The Routledge Handbook of Regional Design explores contemporary
research, policy, and practice that highlight critical aspects of
strategy-making, planning, and designing for contemporary
regions-including city regions, bioregions, delta regions, and
their hybrids. As accelerating urbanization and globalization
combine with other forces such as the demand for increasing returns
on investment capital, migration, and innovation, they yield cities
that are expanding over ever-larger territories. Moreover, these
polycentric city regions themselves are agglomerating with one
another to create new territorial mega-regions. The processes that
beget these novel regional forms produce numerous and significant
effects, positive and negative, that call for new modes of design
and management so that the urban places and the lives and
well-being of their inhabitants and businesses thrive sustainably
into the future. With international case studies from leading
scholars and practitioners, this book is an important resource not
just for students, researchers, and practitioners of urban
planning, but also policy makers, developers, architects,
engineers, and anyone interested in the broader issues of urbanism.
