Description

Cities across Sub-Saharan Africa face a unique set of social, economic, and environmental pressures. Rapid population growth, urban sprawl, and the rise of informality create a complex landscape that requires deep understanding and thoughtful reform. This book by Routledge provides a broad perspective on the history of urban planning within the region. By examining both colonial and post-colonial planning cultures, this text offers a critical view of the issues and challenges facing today's urban policy makers. It explores the history of how cities were shaped and looks at the opportunities available for future development.
