This book provides a comparative analysis of shrinking cities in a
broad range of postsocialist countries within the so-called Global
East, a liminal space between North and South. While shrinking
cities have received increased scholarly attention in the past
decades, theoretical, and empirical research has remained
predominantly centered on the Global North. This volume brings to
the fore a range of new perspectives on urban shrinkage,
identifying commonalities, differences, and policy experiences
across a very diverse and vivid region with its various legacies
and contemporary controversial developments. With chapters written
by leading experts in the field, insider views assist in
decolonizing urban theory. Specifically, the book includes chapters
on shrinking cities in China, Russia, and postsocialist Europe,
presenting comparative discussions within countries and
crossnational cases on theoretical and policy implications. The
book will be of interest to students and scholars researching urban
studies, urban geography, urban planning, urban politics and
policy, urban sociology, and urban development.
