The New Companion to Urban Design
Editat de Tridib Banerjee, Anastasia Loukaitou-Siderisen Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 ian 2023
The essays in this volume are organized in three parts: Part I: Comparative Urbanism; Part II: Challenges; and Part III: Opportunities. Each part contains distinct sections designed to address specific themes, and includes a list of annotated suggested further readings at the end of each chapter. Part I: Comparative Urbanism examines different variants of urbanism in the Global North and the Global South, produced by a new economic order characterized by the mobility of labor, capital, information, and technology. Part II: Challenges discusses some of the contemporary challenges that cities of the Global North and the Global South are facing and the possible role of urban design. This part discusses spatial claims and conflicts, challenges generated by urban informality, explosive growth or dramatic shrinkage of the urban settlement, gentrification and displacement, and mimesis, simulacra and lack of authenticity. Part III: Aspirations discusses some normative goals that urban design interventions aspire to bring about in cities of the Global North and the Global South. These include resilience and sustainability, health, conservation/restoration, justice, intelligence, access and mobility, and arts and culture.
The New Companion to Urban Design is primarily intended for scholars and graduate students interested in cities and their built environment. It offers an invaluable and up-to-date guide to current thinking across a range of disciplines including urban design, planning, urban studies, and geography.

Recenzii
"This new collection takes us on a journey in two senses, first through the complexities, compromises and challenges that is contemporary urban design, and second, across the diverse approaches that we find globally to address these concerns. The result is a fascinating collage of contributions which attests to the growing richness of scholarship in our field. I warmly recommend the volume to practitioners, students and researchers alike." - Matthew Carmona, Professor of Planning & Urban Design, The Bartlett, UCL, UK
"The New Companion to Urban Design is an essential follow-up volume to the Companion to Urban Design published in 2011. It opens two essential windows, one to the Southern Hemisphere, where urban design is facing other challenges than in the Anglo-American world, and one to the field of digitalisation that will definitively change the context of urban design. This widened scope and the well-balanced comparative perspective the volume offers will certainly win a wider readership. Particularly urban planners in China will benefit from the well-written essays of this wide-ranging companion." - Klaus R. Kunzmann, Professor Emeritus, School of Planning, Technical University of Dortmund, Germany

The New Companion to Urban Design continues the assemblage of critical ideas about urban form and design that began with the Companion to Urban Design. With contributions from a new set of contributors this sequel offers a more comparative perspective representing multiple voices and perspectives from the Global South.
