Abstract

Ontspannen wonen in het groen, dichtbij stedelijke voorzieningen als ziekenhuizen, scholen, werkgelegenheid en culturele instellingen. Dat waren uitgangspunten voor nieuwe steden die vanaf 1970 werden gebouwd rond oude dorpskernen of vanuit het niets. De meest kenmerkende nieuwe steden zijn Almere, Lelystad, Purmerend, Nieuwegein, Capelle aan den IJssel, Spijkenisse en Haarlemmermeer. Buitenstaanders hebben vaak weinig waardering voor deze steden, met hun ‘bloemkoolwijken’, winkelcentra en gebrek aan stadshart. De auteurs van dit boek nuanceren dit beeld, en tonen de positieve kwaliteiten en mogelijkheden van deze planmatig gevormde steden. Aan de hand van zes thema’s (zoals ‘De gedachte stad’, de ‘De ontworpen stad’, en ‘De geleefde stad’), geeft deze rijk geïllustreerde Atlas een beeld van hun ontstaansgeschiedenis, van de huidige situatie en van hun toekomst.

Abstract

The enormous increase of urbanisation characterising the 20th century often overlays the architectural approaches that took place when cities were founded and continue to have an effect into the present day. Many cities have been newly planned and built from the ground up and relevant new towns' yards are open in Asia and Africa. What they all have in common is the search for a new urban beginning. The aim of ambitious programs in the forthcoming decades should especially be a better control of the growth of metropolises and urbanised regional patterns, with a view to the environmental behaviour of people. This book, which not only presents fundamental international planning features, examines factors such as location, size and layout in particular, as well as the spatial value of new metropolises.

Abstract

"Providing an in-depth exploration of the complexities of densification policy and processes, this book brings the important experiences of densification in Johannesburg into conversation with a range of cities in Africa, the BRICS countries and the Global North. It moves beyond the divisive debate over whether densification is good or bad, adding nuance and complexity to the calls from multilateral organisations for densification as a key urban strategy. Using empirical work in a comparative frame, Densifying the City? examines how densification policies and processes have manifested often in unanticipated or contrary ways. It offers important insights into resident-led densification and the processes and motivations that drive these activities. This will be an invigorating read for urban studies and urban planning scholars looking to move beyond a basic understanding of densifying cities to understanding the strategy behind it and its successes. Urban policy makers will also appreciate the use of key case studies throughout the book"--
