However, it is debated whether technology has truly led to large-scale democratization or if political change was already happening. The document also examines the increased use of social media by UCD student union representatives for political
Economic Development --- Chapter 6th "Classic readings in urban planning"Desy Rosnita Sari
The document summarizes Wilbur R. Thomson's 1965 work on "Economic Growth and Development; Processes, Stages, and Determinants". It discusses Thomson's analysis of the stages of urban growth in the United States including export specialization, diversification, and economic maturation. It also examines three case cities - Boston, Pittsburgh, and Detroit - and how they responded differently to economic challenges, leading to varying outcomes. Finally, it outlines Thomson's theory of the "urban size ratchet" and how growth enables further growth through political power and economies of scale.
This storyboard document outlines 26 scenes for a trailer of the film "Gemini". Each scene provides details on what will happen, the camera angles and movements, any special effects, and sounds. The scenes set up tensions between a daughter and her mother as the daughter claims to have an imaginary twin, while strange events occur like shadows on her door and her diary being burned. The trailer ends by rewinding the scenes and showing home movie clips of the daughter younger with her supposed twin in the background.
Networks Urbanism in spatial planning scale. Case study in Banda Aceh City - ...Desy Rosnita Sari
This document discusses spatial planning in Indonesia, focusing on Aceh province and Banda Aceh City. It provides background on Indonesia's national spatial planning system and patterns. It then describes Aceh province's spatial planning and identifies Banda Aceh City as the provincial capital. The document outlines Banda Aceh City's population, area, elevation, districts and role as the center of a "monocentric network" of spatial planning in Aceh province.
The document discusses the cement industry in Pakistan. It lists several key locations for cement production plants across Pakistan. It then discusses the importance of cement for construction and development in Pakistan. The main inputs for cement production are limestone, clay, shale, sand and iron ore. The production process involves mining these raw materials, grinding and heating them in a rotary kiln to form clinker, and then grinding the clinker with gypsum to produce cement. The industry faces issues with high energy consumption during grinding and ensuring optimal particle size for cement quality.
- John Forester argued that planners need to be aware of power dynamics and how information is used within the planning process. He outlined five perspectives on how planners can approach the use of information: technician, incremental pragmatist, liberal advocate, structuralist, and progressive. The progressive perspective calls for planners to fulfill their mandate for a democratic process and empower communities.
- Allan Jacobs reflected on his experiences as the planning director of San Francisco between 1967-1974. He emphasized the importance of qualified, dedicated planners and advocated for bottom-up, responsive planning that utilizes local resources and understands community needs.
- Norman Krumholz discussed how effective equity planning was accomplished in Cleveland between 1969-1979
The Produce Exchange Bulding in Liverpool - A unique piece of HistoryXimena Pérez

Environmental ethics is a complex issue with reasonable arguments on multiple sides. Some key considerations in this debate include:
1. Balancing human needs and environmental protection. Both are important but often in tension.
2. Considering intergenerational equity. Current decisions impact those not yet born who cannot represent their interests.
3. Determining what constitutes an "acceptable" level of risk is difficult with uncertainties in both science and values.
4. While humans have shaped nature for millennia, biodiversity loss now threatens Earth's life support systems on which humans depend.
Overall, most ethicists argue humans have some moral obligation to protect the natural environment, both for its own intrinsic value and to ensure long-term sustainability
The document summarizes key information about Pakistan's fertilizer industry, including:
- Major fertilizer factories are located in Punjab and Sindh provinces due to availability of natural gas, infrastructure, labor, and proximity to agricultural regions with high fertilizer demand.
- Nitrogen and mineral rocks are raw materials used to produce fertilizers through an ammonia synthesis process.
- Fertilizer use varies significantly across Pakistani provinces from 92kg/hectare in Sindh to 15kg/hectare in Balochistan.
The brick kiln industry is an important small-scale industry in Pakistan that provides employment in rural areas. It involves mixing clay and water, molding bricks, drying them in the sun, and firing them at high temperatures to harden them. However, it also causes significant environmental problems through air, water, and soil pollution from coal combustion and waste dumping. Deforestation also occurs to provide fuelwood. Solutions proposed include converting kilns to natural gas, installing effective emissions controls, using protective masks, and adopting cleaner coal technologies.
This document summarizes two articles from the journal of the American Institute of Planners. The first article by Sherry R. Arnstein discusses a "ladder of citizen participation" with rungs representing different levels of citizen power, from nonparticipation to citizen control. The second article by William W. Goldsmith examines the ghetto as a potential resource for black economic development, arguing that without leadership and political power, ghettos risk becoming internal colonies, but that community development and mobilizing economic and political power could help black communities.
Sugarcane is mainly grown in Sindh and Punjab provinces of Pakistan. Sugar mills must be located near sugarcane fields because sugarcane starts losing sugar content after harvesting and must be crushed immediately. It is also bulky and heavy to transport far. Byproducts of sugarcane processing include bagasse, which is used as fuel and to make paper, and molasses, which is used to make various chemicals.
This document summarizes a research paper that proposes a microcontroller-based system to monitor and protect electric distribution transformers. The system would detect faults like single line-ground faults, line-to-line faults, double line-ground faults, overvoltage, and undervoltage. It would send fault alerts via GSM network to a control station. A user interface using MATLAB would display the distribution system status. The aim is to minimize equipment damage from faults and improve power distribution monitoring and management. Key components include step-down transformers, a microcontroller, GSM module, and bridge rectifier.
The city of theory, planning in the face of conflict, contested cities social...Desy Rosnita Sari
The document summarizes three articles about the history and evolution of urban planning. It discusses how the planning paradigm has shifted over time from a focus on design to incorporating more community engagement, data analysis, and consideration of social and political factors. Planners now take on roles as mediators and negotiators to manage conflicts between competing stakeholder groups given the imbalance of power in planning processes. Cities are understood not just as physical forms but as ongoing processes shaped by social, economic and political dynamics over time and place. The messy and political nature of planning challenges the profession to maintain relevance across diverse fields of study and practice.
This document summarizes an exam question from a past paper on the iron and steel industry in Pakistan. The question asks the student to: 1) Identify raw materials and inputs shown in a diagram of inputs to Pakistan Steel; 2) Describe two human inputs to production; 3) Explain why over 50% of Pakistan Steel's output is sent north to Punjab; and 4) Identify features showing it is a formal sector industry. The question tests the student's understanding of the key raw materials, processes, outputs and location factors of Pakistan's iron and steel industry.
The document discusses the cotton textile industry of Pakistan. It outlines the key processes involved - from raw cotton being the main material, to carding, spinning, weaving and knitting to produce textile products. It notes the importance of the industry in providing employment, foreign exchange earnings and supporting other industries. However, it also discusses problems faced, including shortage of raw materials, market competition, outdated machinery, and environmental and health issues from overuse of pesticides. The largest cotton textile centers are Karachi and Faisalabad.
