The City

«Bezymyanka» is the name of the largest industrial district of the city of Kuibyshev, now Samara. The expressive name can also be interpreted as a metaphor for many industrial cities of the Soviet era. In the XXI century various projects for the transformation of industrial cities are known. The cultural capital of Europe in 2007 was the oldest mining city in Germany, Essen, together with nearby industrial ancient mining towns in the Ruhr River Valley. The project was won by solving environmental problems and creative reformatting of the industrial city. It should be noted that the problems of Soviet industrial cities are presented in numerous Russian and foreign studies. So, the article refers to modern works on the search for justified transformations of «Soviet Magnitka»; Uralmash in Ekaterinburg and other problematic industrial cities. The purpose of this article is to draw attention to various interpretations of such cities. In Samara, there is also «bifurcation»: the old city and industrial Bezymyanka. To expose the sociocultural contradiction between the «old» and the «industrial city», the article reveals discrepancies that inhibit development. The author draws attention to the unique and overtaken by its time Grushinsky festival, in particular, its leaders. Conclusion: the lack of the balance of «old», «Soviet» and «post-Soviet» territories inside of one city is a problem of lack of personalities.

The relevance of research. In 2007, the industrial city of Essen, Germany, and the accompanying "ring" of mining towns in the Ruhr Valley, quite unexpectedly became the European Capital of Culture. Essen did not lose in a number of such senior cities as Athens and Florence, world centers like Paris, Amsterdam, Brussels. On the contrary, the project of an industrial city has generated creative interest. The aim of the project was to solve such problems of industrial cities as the ecology of an industrial city, monuments of factory culture. The core of the project was mining biographies and the memory of the profession. The article provides links to similar transformations of the "Soviet Magnitka" - Uralmash in Yekaterinburg and other industrial cities of Russia. The “case of Samara” is considered in most 62 Гуманитарные науки Humanitarian Sciences ________________________________________________________________________________________________ detail. The author's hypothesis is that there is a rift in Samara between the "old" and "industrial city". This is confirmed by the analysis of chronotopes of different parts of the city and the proposed hypothesis of urban archetypes. Research methodology. The article uses the analysis of biographies and the go-along method. The author's concept of the chronotopic fault of the city became the substantive basis of this article. The cultural projects that the industrial "Bezymyanka" gave birth to give a high assessment of their projectivity, which has outstripped its time. Among the "nameless cultural projects" there is a unique mathematical and aesthetic school, a competition for young musicians named after D. B. Kabalevsky, the Valery Grushin International Festival is the world's largest festival of art songs. The city needed creative projects and it deserves study and further development. Conclusion: the problem of different cultural territories within one city inevitably leads to the division of territories and the inhibition of the creative development of the city as a whole.

The fast urbanization in many regions of the world has generated a high competition between cities. In the race for investments and for international presence, some cities have increasingly resorting to the territorial marketing techniques like city branding. One of the strategies of recent years has been to use of creativity and / or labeling of creative city for the promotion of its destination. This phenomenon raises a question whether the city branding programs have worked in accordance with the cultural industries of the territory or if such labels influence the thought of tourists and locals. This paper begins by placing a consideration of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network (UCCN) and the strategies of the Territorial Marketing Program of the city of Lyon in France, Only Lyon. It also raises the question the perception of the target public to each of the current actions through semi-structured interviews which were applied between May and August 2015. Finally, I will try to open a discussion the brand positioning adopted by the city of Lyon

Holy Week is one of the most important traditions in many parts of the world and a complex expression of cultural heritage. The main goal of this article is to explore which factors determine participation in Holy Week celebrations in the city of Palencia (Spain), measured through the number of processions attended. For this purpose, an econometric count data model is used. Variables included in the model not only reflect participants' sociodemographic features but other factors reflecting cultural capital, accumulated experience, and social aspects of the event. A distinction is drawn between three types of participants: brotherhood members, local residents, and visitors, among whom a survey was conducted to collect the information required. A total of 248 surveys were carried out among brotherhood members, 209 among local residents, and 259 among visitors. The results confirm the religious and social nature of this event, especially in the case of local participants. However, in the case of visitors, participation also depends on aspects reflecting the celebration's cultural and tourist dimension—such as visiting other religious and cultural attractions—suggesting the existence of specific tourism linked to the event. All of this suggests the need to manage the event, ensuring a balance is struck between the various stakeholders' interests and developing a tourist strategy that prioritizes public-private cooperation.

AbstractThe rise of crack cocaine in the late 1980s propelled the war on drugs. The experience of Canton, Ohio, shows how the response to crack solidified mass incarceration. A declining industrial city of 84,000 people in northeast Ohio with deep-seated racial divides, it was overwhelmed by aggressive, enterprising crack dealers from outside the city. In response, politicians and residents united behind the strategy of incessant arrests and drastic prison sentences. The law-enforcement offensive worsened conditions while pursuing African Americans at blatantly disproportionate rates, but few people engaged in reframing the drug problem. Instead, a punitive citizenry positioned punishment as the principal remedy. The emergency foreclosed on more comprehensive assessments of the city’s tribulations, while the criminal justice system emerged as the paramount institution.

AbstractThe camp and the city are both important for understanding the relationship between space and identity in the refugee experience of exile. In the Palestinian example, the camp has emerged as a potent symbol in the narrative of exile although only a third of refugees registered with UNRWA live in camps. Moreover, the city and urban refugees remain missing in most of the scholarship on the Palestinian experience with space, exile, and identity. Furthermore, there is little attention to how refugees understand the concept of the city and camp in their daily life. This article examines how Palestinian urban refugees in the Old City of Damascus conceptualized the relationship between the camp and the city. It illustrates how the concept of the camp remained necessary for the construction of their collective national identity while in Syria. However, the city was essential in the articulation of individual desires and establishing social distinction from other refugees. Thus, during a protracted exile it is in the interstice between the city and the camp, where most urban refugees in the Old City situated themselves, that informed their national belonging and personal aspirations.

Residential Garden

A significant development in urban history was the emergence of the Garden City movement at the end of the nineteenth century, inspired by the writings and actions of Ebenezer Howard. The movement would generate a broad range of urban typologies and various visionary models of the city during the twentieth century. The Garden City was a direct response to what were perceived to be the evils of large industrial cities and attempted to reunite country and town, particularly through the residential garden and the act of gardening. Using Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari's assemblage theory I examine gardens and gardening, and the agencies inherent to these. By evoking the early history of the first Garden City at Letchworth, we can ask what role can gardens and gardeners play in addressing contemporary urban issues? [1].
