This timely Research Handbook examines the evolution of smart
growth over the past three decades, mapping the trajectory from its
original principles to its position as an important paradigm in
urban planning today. Critically analysing the original concept of
smart growth and how it has been embedded in state and local plans,
contributions from top scholars in the field illustrate what smart
growth has accomplished since its conception, as well as to what
extent it has achieved its goals. Providing an overview of the
history of smart growth, the book further examines its changing
governance over time, and the new horizons for smart growth,
exploring ways to confront contemporary challenges in urban
planning. Illuminating key issues in the field, from urban sprawl
to gentrification, that the original principles failed to address,
this insightful Handbook advocates for the expansion of smart
growth principles to meet the emerging challenges of the modern
world, concluding with an agenda for a "smart growth 2.0".
Informative and comprehensive, this Handbook will prove to be
essential reading for researchers, academics and students of urban
planning. Its proposals for the future evolution of smart growth
will also serve as an accessible and up-to-date reference point for
urban planning professionals, activists and policymakers.

This book examines the relationship between migration,
diversification and inequality in Aotearoa/New Zealand. The authors
advance a view of migration as a diversifying force, arguing that
it is necessary to grapple with the intersection of group
identities, state policy and economic opportunities as part of the
formation of inequalities that have deep historical legacies and
substantial future implications. Exploring evidence for inequality
amongst migrant populations, the book also addresses the role of
multicultural politics and migration policy in entrenching
inequalities, and the consequences of migrant inequalities for
political participation, youth development and urban life.
