This book is the first to provide a cohesive analysis of sustainable urban development and to examine the processes by which change in how urban areas are built can be achieved. The author looks at how sustainable urban development can be delivered on the ground through a comprehensive analysis of the different modes of governing for new urban development. The book considers a range of policy tools that influence urban development and that constitute different modes of governing- provides an innovative conceptual emphasis on learning within governing processes - draws on a wide range of existing research, policy and literature together with case study material focussing on London The book is above all concerned with demonstrating how sustainable urban development can be delivered in practice" -- City planning Great Britain. 73701 Local Sustainable development Great Britain. 176115 lcc 6 First published HT169.G7 General R934 2010 250361 250361 0 0 lcc 0 0 4 4 33 2016-02-23 amazon 45.95 538365 0 General HT169.G7 R934 2010 91000000048199 2016-05-27 00:00:00 1 55.95 0000-00-00 6
