Handbook on Smart Growth

Edited by Gerrit-Jan Knaap, Rebecca Lewis, Arnab Chakraborty and Katy June-Friesen

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This timely Research Handbook examines the evolution of smart growth over the past three decades, mapping the trajectory from its original principles to its position as an important paradigm in urban planning today. Critically analysing the original concept of smart growth and how it has been embedded in state and local plans, contributions from top scholars in the field illustrate what smart growth has accomplished since its conception, as well as to what extent it has achieved its goals.Â
