The Old Belgrade Fairground complex is the large area in the center of Belgrade that is completely isolated from other parts of Belgrade: it is one of the most devastated city areas, populated by poor inhabitants, often by those from the marginal groups, burdened with tragic history and it represents one of hardest problems for planners to solve. It is situated on the left bank of the Sava River between two bridges and downtown New Belgrade. Opposite to it, the Sava Amphitheatre slopes down the Belgrade Ridge towards the river. The complex was built in the thirties of the 20th century across the River Sava in the area that was an unpopulated swamp - Belgrade was situated on the right Sava bank. It was meant to be modern extension of oriental city, which could represent the western tendencies of the young state (Kingdom of Yugoslavia) and its capital. Modern and monumental complex of exhibition and commercial pavilions was built, and started its life with national and international fairs and exhibitions. World War 2 changed its destiny: German occupation forces transformed the complex into the concentration camp, where thousands of people were tortured and killed. After the war, new republican government, both communist and antifascist, had double frustration regarding this space: it?s tragic (during the War) and "capitalist" (before the War) past, so complex that was absolutely ignored in the period of the postwar renewal, and the result is described at the beginning of this text. This paper discusses the possibility to conciliate historical roles of the complex, and to realize it?s potentials in the modern world. Facts of the complex?s history are presented in the first part of the paper. Further on, these facts are analyzed in the context of contemporary city development of Belgrade in particular but globally, too.. Finally, some guidelines for crossing the gap between this area and the rest of the city are presented in the third part of the paper.

The article analyzes the images of the Irkutsk city center in the memories of the representatives of two marginal groups — street children and venders, who lived and worked there from 1999 to 2006, as well as its mo dern images in the public statements of the urban elites. The aim of the study is to identify the functions that the city center performed during the years of deep social transformations and to reveal why today one wants to forget about it as soon as possible. The author argues that the places mentioned by the respondents and the actions performed in those places largely shaped the current ideas about the period of social chaos in the “post-Soviet” city — a period of uncertainty, violence and fear. Today, these places and functions are mostly memories, which are gradually being replaced by the simplified and emotionally rich myths about the past that are being broadcast by the urban political regimes. The latter displace marginal groups from the center and change the places they previously occupied, simultaneously altering the collective memory associated with these places. The article puts forward and justifies a hypothesis that starting from the mid-1990s and almost until the end of the 2000s these territories were used by the majority of citizens as an extra-institutional interface necessary for connecting to the city resource node. This function has become the primary cause of fierce conflicts, during which numerous enforcers tried to establish a monopoly on the collection of rents from the human and resource flows concentrated there. The image of the center as a deviant place was constructed simultaneously by the urban regimes and marginal groups: the former used it as a weapon in the struggle for the “right to the city,” the latter associated it with the collective trauma they had experienced.

In the modern world, in using land resources, we are faced with a number of problems, this is more expressed in megacities, because the majority of the population of our planet lives in these territories. The article briefly analyzes the current state of Krasnoyarsk, physical-geographical and economic conditions of the city development. The issues of territorial planning in the city are considered on the example of the microdistrict "Pokrovsky". High-rise buildings and their crowding influenced on the formation of wind flows and dispersion of impurities. It is established that the building affects the wind speed, reducing it by nearly 25-30% compared to the undeveloped urban part. In a dense building, the wind speed can be reduced to 70%. Inefficient land use model is reflected in the quality of the living environment, including the connectivity of the territory. The infrastructure is developed for children of younger preschool age-yard areas are everywhere equipped with children's game elements. Social adaptability for the elderly in the district is poorly expressed. The issue of parking spaces is acute, and their lack indicates the impossibility of creating a neighborhood with a high level of quality of life. Local problems include the construction of noise screens along major highways, which have a low-quality design and technical solution. The provision of public transport is unsatisfactory. Spatially in the "intercession" we need a clear separation of yards and public spaces. Due to this, within the four large neighborhoods-quarters there will be a quasi-quarterly structure that helps to organize the hierarchy of spaces, eliminating or minimizing transit traffic through the yards.

Pekanbaru City as a metropolitan city that continues to increase the population of the population, thus causing an increase in the amount of waste generated every day. This certainly requires the City Government of Pekanbaru especially Tampan district which has a very large area and a very large population in order to be able to manage the existing waste in this area. But in reality, this has not been done optimally. Sudjana (2004: 17) defines that management or management is the ability and special skills to do something good activities with others or through others in achieving organizational goals. This research aims to know and analyze the management of integrated waste processing, the inhibiting factor, and the integrated waste management in improving the right people economy in Kecamatan Tampan Pekanbaru City. The method of analysis used in this study is qualitative and quantitative. The result of this research is that integrated garbage management in improving people's economy in Kecamatan Tampan Pekanbaru has not been implemented maximally. This is due to factors of sources and types of waste, behavioral factors of society (social and cultural), institutional factors and facilities and infrastructure. So it is a very necessary application of integrated waste processing management in improving the society's economy in Tampan district of Pekanbaru city through the application of Community-based Processing.

The open-air Upper Paleolithic site of Sunghir (Сунгирь; Sungir’) is located along the northeastern edge of the Vladimir urban area, Russia, 192 km north of Moscow (56°10'30"N, 40°30'30"E). It is within the village of Dobrogo, currently absorbed into the city of Vladimir. The site is on the high left bank of the Klyazma River and on the right bank of the Sunghir stream close to where it flows into the river, ~750 m from the former, ~600 m from the latter, and ~50 m above the current level of the Klyazma. At the time of its discovery in 1955, the site was buried under several meters of loess, which were being removed with heavy equipment by the Vladimir Ceramic (or Brick) Works. The archeological material (see Bader 1978) was first unearthed in June 1955 by A.F. Nacharov, operating a power-shovel to remove sediment from the clay pit of the Vladimir Ceramic Works. During the summer, bones and eventually artifacts and hearths were turning up in the bucket of the equipment in a layer 15 to 20 cm thick and 2.8 to 3.2 m below the surface. Nacharov turned the artifacts and some of the bones over to the Vladimir District Regional Museum; the site was then repeatedly inspected by local individuals and V.M. Maslov, with word of the site eventually reaching O.N. Bader. The site was further investigated during the summer of 1956, with the first assessments of the nature and extent of the Paleolithic remains. As a result of the richness of the material, and especially the location of the site—it was the furthest north Paleolithic site known at the time—it was visited by series of specialists and in 1957 systematic long-term excavations were begun under the direction of O.N. Bader (archeology), V.I. Gromov (geology, fauna), and V.N. Sukachev (flora). Systematic excavations then proceeded for sixteen seasons from 1957 to 1977; more limited work has been undertaken recently (Seleznev 2008).

The aim of the logistics is to ensure that the right things and the right time are in the right place, all with minimum cost. Today, many software is used to solve the distribution. One of them is software PTV Vissim. This software explains individual microscopic simulations. The extensive analytical tools acquired in PTV Vissim make it a level tool for transport planning and traffic optimization. Using this system, you can simulate the existing transport system and then make changes. Due to the ever-increasing number of vehicles in operation and the increasing intensity of cars, urban traffic is deteriorating. The aim of the article is to design a new transport system in the city of Uherské Hradiště in connection with the arrival at the hospital in the event of the states of crisis. Twenty years ago, the town of Uherské Hradiště was hit by enormous floods that cut off the hospital from access. No correction has been made yet. The current proposals for solutions mainly for city development. The authors consider access to the hospital as a critical element of the service to the population. The development of the city is taken as a secondary task. The software is simulating the current state and then the proposed changes. The paper is divided into four parts. Introduction to the problem, determination of limiting factors, simulation using PTV Vissim software and conclusion.

The results of ecological and floristic studies of the rarity component of the urban flora of Kharkiv City in the valley of the Udy River within the Novobovarskyi microdistrict are presented. Field studies were conducted in 2017‒2020. A triangular section of 30.48 hectares was investigated near the Novozhanovo railway station. It is located on the left bank of the river Udy and is bounded on both sides by railway embankments. The Udy River valley is situated in the northeast of the city, mainly in the previously underdeveloped areas; its significant part lays in the exclusion zone of the Kharkiv railway junction and road transport routes. A large area of the river valley is swampy, therefore unsuitable for economic use. The Udianskyi eco-corridor of local importance passes through the city. It consists of two key areas: the Zhovtnevyi Hydropark wetlands and the Kriukivskyi hydrological reserve of local importance. Currently, it has been proposed to create a botanical preserve of local importance "Novozhanivskyi" for the protection of species and associations rare for Kharkiv Region and for conservation of the true meadow formation (Prata genuine) of the class Festuceta pratensis. The site is of scientific importance, since a number of species growing there are listed in the Red Data Book of Ukraine and need protection under Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) – Ophioglossum vulgatum, Botrychium lunaria, Anacamptis coriophora, A. palustris, Epipactis palustris, Parnassia palustris, Centaurium erythraea, C. pulchellum, Valeriana officinalis, Inula helenium, Dianthus stenocalyx. The investigated area phytodiversity is represented by meadow and psammophytic species of vascular plants: Calamagrostis epigeios, Agrostis vinealis, Poa pratensis, Koeleria cristata, Nardus stricta, Sieglingia decumbens, Anthoxanthum odoratum, Festuca orientalis, Juncus gerardii, Botrychium lunaria, Genista tinctoria, Solidago virgaurea, Euphrasia pectinata, Stellaria graminea, Hieracium villosum, H. umbellatum, Polygala sibirica, Plantago lanceolata, Equisetum arvense, Achillea submillefolium. For the five plant species listed in the Red Data Book of Ukraine, the distribution maps within the area of proposed preserve are given.

Fights over the ‘right to the city’ have emphasized the interests of the four main actors within the city development of India since the first cases of revolting social movements in Delhi. The four actors can be classified as the social movements, the public, media and the government. The case of India Gate in Delhi is illustrative not only of how the differences between the actors come into surface, but of also of how these actors change their priorities, their stance and their tools, in order to secure their position in the city. Many scholars have analysed the role of social movements and how it evolves in the process. But what about the role of government as an entity that is in between the interests of social movements, public and media? How and why do they change their stance when a movement takes place? What are their limitations? The India Gate case can give the answers to these questions, as it examines the multiple transformations of this space over time. This paper emphasizes on the idea of Space. How space shapes public and public (re)shape their own spaces. India gate. This space has been stuck between the idea of being a space or a branded space. It was assumed that media plays a prominent role in acting like a watchdog in democracies, but this paper looks at how media if used rightfully can be forced for a good in oppressive regimes and therefore, a vigilant and alert media can act as an external trigger or an emergency- wake up call for the youth of India to take the cause of freedom seriously. Rightfully as put up by Ritish (2012), an external event or issue may allow for the manifestation of a flash fandom in the form of flash activism. Since, social movement’s needs mass media attention for amplification of their claims, the media also join the movements too create the news. Lastly, the consequences of the media coverage for social movements, in terms of organisation, reaching political change and obtaining favourable public opinion is comprehended in three different case studies.

Data on cadmium distribution in the soils of industrial, residential and recreational areas of Dniprodzerzhinsk city are presented. According to the classification of urban soils the following types of soils were identified in the city: urban soil proper, plantosoil, anthropogenic-surface-transformed natural soil and lawn soil. We have made the estimation of cadmium content. The problem of soils contamination in the city with high anthropogenic load is discussed. The total cadmium content in the industrial, residential and recreational soils of Dniprodzerzhinsk varies within 0.6–10.5 mg/kg, but movable forms make 0.1–3.4 mg/kg of soil. Cadmium in the urban soil proper of the right-bank city surpasses the maximum permissible concentration (MPC) twice. At the same time the soils in the left-bank area and in the eastern and western areas of the right-bank were under MPC.

Amasya, wrote a visitor at the turn of this century, is “the most picturesque town of all Anatolia, the Baghdad of Rûm”. Another called the city “l'Oxford de l'Anatolie”. One of its principal charms is the River Iris, the Yeşil Irmak, which runs through the town. Beautiful but not potable: “Tokat dumps in it, Amasya drinks it” is a Turkish proverb at least as old as Evliye Çelebi, who visited the town in the first half of the seventeenth century.In ancient times the city would seem to have taken its water from a source in the neighbouring hills. It was carried along an aqueduct cut, for the most part, into the face of the cliffs which form the side of the river valley south and west of the town and on the right bank of the river (Fig. 1). The castle of Amasya, on the left bank, had its own arrangements for water supply described by the geographer Strabo, a native of the city, and these should not be confused with the aqueduct on the right bank.
