Abstract

Contributors: E. Ben-Joseph, B. Blaesser, J. DeVillars, H. Gantt, D. Hayden, J. Kayden, A. Krieger, G. Matthews, W. Mitchell, A. Nelson, T. Weiskel

What smart growth is and how it should direct our future planning and development remain confusing to many observers, including decision makers in the public arena who must learn a new vocabulary and offer more than rhetoric to citizens hungry for strong policy, planning and design solutions. Whether one sees smart growth as a slogan, a catch phrase, a call to the barricades or perhaps even the battle flag waved by the enemy, it raises many questions that we need to answer. The chapters in this book offer eclectic and wide-ranging essays that take the reader through the history of suburban growth to the spatial and temporal consequences of the current state and stages of growth and technological change, and across the normative assumptions about design, urban and suburban neglect and revival, private versus public property rights, and environmental ethics.
