Pages : 448
Book Description
The Routledge Handbook of Small Towns addresses the theoretical, methodical, and practical issues related to the development of small towns and neighbouring countryside. Small towns play a very important role in spatial structure by performing numerous significant developmental functions for rural areas. At the local scale, they act as engines for economic growth of rural regions and as a link in the system of connections between large urban centres and the countryside. The book addresses the role of small towns in the local development of regions in countries with different levels of development and economic systems, including those in Europe, Africa, South America, Asia, and Australia. Chapters address the functional structure of small towns, relations between small towns and rural areas, and the challenges of spatial planning in the context of shaping the development of small towns. Students and scholars of urban planning, urban geography, rural geography, political geography, historical geography, and population geography will learn about the role of small towns in the local development of countries representing different economic systems and developmental conditions.

Book Description
D'ici la fin du XXIe siècle, neuf Européens sur dix vivront en milieu urbain. Mais dans quel type de ville se sentiront-ils chez eux ? Vous trouverez toutes les réponses à vos questions dans LA VILLE SE TRANSFORME, la nouvelle série d'articles de la Banque européenne d'investissement. Ce premier texte tous azimuts de la série propose une vaste exploration de l'histoire des villes européennes au cours des cinquante dernières années et révèle les nouvelles directions qu'empruntent certaines de nos cités les plus innovantes. Les experts en urbanisme Greg Clark, Tim Moonen, et Jake Nunley, basés à l'University College London, portent un regard précis sur la transformation des grandes villes d'Europe issues du déclin post industriel en métropoles florissantes dont la prospérité et l'habitabilité n'ont rien à envier à celles de bien d'autres lieux sur terre.
Housing Estates in Europe
Author: Daniel Baldwin HessPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319928139
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 429
Book Description
This open access book explores the formation and socio-spatial trajectories of large housing estates in Europe. Are these estates clustered or scattered? Which social groups originally had access to residential space in housing estates? What is the size, scale and geography of housing estates, their architectural and built environment composition, services and neighbourhood amenities, and metropolitan connectivity? How do housing estates contribute to the urban mosaic of neighborhoods by ethnic and socio-economic status? What types of policies and planning initiatives have been implemented in order to prevent the social downgrading of housing estates? The collection of chapters in this book addresses these questions from a new perspective previously unexplored in scholarly literature. The social aspects of housing estates are thoroughly investigated (including socio-demographic and economic characteristics of current and past inhabitants; ethnicity and segregation patterns; population dynamics; etc.), and the physical composition of housing estates is described in significant detail (including building materials; building form; architectural and landscape design; built environment characteristics; etc.). This book is timely because the recent global economic crisis and Europe’s immigration crisis demand a thorough investigation of the role large housing estates play in poverty and ethnic concentration. Through case studies of housing estates in 14 European centers, the book also identifies policy measures that have been used to address challenges in housing estates throughout Europe.
