In Don't Call It Sprawl, the current policy debate over urban
sprawl is put into a broader analytical and historical context. The
book informs people about the causes and implications of the
changing metropolitan structure rather than trying to persuade them
to adopt a panacea to all perceived problems. Bogart explains
modern economic ideas about the structure of metropolitan areas to
people interested in understanding and influencing the pattern of
growth in their city. Much of the debate about sprawl has been
driven by a fundamental lack of understanding of the structure,
functioning, and evolution of modern metropolitan areas. The book
analyzes ways in which suburbs and cities (trading places) trade
goods and services with each other. This approach helps us better
understand commuting decisions, housing location, business
location, and the impact of public policy in such areas as downtown
redevelopment and public school reform.
