Regulating Place looks at how design standards have shaped the
built environment of urban America. Tracing the history behind the
evolution of building codes, the contributors examine the
increasing influence of regulatory codes over urban design and
planning during the past century. From the environment to housing
to public space, the volume considers the positive and negative
effects of regulation on American cities - particularly the merits
of flexible approaches relative to more rigid, technocratic
methods. Regulating Place also questions what sort of criteria
should be used to measure regulatory success and what are the
legal, political and economic implications of re-structuring
standards and design guidelines.
