Big in Brussels: The art of working and living in the EU Bubble
Big in Brussels: The art of working and living in the EU Bubble
The Brussels “EU Bubble” is a high-pressure, fast-churn and competitive environment where career success can often come at a high personal cost. Drawing on his own experience and the collective wisdom of many Brussels insiders, Jeroen Reijnen explains “the art of working and living in the EU Bubble” − in other words, how best to achieve a positive work-life balance in a city where people come and go, and burnout, rootlessness and loneliness are all too common.As Jeroen explains: “Where 'Big in Brussels' started out just as a book about making a career, it evolved into one about how to live the 'Good Life' in the EU Bubble.” His advice is practical, realistic and engaging.

Atlas: Makerspaces in Public Libraries in The Netherlands (Paperback)
Atlas: Makerspaces in Public Libraries in The Netherlands (Paperback)
Public libraries want to contribute to an inclusive and innovative society and aim to enable their patrons to acquire the necessary 21st century skills. Dutch public libraries are therefore gradually adding more and more activities to their curriculum, teaching these different types of skills, such as 'invention literacy'. They also often provide a 'performative space' (i.e. a makerspace) for their patrons. This means library spaces are no longer dominated by books, but rather reflect the current development in libraries' core business, moving from collections to connections in order to serve their local communities. The KB, the National Library of The Netherlands, participated in the KIEM project Performative Spaces in Dutch Public Libraries. Stepping Stones of Inclusive Innovation, researching the development of performative spaces in libraries. This project, a collaboration with the Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment at the Delft University of Technology, fits the KBs

City of the Future / Stad van de Toekomst (Paperback)
City of the Future / Stad van de Toekomst (Paperback)
How can we design and develop a transformation area in an integral way into an attractive and future-proof urban environment? This is the the central question of the research project Stad van de Toekomst (City of the Future). This question is motivated by urgent social as well as local tasks in the urban areas, varying from housing demand, social inclusiveness, new economy, climate adaptation, and the like, taking into account the transitions in energy, mobility, circularity and digitization. Based on future scenarios, the aim and intended results of this study are to obtain insights into the central and local questions in order to inform integral area development from systems and networks. In addition, also transitions to other spatial conditions are addressed. Such insights can have significance for the developments of a number of locations, and contribute to the policy of local and central governments.

Productomschrijving

The 21st century will be the century of superdiversity. Ethnic-cultural diversity in Europe continues to grow, even though governments try to limit further migration with a series of short-sighted measures. In Brussels, the capital city of Belgium and Europe, two out of every three residents has a migration background. Within a matter of years, Antwerp will also become a majority-minority city, as will many other European cities. How will superdiversity change our society? How can we all manage to live together in superdiversity? This book wants to redefine the deadlocked ideological debate about the desirability (or otherwise) of a multicultural society. In the 21st century, it is no longer a question of 'whether' we want such a society or not, but a question of 'how' we can deal with a superdiverse reality that is already upon us. How can we make best use of the potential inherent in this superdiversity and how can we avoid the pitfalls it entails? Superdiversity in the heart of
