Cities across the world are trying to manage their population and economic growth by implementing the design principles of Smart Growth and New Urbanism, which includes developing green buildings that are compact, mixed-use, and in close proximity to transit services. How do innovators, governments, and markets interact in this planning and development process? The book profiles smart growth entrepreneurs and their projects in both Southern California and the suburbs of Portland, Oregon. The author highlights the unique obstacles, political and economic, that these actors encounter and details the centrality of markets and regulations in sustainable urban development.Social sciencesSociology, UrbanUrban geographyEnvironmental sociologyEnvironmental policySocial Sciences, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X00000Urban Studies/Sociologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22250Urban Geography / Urbanism (inc. megacities, cities, towns)https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15010Environmental Sociologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22160Environmental Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X33040Social sciences.Sociology, Urban.Urban geography.Environmental sociology.Environmental policy.Social Sciences, general.Urban Studies/Sociology.Urban Geography / Urbanism (inc. megacities, cities, towns).Environmental Sociology.Environmental Policy.300Nielsen Erik Solevadauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1061475BOOK9910155308603321Smart Growth Entrepreneurs2518903UNINA
