As rivers have shaped human settlement patterns, economies, culture and rituals, so too have humans impacted the flow and health of rivers. In Asia, the sheer scale of urbanization increases the urgency of addressing challenges facing urban rivers, leading to the importance of historically, socially, and culturally relevant solutions. However, cities are also uneven landscapes of power, affecting chances to achieve holistic ecological approaches. The central premise of River Cities in Asia is that a ?river city? is one where proximity between a river and a city exists across time and space, natural and social dimensions. Recognition of these deep connections can help to better contextualize policy solutions aimed at rivers and their ecologies, including human life. 410 0$aAsian Cities Series 606 $aCities and towns$zAsia 606 $aARCHITECTURE / Urban & Land Use Planning$2bisacsh 610 $aRiver cities, Southeast Asia, development. 615 0$aCities and towns 615 7$aARCHITECTURE / Urban & Land Use Planning. 676 $a307.76095 702 $aCoelho$b Karen, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aDamayanti$b Vera D., $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aDick$b Howard, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aFollmann$b Alexander, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aGuahk$b Youngah, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aKanungo$b Pralay, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aLiao$b Kuei-Hsien, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aPadawangi$b Rita, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aPadawangi$b Rita, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPerkasa$b Adrian, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aPerkasa$b Adrian, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPrescott$b Michaela F., $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aRabé$b , $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aRabé$b Paul, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aStein$b Emma Natalya, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aZhao$b Xiaomei, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996500672503316 996 $aRiver Cities in Asia$92984726 997 $aUNISA
