内容説明

Over the past two decades, sustainability has become a principal concern for city administrators. It is more than just an environmental issue entailing economic, demographic, governance, social, and amenity aspects. After a short introduction to some theory, this book provides broad coverage of these aspects and their manifestations in Asia, Africa, Europe and North America. The contributors discuss, in detail, topics surrounding measurement, growth strategy, citizen participation, revitalization, and competitiveness. Though each of the cities discussed - ranging from Shanghai, to Barcelona, to Montreal - are distinct, there are similarities that connect them all. The book highlights their common elements to provide a feasible outcome for sustainable urban development. City administrators, academics and other researchers and consultants will find both the theory and principles discussed in this book of great interest. The individual contributions will be useful for students at all levels pursuing urban economics, environmental studies, planning and public policy. Contributors: L. Van den Berg, L. Bruzzo, D. Ietri, W. Jacobs, S. Jianfa, J.-L. Klein, P.K. Kresl, D. Maurrasse, W. Mittulah, M. Nijdam, I. Orihuela, N. Pengfei, J. Rochman, C. Shaopeng, J. Sobrino, D.-G. Tremblay, J. Trullen, E. van Tuijl
