It proposes a new approach that rethinks neo-liberalism as the meta-theory of planning in Africa, and pioneers an original school of thought that presents a general theory of planning for Africa in the twenty-first century. Research to substantiate the new theory was conducted over the period November 2010 to May 2015 and is presented here in four sections with more than 500 references. The book offers comprehensive coverage, from the theoretical foundations and framework, through application and empirical research, to analysis, conclusions and recommendations. 410 0$aThe Urban Book Series,$x2365-757X 606 $aRegional planning 606 $aUrban planning 606 $aCulture?Study and teaching 606 $aUrban economics 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aLandscape/Regional and Urban Planning$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15000 606 $aRegional and Cultural Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411000 606 $aUrban Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W49010 606 $aSustainable Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000 615 0$aRegional planning. 615 0$aUrban planning. 615 0$aCulture?Study and teaching. 615 0$aUrban economics. 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 14$aLandscape/Regional and Urban Planning. 615 24$aRegional and Cultural Studies. 615 24$aUrban Economics. 615 24$aSustainable Development. 676 $a307.1216096 700 $aOkeke$b Donald$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01062787 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254125403321 996 $aIntegrated Productivity in Urban Africa$92528563 997 $aUNINA
