and shows how such methods can contribute in our ongoing attempts to develop and deliver liveable, pleasant and sustainable towns and cities.

A Planner's Encounter with Complexity

A Planner's Encounter with Complexity

Gert de Roo; Elisabete A. Silva

Routledge
2016
nidottu
Spatial planning is about dealing with our 'everyday' environment. In A Planner's Encounter with Complexity we present various understandings of complexity and how the environment is considered accordingly. One of these considerations is the environment as subject to processes of continuous change, being either progressive or destructive, evolving non-linearly and alternating between stable and dynamic periods. If the environment that is subject to change is adaptive, self-organizing, robust and flexible in relation to this change, a process of evolution and co-evolution can be expected. This understanding of an evolving environment is not mainstream to every planner. However, in A Planner's Encounter with Complexity, we argue that environments confronted with discontinuous, non-linear evolving processes might be more real than the idea that an environment is simply a planner's creation. Above all, we argue that recognizing the 'complexity' of our environment offers an entirely new perspective on our world and our environment, on planning theory and practice, and on the raison d'être of the planners that we are. A Planner's Encounter with Complexity is organized into 17 chapters. It begins with the interplay of planning and complexity from the perspective of contemporary planning theory. It continues by critically assessing planning theory and practice in the light of the interdisciplinary debate regarding complexity thinking. As the book progresses, it positions itself ever closer to the perspective of complexity thinking, looking at the planning discipline 'from the outside in', clarifying the facets of complexity and its importance in planning. Finally, conceptual and theoretical developments towards more applied examples are identified in order to see the interplay of planning and complexity in practice. This book emphasizes the importance of complexity in planning, clarifies many of the concepts and theories, presents examples on planning and complexity, and proposes new ideas and methods for planning.

Fuzzy Planning

Fuzzy Planning

Gert de Roo; Geoff Porter

Routledge
2017
nidottu
Many of the key notions associated with spatial planning are essentially ’fuzzy’ in their nature. For example, while almost everyone accepts ’sustainability’ as an important goal of planning, the actions of the actors involved can render the achieved ’sustainability’ minimal, or even counterproductive. Putting forward an innovative way of looking at planning problems and policies, this volume suggests actor-consulting is important in addressing the fuzzy nature of planning. A tool to address differences in understanding, actor-consulting is based on an analysis of actor motives, perceptions and contributions. By inviting all actors to express their desired, actual and potential contributions to achieving an agreed outcome to a local policy issue, decision-makers have a means to develop their goals in line with the roles, motivation, perception and behaviour of the various actors involved. Including contributions from Patsy Healy, Johan Woltjer, Don Miller and Karel Martens, the book presents a variety of case studies which demonstrate the use of the actor-consulting model in addressing planning issues.

The Rediscovery of Teaching

The Rediscovery of Teaching

Gert Biesta

Routledge
2017
sidottu
The Rediscovery of Teaching presents the innovative claim that teaching does not necessarily have to be perceived as an act of control but can be understood and configured as a way of activating possibilities for students to exist as subjects. By framing teaching as an act of dissensus, that is, as an interruption of egological ways of being, this book positions teaching at the progressive end of the educational spectrum, where it can be reconnected with the emancipatory ambitions of education. In conversation with the works of Emmanuel Levinas, Paulo Freire, Jacques Rancière, and other theorists, Gert Biesta shows how students’ existence as subjects hinges on the creation of existential possibilities, through which students can assert their "grown-up" place in the world. Written for researchers and students in the areas of philosophy of education, educational theory, curriculum theory, teaching, and teacher education, The Rediscovery of Teaching demonstrates the important role of teachers and teaching in the project of education as emancipation towards grown-up ways of being in the world.

In 1990 verscheen Boerentijger, de debuutbundel van Tonnus Oosterhoff. Een belangrijk dichter liet voor het eerst van zich horen in een bundel die zijn geheimen niet meteen prijsgaf. Het vormde het begin van een indrukwekkend oeuvre dat dertig jaar later op Facebook uitgebreid bediscussieerd werd. In Abakadabra geeft Gert de Jager zijn visie op de bundel: Boerentijger vertelt het verhaal van een 'ik' die de beklemmingen van het opgroeien en het volwassen worden te boven komt. De ontwikkeling in de bundel lijkt op die in de debuutbundel van Lucebert, een dichter die in Oosterhoffs oeuvre vaak opduikt: ook daarin vormt zich een ego dat een uitweg vindt in de kunst en het schrijven. Oosterhoffs 'ik' realiseert zich dat wat er op papier komt uiteindelijk niet veel meer is dan een reductie van de werkelijkheid. Wat kan kunst dan nog? Wat is trouwens een boerentijger?

Na jarenlange studie van zowel de Edda als de vele oude en moderne bronnen met betrekking tot de Runen heeft schrijver Gert Postma (Gungnir) een eigen handzame handleiding gemaakt voor het maken en gebruiken van Runen. Natuurlijk wordt niet voorbij gegaan aan Asatru, het oude Germaanse geloof, waar de Runen uit voortgekomen zijn. Alle Runen worden individueel toegelicht. Er zijn diverse versies, we hebben het hier over de Germaanse Runen zoals die ook in onze streken gebruikt werden. Naast een gedegen bespreking van de individuele Runen, en versterkende factoren als kleuren, stenen, krachtplekken, enz. gaat deze bundel in op het trekken van een Dagrune of een Orakelrune, het doen van volledige leggingen, en het gebruik van Runen als (gezondheids)amulet, en het gebruik van Runen als gebed. Kortom, alle informatie die u nodig heeft om direct aan de slag te kunnen met de Runen in een bundel verenigd.

Gert de Jager (1957) debuteerde in 2009 met de bundel Sterk zeil die werd genomineerd voor de C. Buddingh'-prijs. Sindsdien publiceerde hij verscheidene dichtbundels en literair-kritische essays. Over zijn vorige dichtbundel Naakt en bewogen schreef Frans August Brocatus in De Boekhouding: 'De Jager vertelt, neemt je mee op reis. Hij doet dat bezwerend, filosoferend, mediterend. Hij verdiept en dwingt je stil te staan. Hij zet je aan het denken en tegelijkertijd aan het voelen.' In O, lichtkelk is de dichter zich meer dan ooit bewust van de eindigheid der dingen. Lezen en schrijven vergezelden hem in het bestaan, gaven er zelfs vorm aan. Wat leverden die mooie activiteiten hem op? In gedichten waarin weemoed, verbetenheid en nog wat andere emoties te vinden zijn, beantwoordt De Jager fundamentele vragen.
