2ha: the journal of suburban design #05

2ha #05 considers the relationship between language and suburban space. Three essays respond to the fractured process of translation that has come to define the territory of suburbia.

2ha #05 considers the relationship between language and suburban space. Three essays respond to the fractured process of translation that has come to define the territory of suburbia. Liam Mac Mathúna outlines a history of linguistic change in the Dublin area, describing how preceding eras of colonisations and cultures have renamed, subverted, and built upon a place and its people. Emma Geoghegan documents the absence of a vocabulary in both the imagination and critique of space on the urban-rural fringe, suggesting that a consideration of this landscape as an independent territory might begin a means of understanding its unique conditions. Isobel Ní Riain reveals how a reading of place-names, in the now suburbanised area of Little Island on the edge of Cork city, can tell of a long history of occupation; one whose built form is often subsumed by the office parks and semi-ds of the immediate present.

2ha: the journal of suburban design #12

2ha #12 considers the power of local, national, and international governance in determining suburban morphology. Three essays focus on the multiple means by which bureaucratic structures and political ideologies control the ways, rules, and regulations in which suburban development takes place.

2ha #12 considers the power of local, national, and international governance in determining suburban morphology. Three essays focus on the multiple means by which bureaucratic structures and political ideologies control the ways, rules, and regulations in which suburban development takes place. Ciarán Wallace documents the history of Dublin's early suburban communities, and how these administratively, politically, and financially autonomous townships negotiated local government reform, the practicalities of infrastructure and service provision, and the minefield of national politics. Seán O'Leary recounts the story behind Ireland's 20th-century New Towns – Ballymun, Tallaght, and Shannon – and highlights the role played by financial circumstance, political expediency, and administrative inexperience in shaping their prospective futures. Roger Keil and Pierre Hamel position the topic of suburban governance in a global context, outlining the diverse modes of control, discussing the various scales of organisation, and considering the impact of these jurisdictional typologies internationally.
