| dc.description.abstract | This book presents the outcome of the European Urban Summer School 2010 which was quite a complex event. We wanted to include both scientific outcomes reflected in the academic papers of the tutors and practical understanding emerging from the solutions proposed by the young planners. The latter had been working on particular tasks conceived by the organisers and described in the book, together with the overall idea of the school. The main concept of the book is to intertwine papers and case studies with the editors’ comments which slide like a snake through the book. Printed on the blue pages they are introducing each part, explaining the background and synthesising the presented material. The book begins with a brief description of the concept and issues of EUSS2010, followed by two presentations: the place (the City of Wrocław) and the teams of young planners who participated in the European Urban Summer School. The main body of the book is divided into three parts. The first part discusses the problem of heritage and its relation to development, the second focuses on transformation processes of cities and tools of intervention, and the third explores new form of the city. The three parts relate respectively to the past, present and future. The tutors’ profiles are presented after the final summary and the book finishes with acknowledgements and the team working on the European Urban Summer School in Wrocław. At the very end we allowed ourselves to present some thoughts for the future. | en |
