Description

Explore the complex relationship between city planning and society with The Social Impacts of Urban Containment. While many studies focus on land use, transportation, or economic development, this Routledge publication shifts the focus to the human element. Urban containment policies are designed to limit urban sprawl and preserve rural areas, including habitats, agriculture, and forestry. This book provides a deep look into how these planning controls affect key social issues. It is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in how urban growth limits shape the lives of people living within and around expanding metropolitan regions. By examining the social side of urban planning and the environment, this text offers a perspective often missing from traditional land-use research. It is a vital addition to any collection focused on anthropology, sociology, or urban studies.
