« Te vir laudabilis illum defensore necnon et vos honerati que curas puplicas agitis adsidue… Regards sur la vitalité civique des cités post-romaines…
2021
While the classical civic organization is said to have disappeared in the West after 500, defensores, honorati, curies and curiales are still attested in Frankish Gaul until the 9th century, which has been discussed for a long time. A re-examination of the available evidence infers the existence of curies in some twenty Gallic cities at least. According to the historiography, they didn’t govern cities anymore, but were the local partners of the count and the bishop. However, at their lower level, and probably with much diversity from one city to another, they had their own functions and real autonomy. They remained places of power, expression and distinction for local aristocracy and were i…
Local Interactions and the Global City Metropolization in Warsaw
2002
A number of the world's large cities are taking on increasing economic importance in the international arenas because they concentrate high-order activities This metropolization process is a result of the changes occurring in the emerging post-industrial economy, i.e. the rise of services and information. It is based on the combination of proximity interactions and global interactions and it is characterized both by a specific internal spatial pattern and by a large outside area of influence. Since the transition period, services, and particularly high-order services, have grown more rapidly in Poland than in EU countries, as if a catching-up process has been underway. A large part of these…
Services supérieurs et recomposition urbaine
2000
Since the 1980s, we have observed an increasing tendency o f specialized services like producer services to leave their « natural habitat » in the center o f large met ropolitan areas in order to re loc at e in suburban zones. This phenomenon is particularly apparen t in North American citi es and seems to be occurring around certain French cities too. This paperinvestigates the forms taken by this new trend, and the reasons behind it. Taking economic geography and economics of cities as our theoretical basis, we first describe the main forces deter mining the agglomeration o f producer services and their preference for certain big cities. Agglomeration factors are to be looked for not only…
Megacities without Global Functions.
2007
Present urban evolution is characterized by two major phenomena. On the one hand, the number of very large cities, the megacities, increases dramatically, especially in the less developed countries (LDCs). On the other hand, globalization leads to the emergence of cities coordinating complex and global economic activities, the global cities, especially in the more developed countries (MDCs). So, the two phenomena are diverging. A number of megacities do not exhibit any global function.The global performances of megacities are well correlated with their degree of economic development. But it is worth wondering why economic underdevelopment is consistent with urban growth but not with city gl…

Effects of phorbol 12,13-diacetate on human isolated bronchus
2000
Protein kinase C appears to be involved in the regulation of airway contractility. Phorbol 12,13-diacetate (PDA; 0.01-10 microM), a protein kinase C activator, produced a transient relaxation followed by a sustained contraction of human isolated bronchus. Different protein kinase C inhibitors (calphostin C, staurosporine and 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine) (H-7), nifedipine (NIF; 1 microM) or incubation with Ca(2+)-free medium, inhibited the spasmogenic response to phorbol, while ouabain (10 microM) suppressed only the initial relaxation. These results indicate that the initial relaxation, in response to PDA, is related to the activation of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase, while the ensuin…

TABLE 3. QUESTIONS DE DURABILITÉ CULTURELLE ET ENVIRONNEMENTALE
2016
Il contributo gli esiti di un forum dei soggetti territoriali, sottolineando come il tema della partecipazione sia un prerequisito per la sostenibilità delle scelte progettuali. L'article porte sur les résultats d'un forum régional du sujet et met l'accent sur la participation comme une exigence pour la durabilité des choix de conception. Le Forum, organisé dans le cadre du programme DO.RE.MI.HE., a représenté l’une des rares occasions de voir plusieurs organismes territoriaux et associations, qui travaillent à divers niveaux sur le territoire, réunis autour d’une même table en vue d’imaginer un futur pour la ville et le territoire au départ du site UNESCO.
Comportements d'acteurs et dynamiques territoriales
1997
National audience; Notre projet est de concevoir un outil d'aide à la décision en matière d'aménagement urbain, s'appliquant aux stratégies de localisation des entreprises commerciales. Il est basé sur la modélisation des interactions entre des acteurs (décideurs, groupes d'agents socio-économiques) et leur territoire. Deux idées fortes sous-tendent ce projet. La première est que l'espace représente un type d 'acteur particulier, qui agit sur le comportement des agents socio-économiques et qui, en retour, est modifié par eux. La seconde consiste à intégrer le raisonnement des équipes municipales (qui sont les décideurs en matière d'aménagement urbain) dans le modèle, afin d'obtenir un outil…
La dilution: note méthodologique pour l'analyse de l'étalement urbain
2004
La dilution se caracterise par une diminution de la densite du bâti en fonction de la distance au centre d’une ville. Le modele logistique semble une bonne synthese de ce continuum. Il presente un interet si l’on calcule la difference entre deux periodes. On met ainsi en evidence des logiques specifiques de croissance des agglomerations. Le modele dynamique permet de projeter les tendances d’ici 2010, 2020 ou 2030. Parallelement, on envisage par difference les logiques de dilution, ce qui nous permet de conclure a une extension previsible de l’aire de dilution et a un eloignement du point d’echauffement.
