This book draws on a wide range of conceptual and empirical
materials to identify and examine planning and policy approaches
that move beyond the imperative of perpetual economic growth. It
sketches out a path towards planning theories and practices that
can break the cyclical process of urban expansion, crises, and
recovery that negatively affect ecosystems and human lives. To
reduce the dramatic social and environmental impact of
urbanization, this book offers both a critique of growth-led urban
development and a prefiguration of ecologically regenerative and
socially just ways of organizing cities and regions. It uncovers
emerging possibilities for post-growth planning in the fields of
collective housing, mobility, urban commoning, ecological land-use,
urban-rural symbiosis, and alternative planning worldviews. It
provides a toolkit of concepts and real-life examples for urban
scholars, urbanists, activists, architects, and designers seeking
to make cities prosper within planetary boundaries. This book
speaks to both experts and beginners in post-growth thinking. It
concludes with a manifesto and glossary of key terms for urban
scholars, students, and practitioners.
