Professor David Shaw is currently a member of staff at the University of Liverpool in the Department of Geography and Planning. He is primarily interest in the role, scope and potential of statutory planning processes in transforming places and hopefully
making them better for residents, visitors and the environment more generally. Planning is a process which gains it’s legitimacy from the state and hence is inherently political and reflects the views values and priorities of the state, which are inevitably dynamic. David Shaw has been at the University of Liverpool since 1995 and from 2000-2010 he was head of the Department of Civic Design the oldest planning school in the world. He has previously worked in Malawi and since being at the University of Liverpool he has had academic and research links in China, Mexico, Egypt, Malaysia and many parts of Europe.
开展暑期课程:
Cultural regeneration as a tool for regenerating cities and regions in Europe, the Uk and the North West of England
课程介绍:
Within the Western World, particularly in Europe cities are seeking strategies and policies to re-invent themselves and as part of this process of regeneration/revitalization/transformation the value and importance of heritage as a driver for change has become increasingly prominent. In part this is a function of places wanting to respect and reflect their historic, social and cultural heritage as a criteria that may help to promote place distinctiveness, place diversity and provide a context both for a new economy based on patterns of consumption (ie from a leisure and tourism perspective) and also a place for new economy investment based on the perceived quality of the place. In this module we explore the way that planning as a process is helping to facilitate this transformation using the culture and heritage of places as a driver for change. The module explores the development of both strategy and implementation and indeed some of the challenges of integrating strong aspirations to protect and preserve cultural heritage with a need for new development. Whilst much of the case studies will focus on urban transformations, using primarily the North West of England and more particularly Liverpool as a case study, we will also explore the role that culture and heritage may play in driving growth within rural economies’
The focus of the module will be on the values that modern society attaches to culture and heritage and the significant role that planning processes and events can have in both protecting critical assets and shaping urban renewal. Our focus is largely on Europe with special reference to the UK.
