GOVERNING COMPACT CITIES

Governing Compact Cities investigates how governments and other critical actors organise to enable compact urban growth, combining h igher urban densities, mixed use and urban design quality with more walkable and public transport-oriented urban development. Philip p Rode draws on empirical evidence from London and Berlin to examine how urban policymakers, professionals and stakeholders have wor ked across disciplinary silos, geographic scales and different time horizons since the early 1990s.
