商品簡介
Scholars of architecture, public policy, business, economics, and urban studies explore urban dynamics in an open-space economy. Focusing on various geographical areas in the world and the use of new methodological tools, they cover urban creativity and growth; cities, innovation, and productivity; and urban systems infrastructure, and sustainable development. Their topics include agglomeration economies and smart cities, the multi-actor analysis of metropolitan performance indicators, cities as seedbeds of responsible innovation, an accessibility index for the metropolitan region of Sao Paulo, and theory and practice of how cities should manage economic development.
