Urban Renewal and the Right to a Home in the Neoliberal Era
The article straddles the intersection of legislation, planning guidelines, and housing policy studies in the neoliberal era. Its objective is to examine the right to a home within urban renewal projects. It addresses the gap between residents’ experience of housing as “home” and private developers’ view of housing as strictly an investment. This raises the question: how do laws, planning guidelines, and scholarly studies reflect the meaning of h…
The profession’s response to overt and covert threats to the ruling hegemony
This study examines the relationship between three sociological concepts in an architectural context: profession, hegemony, and government, focusing on times of crisis. The crisis is caused by two types of perceived threat to the hegemonic social order: one is overt and recognized by the government, and the other is covert and not officially acknowledged. In both cases, the threat has the potential to overturn the power hierarchy and thus damage …
Crisis, Urban Fabrics, and the Public Interest
The relation between urbanization and pandemics is not new. In fact, the “reformative” urban plans of the late 19th and early 20th centuries sought the addition of green patches, reliable running water systems, good sanitation, and sunlight to fend off the common ailments of the industrial city. No wonder then that these urban planning elements are also compatible with the Covid-19 era, as ample green and low-density areas are supposed to ensure …
Professions in periods of social change
This article examines how professions behave in periods of social change. The article considers whether professions take positions vis-à-vis broader social discourse, and explores the relationship between the professions’ positions and those of the government. The article examines these questions through the case of the Israeli architectural profession’s behavior after the 1967 war in both the newly occupied territories, over which Israeli contro…
The Arab village
This article critically discusses the image and the imagining of the Arab village produced by two cultures, the national-Zionist from the 1930s onwards, and the national-Palestinian during the last decade. Unlike fellow theorists and researchers, we are reluctant to be satisfied with the claim that throughout history the Jews, establishing their identity vis-à-vis the rural and oriental ‘other’, perceived the Arab village in an inversely mirrored…
The evolution of the inner courtyard in Israel
Spatial and formal components constituted the basis of pre-World War II modernist architecture. However, at that time, the courtyard next to the house did not receive the same focused attention. The reawakening of attention directed towards the inner courtyard that came after World War II affected also the housing planning in Israel. The article analyzes the incorporation of an inner courtyard as part of Israeli institutional architecture in four…
Contested Homes
Professionals possess an authoritative and monopolistic position that rests on their exclusive knowledge and is reinforced by their normative ideology. However, in hegemonic processes professionals often serve also as “traditional intellectuals,” or agents who preserve the interests of those in power. This article focuses on a critical moment in which a threat is posed to both the professional status of architects and the established hegemonic or…
Between East and West
The architecture of an immigrant society is characterised by problems of identity. The lack of a long continuous connection between the builders and the land where the construction takes place severs the natural identity between the planning and construction tradition and the builders. Concepts such as ‘local planning and construction tradition’ or ‘adapting construction to the conditions and natural qualities of the land’ are not defined where i…
Of Village and City
This paper examines Israeli planning historically through the ideological prism of Zionism. Urban planning in Israel, studied over the years of statehood, is shown to reflect the ideological changes that have occurred in Israeli society since 1948, the year of the establishment of the state of Israel. The opening section examines the connections between urban planning and ideology, in general. This is followed by the explication of the symbolic i…
