The problems faced by urban Australia have become more pressing in
recent years. Decisions made by past governments on housing
regulations, planning procedures and public transport have shaped
today's urban Australia. Now, with urban sprawl leading to inherent
car dependence and placing increasing demand on government
services, the decision-making process - in all three tiers of
government - is under trial and has sometimes been found inadequate
or unresponsive. The negative environmental impact of cities, the
need for global competitiveness, and declining standards in the
quality of city life have added to the urgency of the debate.
Edited by Patrick Troy, Professor of Urban Research at the
Australian National University, Australian Cities describes the
options and limitations of Australian urban planning practice. It
is a book of interest to students and academics in urban studies,
political science, sociology, town planning and public policy, as
well as policy-makers and professionals.
