While shrinking cities have received increased scholarly attention in the past decades, theoretical, and empirical research has remained predominantly centered on the Global North. This volume brings to the fore a range of new perspectives on urban shrinkage, identifying commonalities, differences, and policy experiences across a very diverse and vivid region with its various legacies and contemporary controversial developments. With chapters written by leading experts in the field, insider views assist in decolonizing urban theory. Specifically, the book includes chapters on shrinking cities in China, Russia, and postsocialist Europe, presenting comparative discussions within countries and crossnational cases on theoretical and policy implications. The book will be of interest to students and scholars researching urban studies, urban geography, urban planning, urban politics and policy, urban sociology, and urban development.Routledge contemporary perspectives on urban growth, innovation, and change.Shrinking citiesPost-Socialist CitiesPost-Socialist Shrinking CitiesShrinking Cities AsiaShrinking Cities Chinashrinking citiesurban declineurban growthurban sprawlShrinking cities.307.76Wu Chung-Tongedt1356269Wu Chung-TongNjHacINjHaclBOOK9910566445403321Postsocialist shrinking cities3360598UNINA
