Evaluative governance for climate action in Australia
Patch urbanism
Despite structuring most of the urban world today, the deep history and long-term relationship between agricultural and urban spaces has been overlooked and undervalued in the Urbanocene. This article introduces a novel theory and method we term ‘patch urbanism’ to explore long-term relationships between settlement form and productive agricultural landscapes. We highlight the significance of such relationships in structuring extended urban region…
Towards intergenerational neutrality in urban planning and governance
In urban studies, ‘presentism’ – the prioritisation of present-day concerns at the expense of historical and future considerations – has emerged as a critical bias that is rarely challenged, either through governance structures, institutional frameworks and urban planning and design, or as the ethical basis for our communities and social relations. From the vantage of the historical social sciences, we problematise applications of presentism with…
Growth and decline of a sustainable city
The New Urban Agenda’s call for long-term visions in urban planning fails to recognise that ‘long-term’ implies different longevities depending on context of assessment. Compared to other social sciences, archaeological approaches add rigour to envisioning urban sustainability over several centuries and millennia. The archaeology of the pre-Columbian Lowland Maya urban tradition is an interesting case because data have been used to support confli…
Miyawaki forests-in-the-making
In recent years growing numbers of fast-growing 'mini forests' have been planted around the world using an approach for rapid urban greening known as the 'Miyawaki method'. Originating in Japan, the Miyawaki method was first developed as a relatively novel ecological engineering approach to the afforestation of industrial and degraded landscapes. However, in recent years escalating climate impacts and loss of biodiversity has inspired a new gener…
The critical role of community networks in building everyday resilience – Insights from the urban villages of Surabaya
What makes a successful Sponge City project? Expert perceptions of critical factors in integrated urban water management in the Asia-Pacific
A Long-Term Archaeological Reappraisal of Low-Density Urbanism
Dispersed, low-density urbanism has conventionally been considered as a unique consequence of industrialization and factors such as mechanized transport. Pre-industrial urbanism by contrast, has been perceived almost entirely in terms of compact densely inhabited cities with a strong differentiation between an urban and a rural populace. Evidence demonstrates, low-density settlements were a notable feature of the agrarian-urban world, especially …
Urban megaprojects and water justice in Southeast Asia
Within the Southeast Asian context, urban megaprojects are often delivered in aquatic or semi-aquatic contexts, transforming local hydrological systems used for sanitation, agriculture, sustenance, resource use and cultural purposes by the local populations. This paper addresses a key knowledge gap on the impacts of urban megaprojects on water security and water-related human rights in Southeast Asia through a literature review, field observation…
Implementing citizen centric technology in developing smart cities
Breaking down the silos through geodesign – Envisioning Sydney’s urban future
One of the challenges in creating plans for sustainable urban futures is the ability to work across government agencies and to break down traditional barriers to truly collaborative planning. Typically, metropolitan planning has been carried out by different agencies that are separate in their mandate and planning strategies. This siloed approach to city planning means there are problems in the coordination and sequencing of critical projects. To…
Urban innovation through policy integration
Introduction
Designs of Kings and Farmers
Greater Angkor was the capital of the Khmer Empire from the ninth to the fourteenth centuries a.d. The rulers of Angkor left behind magnificent temples, along with extensive, centrally planned landscapes and massive urban complexes. However, the landscape of Greater Angkor also represents a decentralized planning tradition. This article addresses the different scales of economic landscapes at Greater Angkor: from massive rice-field superstructure…
