    Urban sociology is a dynamic field of study that explores the social, economic, and political aspects of urban spaces and how they shape individuals and communities. It draws from various theoretical foundations to understand the complexities of city life and the ways in which urban environments influence human behavior. Several foundational theories have played a pivotal role in shaping the field, each offering a distinct perspective on urban society. 
    One of the earliest and most influential theories is the Chicago School of Sociology, which emerged in the early 20th century. Scholars such as Robert Park and Ernest Burgess focused on the spatial distribution of social groups within cities, emphasizing the concept of the “ecology” of cities. They argued that cities, like natural ecosystems, are composed of different areas where social groups interact, often resulting in patterns of segregation and social conflict. This approach highlighted the dynamic relationship between individuals and their urban environment, with a particular focus on issues like migration, social disorganization, and the impact of urban growth. 
    Another key theoretical foundation is Karl Marx's analysis of urbanization. Marxism focuses on the role of capitalism in shaping urban spaces, viewing cities as sites of economic exploitation and class struggle. According to Marxist theory, the growth of cities is intrinsically linked to the development of capitalism, which creates divisions between the working class and the capitalist elite. This perspective emphasizes the role of urban spaces in perpetuating social inequalities, as the wealthy class controls resources and the working class is often marginalized or displaced.

    This title consists of two books, which are: 
    Civil Engineering - Civil engineering is a multifaceted field that intersects with many aspects of our daily lives. It involves the planning, design, construction, and maintenance of infrastructure that supports modern society, including buildings, bridges, roads, railways, airports, water supply and treatment systems, wastewater treatment plants, and more. 
    Civil engineers collaborate with architects, urban planners, environmental scientists, and other professionals to create functional and resilient structures that meet the needs of communities while considering factors like safety, sustainability, cost-effectiveness, and environmental impact. 
    Environmental Engineering - Environmental engineering encompasses a broad range of disciplines, including but not limited to water resources engineering, air quality engineering, solid waste management, environmental chemistry, environmental microbiology, and ecological engineering. 
    In water resources engineering, environmental engineers work on designing and managing systems for the treatment and distribution of drinking water, as well as the collection, treatment, and disposal of wastewater. They also deal with issues related to stormwater management, flood control, and erosion prevention.

    How inequality was forged, fought over, and forgotten through public policy in metropolitan Chicago. As in many American metropolitan areas, inequality in Chicagoland is visible in its neighborhoods. These inequalities are not inevitable, however. They have been constructed and deepened by public policies around housing, schooling, taxation, and local governance, including hidden state government policies.In Structuring Inequality, historian Tracy L. Steffes shows how metropolitan inequality in Chicagoland was structured, contested, and naturalized over time even as reformers tried to change it through school desegregation, affordable housing, and property tax reform. While these efforts had modest successes in the city and the suburbs, reformers faced significant resistance and counter-mobilization from affluent suburbanites, real estate developers, and other defenders of the status quo who defended inequality and reshaped the policy conversation about it. Grounded in comprehensive archival research and policy analysis, Structuring Inequality examines the history of Chicagoland’s established systems of inequality and provides perspective on the inequality we live with today.

    For centuries, industrialization and factory-based production have been core ingredients in economic growth, development, and innovation. This symbiotic relationship between industrialization and economic prosperity is now changing. "Megatrends"—trends within the domains of technology, economy, society, and ecology that have a global impact—are changing the ability of the manufacturing sector to serve as the engine of growth, changing traditional ideas of technological progress, and changing growth and development opportunities in both the global South and the global North. 
     
     
     
    Four megatrends are particularly worthy of note: the rise of services, digital automation technologies, globalization of production, and ecological breakdown. In this book, Jostein Hauge provides a novel analysis of how these megatrends are changing industrialization, and charts new pathways for industrial policy and global governance. He also offers a wide-ranging account of the role of technology, globalization, and ecology in shaping the world economy. The Future of the Factory shows that industrialization remains a cornerstone of economic prosperity, but that power asymmetries in the world economy create uneven opportunities for achieving economic growth, development, and industrialization.
