Description

What does it mean to be urban? This book explores the complexities of the urban concept, examining how it is described, contextualized, and applied in both theory and practice. As urban processes become central to international policy and research, understanding the definition of the urban is more important than ever. This text addresses the fact that the urban remains a contested idea, serving as both a material reality and an imaginary construct. Because the term is often imprecisely defined, this book serves as a guide for those working across traditional academic disciplines and emerging interdisciplinary fields. It is designed to support the needs of transdisciplinary thinkers and professionals who require a deeper understanding of urban processes in a global context.
