Slow Onset

Coastal areas have been growing massively worldwide. The fast growth also affects the land value in either a positive or a negative way. Many scholars have studied land value and the factors that affect it in areas prone to sudden-onset disasters. In contrast, studies on urbanized coastal areas that suffer from slow-onset disasters are still lacking. Using a case study from Semarang City in Indonesia, this research aims at ameliorating this limitation. To comprehensively understand the aim, two research questions are addressed: (1) What is the distribution of land value in urbanized coastal areas? (2) How do the different distribution factors determine the land value? Based on in-depth interviews with key persons, map analyses, and desk studies, this research discovers that land value is distributed randomly among coastal areas. The dynamics of land value are determined by road access, distance, and accessibility to the city center and CBD, public facilities, transportation facilities, population composition, physical environment, and disasters. Surprisingly, the coastal areas in Semarang that experience combined disasters showed that disasters could not decrease the land value; the value in some areas is constant or even increasing. This shows the different impacts of disasters on land value for slow-onset disasters and sudden-onset disasters.

Abstract: Changing the orientation of land demand from the city center towards the suburbs can alter the physical pattern of spatial and economic pattern in that location. The nominal value of the land within the suburbs is not the same, depending on the quality and quantity of space available, this makes the market different and in the end make the spatial distribution of land values and patterns in every corner of the city. The study was conducted in the city of Madiun where the area is physically not too wide and allows the development of the city. This study aims to describe the structure of land values in the city of Madiun in the form of contours as well as to analyze/explain the pattern of land values from the perspective of spatial economy. The analysis is done by looking at each disparity/ difference between the value of land between objects/samples depicted in the contour line of land values. The value of the various soil contours shows the pattern of soil value which is further examined and studied according to spatial theory. The analysis of the land value pattern from the perspective of spatial economy is done with the spatial economic variables that exist around it, such as public facilities, economic center, land use, quality and road network and so forth. In this case a superimpose / overlap between the land value pattern map (in contour form) with maps of public facilities, road access maps, land use maps, and so on. Spatial pattern of land value in Madiun City tends to spread and in each pattern is not interrelated. There are strong indications that land value patterns in Madiun City are spatial economically influenced by several things, such as accessibility, facilities / services, and economic centers. Intisari: Perubahan orientasi permintaan tanah dari tengah kota menuju ke arah pinggiran kota dapat merubah pola fisik keruangan dan pola ekonomi di lokasi tersebut. Nilai nominal lahan di dalam maupun pinggiran kota tidak sama, tergantung kualitas dan kuantitas ruang yang tersedia, hal ini menjadikan pasarnya pun berbeda-beda dan pada akhirnya menjadikan sebaran maupun pola nilai tanah yang secara spasial berbeda pada setiap sudut wilayah kota. Penelitian dilakukan di Kota Madiun dimana wilayahnya secara fisik tidak terlalu luas dan memungkinkan terjadi perkembangan kota. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menggambarkan struktur nilai tanah di Kota Madiun dalam bentuk kontur serta untuk menganalisis/menjelaskan pola nilai tanah dari perspektif ekonomi keruangan. Analisis dilakukan dengan cara mencermati setiap disparitas/selisih nilai tanah antar obyek/sampel yang digambarkan dalam garis kontur nilai tanah. Nilai kontur tanah yang beragam menunjukkan pola nilai tanah yang selanjutnya dicermati dan dikaji sesuai teori keruangan. Analisis mengenai pola nilai tanah dari perspektif ekonomi keruangan dilakukan dengan variabel ekonomi keruangan yang ada di sekitarnya, seperti fasilitas publik, pusat perekonomian, penggunaan tanah, kualitas dan jaringan jalan dan lain sebagainya. Dalam hal ini dilakukan superimpose/tumpang susun antara peta pola nilai tanah (dalam bentuk kontur) dengan peta fasilitas publik, peta akses jalan, peta penggunaan lahan, dan lain-lain. Secara keruangan pola nilai tanah di Kota Madiun cenderung menyebar dan pada setiap pola tersebut tidak saling berhubungan. Terdapat indikasi yang kuat bahwa pola nilai tanah di Kota Madiun secara ekonomi keruangan dipengaruhi oleh beberapa hal, seperti aksesibilitas, fasilitas/layanan, serta pusat-pusat perekonomian.

Despite the efforts devoted to open government, transparency is mainly considered an issue for public organizations. However, various tasks such as public services delivery and management are being increasingly privatized or outsourced to public-private partnerships (PPPs). Our study aims to contribute towards bridging this gap by answering two research questions: (1) What determines internal and external transparency in PPPs? and (2) To what extent does internal transparency contribute to external transparency? We answer these questions through a qualitative case study, consisting of 38 in-depth interviews, on the transparency in water provision and management in the city of Barcelona. We conclude that in the case of PPPs, even when the service provided is excellent, transparency goes beyond making data available; thus, politicians and managers must build a narrative around the data they provide that guides citizens and partners in their interpretation of the information. Furthermore, our results show that internal transparency influences external transparency.

People in Jambi city assume that Pasar Hong Kong, a traditional market located in Jelutung sub-district, is “a Chinese market”, even some areas in the city of Jambi such as Jelutung, Koni, and Talang Banjar are dominated by the ethnic of Chinese. This research aims to explore how social inequality that occurs due to the advantages and disadvantages of an ethnic group so that it can affect individual attitudes that damage social capital. This research uses a case study approach with in-depth interviews and literature study as data collection techniques. The subjects of this study were ethnic Malay and Chinese female merchants in Pasar Hong Kong, Jambi city, Indonesia. This research found that social inequalities that occur among the female merchants of ethnic Malay and Chinese in Pasar Hongkong occur naturally, where both merchants and buyers have a high tolerance when interacting. Although sometimes there are differences in attitude when the merchants serve different ethnic buyers. The involvement of traditional leaders in managing social inequalities is very important due to the lack of assimilation among ethnic Malay and Chinese.

This article identifies and compares the housing preferences of seniors and pre-senior citizens in Poland. In addition, the attitude of residents of large cities in the Wielkopolskie Voivodeship towards senior citizens’ housing was determined. Surveys were conducted in the two largest cities of this region. The influence of the potential behaviors of this group of society on the development of housing was also examined. Results showed that differentiation of housing preferences was visible primarily when choosing the type of development and size of the dwelling. Seniors preferred smaller units in multi-family housing construction. Pre-senior citizens, on the other hand, were more likely to think about living in a single-family house. The location of a new dwelling was also important. Seniors, more often than people aged 50–59, chose a location in the city center. Pre-senior citizens, in contrast, more often decided to live in a rural area or outside the city center. Moreover, the attitude of seniors towards senior citizens’ housing is undecided, which may indicate that many people may change their housing preferences in the future and decide to move.

Green areas or parks are the best way to encourage people to take part in physical exercise. Traditional techniques of researching the attractiveness of green parks, such as surveys and questionnaires, are naturally time consuming and expensive, with less transferable outcomes and only site-specific findings. This research provides a factfinding study by means of location-based social network (LBSN) data to gather spatial and temporal patterns of green park visits in the city center of Shanghai, China. During the period from July 2014 to June 2017, we examined the spatiotemporal behavior of visitors in 71 green parks in Shanghai. We conducted an empirical investigation through kernel density estimation (KDE) and relative difference methods on the effects of green spaces on public behavior in Shanghai, and our main categories of findings are as follows: (i) check-in distribution of visitors in different green spaces, (ii) users’ transition based on the hours of a day, (iii) famous parks in the study area based upon the number of check-ins, and (iv) gender difference among green park visitors. Furthermore, the purpose of obtaining these outcomes can be utilized in urban planning of a smart city for green environment according to the preferences of visitors.

This article proposes a methodology to address the urban evolutionary process, demonstrating how it is reflected in literature. It focuses on “literary space,” presented as a territory defined by the period setting or as evoked by the characters, which can be georeferenced and drawn on a map. It identifies the different locations of literary space in relation to urban development and the economic, political, and social context of the city. We suggest a new approach for mapping a relatively comprehensive body of literature by combining literary criticism, urban history, and geographic information systems (GIS). The home-range concept, used in animal ecology, has been adapted to reveal the size and location of literary space. This interdisciplinary methodology is applied in a case study to nineteenth- and twentieth-century novels involving the city of Lisbon. The developing concepts of cumulative literary space and common literary space introduce size calculations in addition to location and structure, previously developed by other researchers. Sequential and overlapping analyses of literary space throughout time have the advantage of presenting comparable and repeatable results for other researchers using a different body of literary works or studying another city. Results show how city changes shaped perceptions of the urban space as it was lived and experienced. A small core area, correspondent to a part of the city center, persists as literary space in all the novels analyzed. Furthermore, the literary space does not match the urban evolution. There is a time lag for embedding new urbanized areas in the imagined literary scenario.

ABSTRAKSuasana kota umumnya tercipta dari karakteristik fisik berbagai tata ruang kota dan interaksi sosial di dalamnya. Komponen visual yang dirasakan memberikan beragam sensasi yang mengarahkan individu menangkap kualitas dari situasi secara emosional yang mampu mempengaruhi mood atau suasana hati mereka. Di saat interaksi sosial terjadi, ekspresi tersenyum duchenne dapat terjadi ketika individu merasakan emosi-emosi positif. Namun, suasana kota dapat berubah di saat ada pembangunan ulang fasilitas publik. Hal tersebut dapat mempengaruhi bentuk tata ruang kota dan potensi interaksi sosial yang dapat mempengaruhi suasana hati individu. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat seberapa banyak ekspresi senyum duchenne yang ada pada area kota yang ramai di pusat kota Kendari dan Jakarta Selatan. Penulis memilih pusat kota Kendari dan Jakarta Selatan karena memiliki fasilitas publik yang baik. Adapun kota Kendari saat ini membangun ulang beberapa pusat kotanya sejak tahun 2019. Hasil penelitian memperlihatkan, kedua area kota memiliki jumlah frekuensi senyuman duchenne yang sama banyaknya di area suasana jenis consumerism dan peaceful and quiet. Namun, ada perbedaan jumlah di area suasana jenis vibrant dan historic, karena beberapa fasilitas di kota tua dan pusat kota Kendari saat observasi berada di tahap pembangunan ulang. Suasana kota merupakan hal yang penting untuk image kota karena memberikan pengalaman emosi positif bagi orang yang singgah atau berinteraksi sosial di lingkungan perkotaan.Katakunci: duchenne, suasana kota, vibrant, peaceful and quiet, consumerism, historic ABSTRACTThe atmosphere of the city created from pshysical characteristics of various urban spatial plans and social interaction in it. The perceived visual component provided sensations that directs individual to capture quality of situation emotionally which can affect their mood. When social interaction occurs, duchenne smile expressions can appear when individual feel positive emotion. However, city atmosphere can change when there is unfinished redevelopment of public facilities. This can affect the form of urban spatial and potential social interactions that can affect individual moods. This study aims to see how much duchenne smile expressions appear in downtown area in Kenadi and South Jakarta. The author chose city center of Kendari and Jakarta because they have good public facilites. The city of Kendari is currently rebuilding several of its facilities in city centers since 2019. Result show that both city areas had same number of duchenne smiles in areas of consumerism and peaceful & quiet type. However, there are differences in the number of vibrant and historic areas, its perhaps because some of the facilities in the old town and downtown Kendari at the time of observatio were in the reconstruction stage. City atmosphere is important for the image of the city becauses it provides positive emotional experiences for people who stop by or interact socially in urban environment.Keyword: duchenne, city atmosphere, vibrant, peaceful and quiet, consumerism, historic

Abstract. Previous research has examined global cities networks by means of the sister city cooperations and the factors which influence its implementation. However, there is no research which examines the extent to which these factors influence the success of sister city cooperation. Therefore, investigating the success factors of the sister city cooperation that contribute to city management is carried out. The case study approach is used by applying in-depth interviews to key informants for subsequent coding and content analysis. We found that the reciprocal relations accurring between the two cities are main factors which spur the sister city cooperation so that it led to the improvement of human resources, helped reduce problems in managing the city environment, and triggered increased market opportunities and global competitiveness. This condition is also supported by consistent local leadership. Meanwhile, shared interests and community participation are needed as a prerequisite for a development process and cooperation relationships that do not directly affect the success of the cooperation. Abstrak. Penelitian sebelumnya telah banyak memeriksa jejaring kota – kota di dunia melalui kemitraan sister city dan faktor – faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap pelaksanaannya. Namun, belum ada penelitian menyeluruh yang memeriksa sejauh mana faktor – faktor tersebut berpengaruh terhadap kemitraan sister city. Untuk itu, investigasi terhadap faktor - faktor kesuksesan kemitraan sister city yang dapat berkontribusi terhadap pengelolaan kota dilakukan. Pendekatan studi kasus digunakan dengan menerapkan wawancara mendalam terhadap informan kunci untuk selanjutnya dilakukan proses pengkodean dan analisis isi. Kami menemukan bahwa hubungan timbal balik yang terjadi antara kedua kota menjadi faktor utama yang memicu kemitraan sister city sehingga mengarah pada peningkatan sumber daya manusia, membantu mengurangi masalah pengelolaan lingkungan kota, serta memicu peningkatan peluang pasar dan daya saing global. Kondisi tersebut ditunjang juga oleh kepemimpinan lokal yang konsisten. Sementara itu, kepentingan bersama dan partisipasi masyarakat dibutuhkan sebagai prasyarat dari suatu proses pembangunan dan hubungan kemitraan yang tidak berpengaruh langsung terhadap kesuksesan kemitraan.

AbstractThis paper investigates the impact of street pattern, metro stations, and density of urban functions on pedestrian distribution in Tianjin, China. Thirteen neighborhoods are selected from the city center and suburbs. Pedestrian and vehicle volumes are observed through detailed gate count from 703 street segments in these neighborhoods. Regression models are constructed to analyze the impact of the street pattern, points of interest (POIs), and vehicle and metro accessibility on pedestrian volumes in each neighborhood and across the city. The results show that when analyzing all neighborhoods together, local street connectivity and POIs had a strong influence on pedestrian distribution. Proximity to metro stations and vehicle accessibility had a minor impact. When analyzing each neighborhood separately, both local- and city-scale street patterns affect pedestrian distributions. These findings suggest that the street pattern provides a base layer for metro stations to attract both the emergence of active urban functions and pedestrian movement.
