rearranging the Netherlands

KORTE INHOUD

9056621637

In the Netherlands, as in many other countries, urban and spatial planning often seem to consist of good intentions, policy initiatives, and blueprints, and not of material changes in the public's way of life. When these kinds of 'planning' actually do come alive, when people find that something in their daily living environment has changed, they are not sure why. Seeking to shed some light on how spatial planning and daily life do intersect to a great degree, photographer Theo Baart, journalist Tracy Metz, and urban planner Tjerk Ruimschotel present, each in their own 'language, ' a portrait of the changing Netherlands. This Atlas presents a picture of the new 'cognitive map' of the Netherlands' inhabitants, a map that exchanges the traditional concentric socio-spatial structure (house-neighborhood-city) for a far more intricate overlap of perspectives on and perceptions of our environment, giving us great insight into the complexity of a national landscape on the move.
