The Routledge Handbook of Comparative Global Urban Studies is a
timely intervention into the field of global urban studies, coming
as comparison is being more widely used as a method for global
urban studies, and as a number of methodological experiments and
comparative research projects are being brought to fruition. It
consolidates and takes forward an emerging field within urban
studies and makes a positive and constructive intervention into a
lively arena of current debate in urban theory. Comparative
urbanism injects a welcome sense of methodological rigor and a
commitment to careful evaluation of claims across different
contexts, which will enhance current debates in the field. Drawing
together at least 50 international scholars and practitioners, this
book offers an overview of key ideas and practices in the field and
extends current thinking and practice. The book is primarily
intended for scholars and graduate students for whom it will
provide an invaluable and up-to-date guide to current thinking
across the range of disciplines which converge in the study of
urbanism, including geography, sociology, planning, and urban
studies.
