Description

As the global population moves toward cities at a rapid pace, the benefits of urban growth are often not shared equally. This book by Routledge examines the shift in urban development from state-led responsibility to market-driven and public-private initiatives. It explores how these changes can sometimes leave the urban poor out of important decision-making processes. This text provides a deep look at the essential conditions needed for effective urban planning and management. It focuses on the importance of bottom-up community initiatives to ensure that development is both equitable and sustainable. Readers will gain an understanding of how civil society and local communities play a role in shaping the future of our cities. This is an essential resource for those studying the balance between market forces and the needs of urban populations.
