O princípio da participação popular na elaboração do Plano Diretor: o resgate dos motivos pelos quais o homem busca viver em cidades Resumo: A cidade é uma construção antropológica que deve ser entendida como casa, lugar de convivência, de moradia, de segurança, de bem-estar e de qualidade de vida ao homem. Os motivos que levam o homem a viver em cidade são objeto de seu planejamento, preocupação atual, que clama por uma postura epistêmica. O princípio da participação popular resgata a origem das cidades, devolve o poder de decidir ao seu verdadeiro ‘dono’ – o povo – e faz do Plano Diretor um projeto de planejamento com espírito de cidadania. O projeto de cidade não pode ser, apenas, um projeto de governo; deve ter natureza cultural e popular e respeitar a diversidade, cujo governante precisa, tão somente, administrar sua construção, dar-lhe continuidade e manter a preservação. A gestão poderá modernizar e/ou construir cidades inteligentes, mas nunca deverá se afastar das bases, que deram origem às cidades, bem como do espírito de seus cidadãos. Palavras-chave: Cidade. Direito Urbanístico. Instrumento de efetividade. Plano Diretor. Princípio da participação popular. ______ Popular participation principle in the Managing Plan: the rescue of the motives why the man seeks to live in cities Abstract: The city is an anthropological construction which should be understood as a house, acquaintanceship place, dwelling, security, and welfare and life quality for the man. Motives that lead men and women to live in a city are object of their planning, present concern, which cries out for an epistemic posture. Popular involvement principle rescues the cities rise, it gives back the power of deciding his true ‘owner’ – the people – and it makes the Managing Plan a planning project with citizenship spirit. The city project should not be just a government project; it must have a cultural and popular nature and respecting diversity whose ruler must only manage its construction, continuity and preservation. Management can modernize and/or build smart cities, but it should never stand back from the foundations that they gave rise at the spirit of their cities, as well as the citizens. Keywords: City. Effectiveness instrument. Managing Plan. Popular involvement principle. Urbanistic Law.

This paper discusses democratisation practiced in Surakarta, Indonesia, which has been claimed by many experts as a municipality with "best practices" of democratic local governance in Indonesia. Their analyses focus on the actors and claim that participation is a possible way of crafting stable democracy. This participation in turn, they suggest, is a result of decentralisation which thus strengthen local democracy. Presenting the civil society participation and the decentralisation in the city of Surakarta, this paper shows that what actually happens is otherwise. It argues that the rise of popular participation was rooted in contentious local politics. Besides, the constitution of the new forms of popular representation are not supported by, and produced within, a clear ideological framework from the people in Surakarta.

Along this article we share our research in the field of urban creativity, in particular on how smart cities are becoming more and more independent and developing a spirit of sustainable autonomy that somehow creates creative opportunities in terms of memory and cultural identity. Our current article raises the issue of how can smart cities affect the creative process? We believe that creativity becomes a process linked into a digital world and becomes much more interactive. That is why new ways of artistic and digital expression can be welcomed by those who are used to new technologies, which daily influence human activity in the space of the city. In other words, with the use of the existing technology inside the cities and their interconnections with other cities we can conceive creative strategies that will contribute to preserve the memory as well as the cultural and creative identity of a people. Video-mapping is precisely one of those creative strategies, once it will directly interact between the real dimension and the virtual dimension. The use of video-mapping, as an element of covering the facades of buildings, can somehow help to make the streets more dynamic and transform them into other atmospheres. The city becomes part of the third dimension and people are interacting between the real and the virtual. The management of the urban space has been gradually changing and following the technological advance. Mobility and sustainability is one of the key factors in which a smart city has invested the most. Now is the time to invest in a relationship between the city and the people, making it more humane and giving space for creativity.

The use in the cities of Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) has increased, due to the political and economical control, that has favored their development. This new type of city (system) holds different names: Digital City and Smart City. The Smart City is a self-sustaining city. In the most innovative-technological dimension, there are included the factors for sustainable development. The Smart City uses the ICT, with the purpose of providing an infrastructure, that can guarantee: a sustainable development, an better life quality for its population, a higher efficiency when using the resources that are available and, a more active participation of the citizens. The focus of Smart City, is more popular among projects that imply transformation for this kind of cities. However, in researches that measure and classify some of the smart cities, there have been presented ideal models, where the main characteristics are based in the subsystems of these cities. The factor that allows establishing the level of intelligence that a city has achieved, is the analysis of a real city and then, comparing it to the features of a Smart City. This measurement model, can be adopted by the municipal government of the city, in order to carry out special improvement activities in their development plans. The case in this paper is the city of Manizales, which is considered to be the ICT city of Colombia. It was labeled as a Smart City by the adoption of intensive systems in ICT. Nevertheless, and according to a recent study in FEDESARROLLO, Manizales has the lowest usage rate of ICT in Colombia, based on the different components of urban intelligence. Therefore, this label is not based in a measurement that comprises all of the factors that define this type of cities. The project that is presented in this paper aims to set an assessment model, in order to measure the intelligence of Manizales as a Smart City. This paper is the final paper for graduation, in the Masters Program of Information Systems Management (Major).

Against the widespread assumption that data are the oil of the 21st century, this article offers an alternative conceptual framework, interpretation, and pathway around data and smart city nexus to subvert surveillance capitalism in light of emerging and further promising practical cases. This article illustrates an open debate in data governance and the data justice field related to current trends and challenges in smart cities, resulting in a new approach advocated for and recently coined by the UN-Habitat programme ‘People-Centred Smart Cities’. Particularly, this feature article sheds light on two intertwined notions that articulate the technopolitical dimension of the ‘People-Centred Smart Cities’ approach: data co-operatives and data sovereignty. Data co-operatives are emerging as a way to share and own data through peer-to-peer (p2p) repositories and data sovereignty is being claimed as a digital right for communities/citizens. Consequently, this feature article aims to open up new research avenues around ‘People-Centred Smart Cities’ approach: First, it elucidates how data co-operatives through data sovereignty could be articulated as long as co-developed with communities connected to the long history and analysis of the various forms of co-operatives (technopolitical dimension). Second, it prospectively anticipates the city–regional dimension encompassing data colonialism and data devolution.

Institutional Order

The American Revolution embodied conflicting impulses. So did the post-revolutionary institutional order, which was bedevilled by tensions between efforts to limit and to expand popular participation in government. These tensions played out in relationships between people, state governments, and federal institutions. Those who devised constitutions were wary of concentrating power, but also of leaving too much power to the people; the weakness of government in practice, and the diffusion of ideas of popular sovereignty, encouraged many to assert themselves, including some who lacked formal rights. Revisions to old and the drafting of new state constitutions repeatedly revealed these tensions. The consolidation of authority at state level during the early nineteenth century profoundly affected relations between people and government. Formal ascriptions of right – as between men and women, or enslaved and free people - played a growing part in determining who had power not only in government but in society.

Theories of the production and everyday use of space to examine the public suicides of young men and women in symbolic public spaces of Mexico City in the first decades of the twentieth century take center stage in Chapter 5. Individuals that whoopted for a public suicide made self-conscious decisions on how they would die, in particular, choosing the sites of their deaths for their personal and cultural meanings. Attempting to construct their selves in their suicides, young women, in particular, employed tropes of honorable death and conformed to a cultural logic of female suicide. They took great pains to choose the site and method of their sacrifice in order to communicate significant meanings through their deaths. Men as wellalso chose specific spaces in the city to author their deaths. Indeed, public suicides were not neutral geographies where life simply transpired. The production and the use of spaces in cities were and are constantly in tension. The people that whodesigned them and moved through them participated in the social construction of those spaces.

Today, our cities are facing a host of challenges to accomplish the quality of life or their inhabitants. On the one hand, city planners and architects seek to preserve heritage, habits, and city peculiarities. On the other hand, it is necessary that the city is kept abreast of the rapid changes in Information and Communications Technology (ICT), Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI) and smart city concept. In Baghdad, it could be observed that there are several activities based on community initiatives, awareness campaigns, and initiatives which are self-funding from youth or funding from NGOs, and INGOs. How can we invest in such initiatives to achieve a smart city, emphasizing that the city is for the people, not a city of things? As we know that smart cities have six factors: smart (economy, governance, environment, people, mobility, and living). This paper assumes that smart communities are the seventh factor of smart cities factors which could play an essential role to apply the smartness in Baghdad. In this case, it will help to achieve making decisions and a feedback evaluation system will be subject to transparency, openness, vitality, and sustainability because it will stem from the community and ensure the sustainability in a smart city.

Since urbanization rising and urban demographic increase, urban transportation has been an important life quality aspect and a strategic decision for cities. Mobility seems to follow citizens' behavior and be influenced by urban cultural changes at the same pace it influences back the city routine and resident’s conduct. The discussion around the future of mobility gained new magnitude nowadays since some sort of vehicles have proved themselves as the cause of significant environmental impact, while others showed themselves as alternatives of low impact for different reasons – from quality public transportation to individual transport with minimized emissions. The city of São Paulo in Brazil published its Master Plan in 2014 and its Mobility Plan in 2015, analyzing the current situation and proposing a future for the city’s transportation system. This paper intends to analyze both plans, construe the popular participation in their formulation and application, discuss how data and strategy were presented and whether they are aligned with other countries’ thinking on the subject. As a city of over 10 million inhabitants, in a Metropolitan Region of 39 cities with over 20 million inhabitants, the transportation system of São Paulo is not an easy or single-solution issue. It is known the need for a combination of different transportation modes, requiring likewise new visions for all methods. Owing to the fact that modes complete each other and, in that manner, may reach a wider range of options for the population to plan daily life, then a system with a great variety of modes ensures the best functioning of them all. This paper focuses on an outsider view that searches for answers and solutions on the São Paulo transportation system, having as a base what is considered outstanding in the world for this issue.
