دانلود کتاب قربانیان جنگ و حقوق شهر

The idea behind this book was initiated when I moved to Italy to get my Ph.D. in spatial planning. I decided to conduct my research coming from a different reality where cities confront complex challenges as a result of wars and conflicts. Consequently, during my Ph.D. program, my research focused on a critical issue of urban transformations: refugee camps or, as I addressed the phenomenon, “temporary cities.” After discussing my dissertation, I had the definite purpose of promulgating myperspective about this phenomenon in post-war cities, and Iwanted to letmy voice be internationally heard. Fortunately, after a couple of great conversations with Prof. Andrew James Hopkins, I was able to meet with the genius Prof. Farnaz Arefian, who was gracious enough to review my book proposal. As you will see, this book discusseswar victims’ right to a city. In other words, the need for refugees and citizens returning to their homelands after wars to have a real, permanent, functional city. It presents a framework that links urbicide, emergency management, and integrated urban planning to discuss refugees’ immediate need for a city, using as evidence the issue of post-conflict displacement resulting from the Syrian civil war. Consequently, it describes the need for a new urban agenda to provide fully functional cities for two types of war victims: refugees in host countries and those returning to their homelands. This book discusses this urgent need within two critical cases: the Syrian refugees in the Zaatari refugee camp and the repatriate population in Damascus. It assesses their current conditions, filling the gaps in urban politics that deal with post-conflict reconstructions. The novelty of this study is in creating this cross-case synthesis that helps to draw the rights of war victims in a real city, not a shelter or a camp. Beyond that, this study contributes to the literature by creating a conceptual framework for post-conflict reconstruction in the case of the Syrian civil war. In summary, this book provides a novel, comprehensive conceptual framework for post-conflict reconstruction, which represents a step toward understanding how to deal with the urgent need for housing with more long-term outcomes that will help in advancing a new urban agenda for internal and external developers in the reconstruction field.
