- Résumé : Civics as Applied Sociology by Patrick Geddes is a seminal work that explores the intersection of sociology and urban planning. Presented in two parts, the text was initially delivered at meetings of the Sociological Society in 1904 and 1905. Geddes emphasizes the importance of understanding cities through both geographic and historic lenses, advocating for comprehensive civic surveys to inform urban development. The first part of the work introduces the concept of the geographic and historic survey of cities, highlighting the role of citizens in urban evolution and the application of sociology to contemporary urban issues. Geddes discusses the literature of civics and engages in discussions and written communications to further elaborate on these ideas. The second part delves deeper into the methodologies for conducting civic surveys, addressing the challenges of geographical determinism and the necessity for abstract methods in notation and interpretation. Geddes proposes a methodical analysis of the city-complex, comparing towns and schools, and examining their mutual influences. He explores the development of educational institutions and their impact on urban areas, evolving from "school" to "cloister" and eventually to the "city proper." The text also addresses the historical city-complex, the inherent challenges of urban environments, and the symbolic meanings of civic elements. Geddes concludes with a forecast of city development, using Glasgow as a case study to illustrate the evolution from "paleotechnic" to "neotechnic" phases, and proposes a practical civic exhibition to showcase these ideas.
