OverviewLatin America and the Caribbean constitute the second-most urbanised region in the world, with many cities still growing exponentially. Long-term strategies need to be developed to meet the resulting challenges. How can growing cities be planned without neglecting their urbanity? How can urban spatial growth be managed in tandem with social, environmental, cultural, and economic challenges? Between 2013 and 2018, the Urban Design Lab worked in over twenty emerging cities in Latin America and the Caribbean. They developed dynamic planning tools that trigger transformative urban processes by engaging and empowering local communities. This handbook not only explains the context and emerging problems faced by the cities of Latin America and the Caribbean, but also proposes solutions for typical difficulties encountered within those urban conglomerations. 250 colour, 50 b/w images Full Product DetailsAuthor: Roland Krebs , Markus TomaselliPublisher: JOVIS Verlag Imprint: JOVIS Verlag Dimensions: Width: 20.00cm , Height: 3.20cm , Length: 26.00cm Weight: 1.035kg ISBN: 9783868595628ISBN 10: 3868595627 Pages: 384 Publication Date: 30 January 2019 Audience: Professional and scholarly , Professional & Vocational Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.
