The Customary Law and the Traditional Leadership Power in Angola—Their Effects on Territorial Planning Issues
Angola’s cultural mosaic and ethnolinguistic diversity reflect the multilocational traditional customs and power, which are key to the country’s social organisation. A Soba, a traditional leader whose status is recognised by the Angolan Constitution, exerts political influence, shapes the collective life, and helps to preserve cultural identity. Customary law, entrenched after independence, became central to the political and administrative restr…
Participatory Budgeting and Placemaking
Participatory budgeting has arisen as an interesting form of citizen participation in urban development and, thus, as a new way of exercising placemaking and grassroots democracy. In this article, we provide an analysis of projects in Lisbon (Portugal), Valencia (Spain), and Warsaw (Poland) with a focus on three key projects concerned with improving the public realm and their contribution to enhancing the network of public open spaces. Our guidin…
The Role of Collaborative Ethnography in Placemaking
This article discusses collaborative ethnography as a meaningful source for spatial research, in particular, for participatory methodologies in urban planning and placemaking processes. It investigates the experiences with co-creation and co-research in different research projects to gain insight into the performance of collaborative ethnography as a technique to explore and enrich local knowledge. To better understand the possible causal relatio…
Smart City as Participatory Environment
A certain frenzy is still felt around the idea of what a Smart City is: for some, it is a concern, for others it is an open field of huge possibilities. Stemmed from the ubiquitousness of immersive computing in urban environments, and implemented by the coalescence between several media, a Smart City seems to promise aggregated efficiency among equipment, structures and individuals. On the flip side, a Smart City simultaneously appears to limit c…

Kleingärten um componente da infraestrutura urbana
O presente trabalho traz a conceituação dos chamados kleingärten, um sistema de jardins arrendados, presentes nas cidades alemãs, e enfoca o seu relevante caráter social, bem como o seu potencial na integração à infraestrutura de espaços verdes, como uma alternativa para melhorar a qualidade do ambiente urbano. Esses espaços, que poderíamos chamar de pulmões verdes, pertencem, na maioria dos casos, às prefeituras, que os arrendam a associações de…
