This book provides a review of the bioregionalist theory in the
field of spatial planning and design as a suitable approach to cope
with the growing concerns about the negative effects of
metropolization processes and the need for a sustainable
transition. The book starts out with a section on rethinking places
for community life, and discusses the reframing of regional
governance and development as well as social justice in spatial
planning. It introduces the concept of the urban bioregion, a
pivotal concept that underpins balanced polycentric spatial
patterns and supports self-reliant and fair local development. The
second part of the book focuses on planning, and particularly on
the issues that arise from the 'circular' recovery of the relation
between city and agro-ecosystems for integrated planning and
resilience of settlements and discusses topics such as foodshed
planning, biophilic urbanism and the integration of rural
development and spatial planning. This volume sets out the
reference framework for Volume II which deals with more specific
and operational issues related to spatial policies and settlement
design.
