The 1984 municipal incorporation of West Hollywood, California offers an opportunity to explore two related themes: (1) the role of place in the creation of identity generally, and (2) the role of place in the creation of sexual identity in particular. Work on the second subject has largely concentrated on the political economy of gay territories, although there has been an ongoing concern with the symbolic importance of these places. Although these studies have provided valuable insights on these themes, they do not reflect the renewed concern in humanistic geography with the normative importance of place, and the study of morally valued ways of life. These latter topics provide alternative avenues into questions of identity. In the coverage of the incorporation campaign, the gay press presented an idealized image of the city. In defining a new gay identity, the gay press utilized the holistic quality of place to weave together the ‘natural’ and cultural elements of West Hollywood. This idealized ‘gay city’ united the place's real and imagined physical attributes with social and personal characteristics of gay men. More simply, the qualities of the city itself expressed intellectual and moral virtues, such that characterizations of the city became part of a narrative defining the meaning of ‘gay’. This new gay male identity included seven elements: creativity, aesthetic sensibility, an orientation toward entertainment or consumption, progressiveness, responsibility, maturity, and centrality. The effort to create an identity centered on West Hollywood was relatively conservative in the sense that it was not a fundamental challenge to existing social and political systems. Rather, it reflected a strategy based on an ethnicity model, seeking to ‘demarginalize’ gays and to bring them closer to the symbolic ‘center’ of US society.

The City of Copenhagen aims to become the first carbon neutral capital in the world by 2025. Ten per cent of the total CO2-reduction target is to be achieved through energy retrofitting of existing buildings in the city. This article reports from an action research study in the urban renewal section in Copenhagen City Council where planners struggle to promote more and better energy retrofitting projects in the urban renewal scheme. The study finds that planners in fact approach green retrofitting as a ‘wicked problem’ that requires new solution strategies targeting the complexity of developing new retrofitting standards and solutions in the existing urban renewal framework. The analysis shows how planners’ strategic responses are challenged by competing worldviews concerning the role of urban renewal and the problems and potentials of green retrofitting in practice.

This article discusses how Chinese cities are transforming in visually radical ways to reconfigure their historic memories. In the midst of ‘creative city campaigns’ sweeping over China, which emphasize the discovery and exploitation of the creative-historic-cultural elements of urban pasts, Chengdu, one of China’s ‘New First-tier Cities’, epitomizes the pivotal role that visual culture plays in facilitating urban change. Grounded in critical analysis of both indigenous urban-making strategies within China and Chinese cities’ borrowing of western visual practices, this article investigates how Chengdu, as an emerging metropolis in globalizing China, introduces trompe l’oeil-style photographic installations on the site of its famous Kuanzhai Alleys (Kuanzhai xiangzi) transformation project. Urban planners in Chengdu take advantage of trompe l’oeil (‘trick-the-eye’), a post-Renaissance Western artistic innovation, to blur the boundaries between memory and reality. By transforming a vernacular architectural heritage site in Chengdu into a modern interactive cultural Disneyland, urban planners create embodied interactivity on the current tourist site of the Kuanzhai Alleys. While tourists indulge in the enchanting pleasure of a bygone urban past revived through visual tricks on the site, the people of Chengdu criticize the transformed district for failing to represent the authentic memories of the city. By revealing how the Kuanzhai Alleys becomes a site of contested urban experiences, the article probes the role of artistic creations in mediating memory and reality, the past and the present in fast-changing Chinese cities.

School leadership has been identified as a key function to assuring quality in education. Principals’ leadership can have a direct effect on students’ learning by improving teaching, or an indirect effect by creating conditions that foster learning. This exploratory study aims to understand how school principals exercise their leadership and its relation with the learning climate of their schools. We analyzed two dimensions: principals’ agendas and school climate perception, using the questionnaire provided by the TALIS examination, in a sample of 82 principals from secondary schools in the City of Buenos Aires. Administrative and leadership tasks and meetings occupy first place in the agenda of the principals from our sample. However, principals devote almost half of their time to interactions with non-teacher members of the school community. This suggests the preponderance of an “ interactive leadership”, which appears as a response towards “turbulent school climates”. Nevertheless, it is precisely the instructional role of principals that can effectively improve learning conditions by operating on the academic dimension of school climate. This requires training policies and professional development opportunities that improve the instructional role of school leaders so that they can develop a more proactive leadership.

Abstract. Malnutrition is the most common problem in coastal areas among other areas in the city of Serang. The focus of this study is discussing the malnutrition of children under-fives in fishing families and their causes as well as the role of community assistant for families of fishermen who have children under-five with malnutrition status, where the majority of them are fishing laborers living in poverty. This research uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive type. Collecting data employs in-depth interviews, observation and documentation studies. The results of this research show that fishermen’s family income is low, their level of education and understanding of nutrition are low, so they are unable to meet their nutritional needs ideally. Cultural factors and local habits greatly affect their attitudes in meeting the needs of daily life, in terms of nutrition they believe that fish and eggs consumed by children under-five will adversely affect their health and skin. In addition there is still an understanding that fathers must be given the highest priority in any case, including in terms of eating compared to other family members. The findings show that they live in  dirty living environment with poor sanitation and inadequate clean water sources. Furthermore, this research study finds that the community assistants, including Social Worker, have not played their role adequately. The most striking obstacles faced are economic factors, accessibility and knowledge as well as lack of awareness from families in overcoming the problem of malnutrition in children under five in fishing families Abstrak. Masalah malnutrisi terbanyak terdapat di wilayah pesisir di antara wilayah lain di kota Serang. Fokus dari penelitian ini membahas tentang malnutrisi balita dalam keluarga nelayan dan penyebabnya serta peran pendamping bagi keluarga nelayan yang memiliki balita dengan status malnutrisi, di mana mayoritas mereka adalah buruh nelayan yang hidup dalam kemiskinan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan jenis deskriptif. Pengumpulan datanya menggunakan wawancara mendalam, observasi dan studi dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pendapatan keluarga nelayan rendah, tingkat pendidikan dan pemahaman akan gizi kurang sehingga mereka tidak mampu untuk memenuhi kebutuhan gizi secara ideal. Faktor budaya dan kebiasaan setempat sangat mempengaruhi sikap mereka dalam memenuhi kebutuhan hidup sehari hari, dalam hal gizi mereka berkeyakinan bahwa ikan dan telur apabila dikonsumsi oleh balita akan berdampak buruk pada kesehatan dan kulit mereka. Selain itu, masih ada pemahaman bahwa ayah harus diutamakan dalam hal apapun termasuk dalam hal makan dibandingkan anggota keluarga lainnya. Berdasarkan penelitian, terlihat lingkungan tempat tinggal mereka sangat kotor dengan sanitasi yang buruk serta sumber air bersih yang cukup sulit. Lebih jauh terungkap bahwa peran pendamping masyarakat, termasuk Pekerja Sosial, masih relatif belum cukup memadai. Hambatan yang dihadapi yang paling menonjol adalah faktor ekonomi, aksesibilitas dan pengetahuan gizi serta kurangnya kesadaran dari keluarga dalam mengatasi masalah malnutrisi pada anak balita dalam keluarga nelayan.

The ancient Romans famously distinguished between civic life in Rome and military matters outside the city—a division marked by the pomerium, an abstract religious and legal boundary that was central to the myth of the city's foundation. This book explores, by means of images and texts, how the Romans used social practices and public monuments to assert their capital's distinction from its growing empire, to delimit the proper realms of religion and law from those of war and conquest, and to establish and disseminate so many fundamental Roman institutions across three centuries of imperial rule. The book probes such topics as the appearance in the city of Romans in armor, whether in representation or in life, the role of religious rites on the battlefield, and the military image of Constantine on the arch built in his name. Throughout, the book reveals how, in these instances and others, the ancient ideology of crossing the pomerium reflects the efforts of Romans not only to live up to the ideals they had inherited, but also to reconceive their past and to validate contemporary practices during a time when Rome enjoyed growing dominance in the Mediterranean world. The book explores a problem faced by generations of Romans—how to leave and return to hallowed city ground in the course of building an empire.
