North American gated communities, African squatter settlements,
European housing estates, and Chinese urban villages all share one
thing in common: they represent types of suburban space. As
suburban growth becomes the dominant urban process of the
twenty-first century, its governance poses an increasingly pressing
set of global challenges. In Suburban Governance: A Global View,
editors Pierre Hamel and Roger Keil have assembled a groundbreaking
set of essays by leading urban scholars that assess how governance
regulates the creation of the world's suburban spaces and everyday
life within them. With contributors from ten countries on five
continents, this collection covers the full breadth of contemporary
developments in suburban governance. Examining the classic North
American model of suburbia, contemporary alternatives in Europe and
Latin America, and the emerging suburbanisms of Africa and Asia,
Suburban Governance offers a strong analytical introduction to a
vital topic in contemporary urban studies.
