Urbane Lebensräume sind heutzutage mit stetig wachsender Mobilität, wiederkehrenden wirtschaftlichen Krisen und Naturkatastrophen konfrontiert. Als Antwort darauf haben sich in der Stadtplanung neue hybride Formen entwickelt, die über traditionelle Verfahren hinausgehen. Durch die Einbeziehung von Methoden aus anderen Disziplinen ist die Planungspraxis zunehmend komplexer geworden und auf Impulse durch Informationen, Ideen und Maßnahmen aus verschiedensten Wirtschaftssystemen, Gesellschaften und geografischen Räumen angewiesen.

Die reich bebilderte Essaysammlung bietet eine umfassende Einführung in neue Ansätze der Stadtplanung weltweit, mit Fallstudien aus demografisch, politisch, kulturell und sozial sehr diversen Regionen wie Mittel- und Südamerika, Europa, dem Nahen Osten und Ostasien. Neben konventionellen Planungsmethoden stellt der Band experimentelle und interdisziplinäre Ansätze der Stadtplanung vor.

Summary

Today’s urban environments face ever-increasing flows of human movement, natural disasters, and iterative economic crises. In response, city planning has developed innovative, hybrid forms that go beyond conventional ways of planning. Integrating practices of other disciplines, planning has become increasingly intricate and at the same time dependent on the cross fertilization of data, ideas, and actions across economies, societies, and geographies.
This richly illustrated book of edited essays aims at introducing new approaches towards the planning of cities across the world, including Central and South America, Europe, the Middle East, and East Asia. Covering demographically, politically, culturally, and socially diverse regions, it not only examines the use of conventional planning tools, but also explores more experimental and cross-disciplinary approaches of urban planning.
