Clean interior with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Cover is age-toned. Spine noticeably creased with faint grubby marks. -- In the traditional Muslim settlement, owners and us…ers enjoyed maximum control over the built environment which led to maximising the best use of available space and resources. The environment was shaped through mutual agreement and time-tested conventions, with minimal intervention from authorities. A different pattern of responsibility exists in the contemporary Muslim city. Control is vested in the government, which maintains an orderly state of affairs through proliferating regulations. This has led to responsibility being dispersed amongst those sharing physical elements and urban spaces resulting in many unforeseen and often disastrous consequences. The author delineates the principles that shaped the traditional Muslim environment by investigating traditional and contemporary legal systems, the decision making process, cases of disputes among neighbours, territorial structures and conventions. Using a constructed model of responsibility (a synthesis of two concepts, the concept of claims and the concept of parties), he traces the claims of ownership, control and use and evaluates the contemporary built environment. The main argument is that without understanding mechanisms such as control, one cannot understand the built environment and thus cannot design it. The book provides some serious food for thought for scholars and those involved in implementing the national development policies in the Third World. It will also arouse the interest of the lay observer on the Muslim community life-styles past and present. -- Contents: Introduction; 1.

Zustand: New. The book argues that interactions between the claims of "ownership", "control" and "use" can elucidate crisis in our environments through measuring responsibilities. Levels of responsibility created by propeties' and individuals' rights developed by societal systems, shape our attitudes and actions in most realms o…f urban life such as utilization, maintenance, investments, etc. In this edition, further arguments were added such as the impossibility of achieving sustainability and justice within socialism or capitalism. Editors: Translator: 378 pages.
