Housing adequacy in Delhi, Dhaka and Karachi
Access to adequate housing is one of the major challenges in the rapidly urbanising megacities of the Indian subcontinent. This study examines variations in housing adequacy and its determinants in Delhi, Dhaka and Karachi. It investigates potential planning interventions to improve housing conditions, drawing on urban policies, programmes and insights from Demographic and Health Surveys. Findings reveal severe housing inadequacy, with four out o…
Measuring Sustainable Urban Development
Sustainable development has become a global agenda that was institutionalized through the United Nations’ Millennium Declaration in 2000 and was later promoted by the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in 2015. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as part of the 2030 Agenda emerged as a comprehensive global framework for fostering universal development, with a vision of ‘leaving no one behind’. Both India and Germany are committed toward…
Spatio-temporal Assessment of Landscape Ecological Risk and Associated Drivers
Urbanization is considered as the key driver for land use and land cover (LULC) changes across the globe and Delhi is no exception to this phenomenon. The population of Delhi has almost doubled from 8.4 million in 1991 to 16.3 million in 2011. Correspondingly, the built-up area has also increased from 336.82 to 598.22 km 2 during 1999–2018. This urban expansion has led to emergence of serious ecological risk and fragmentation of the landscape. In…
Spatial Structures and Trends of Cities in Europe and Asia
Human civilization reached a milestone in the first decade of the 21st century, when the global urban population became higher than rural for the first time. However, the process of urbanisation is not uniform across the globe, and striking differences exist in the spatial structure and trends of urbanisation in developed and developing regions because of varying rates of demographic and economic growth. The success of Sustainable Development Goa…
Exploring Rural–Urban Inequality in India in the Post-economic Reform Period
Structural reforms were adopted by India in the early 1990s. Despite a slowdown in the major economies of the world due to global financial crisis in 2008–2009, Indian economy has consistently performed better and achieved a growth rate of 8–9 per cent in the past decade. The proponents of the economic reforms thus believe that the measures of structural adjustment would bring about economic growth and narrow down the rural–urban gap in India. In…
Urban Informality
The interest in planning theory, particularly focused on housing, and the need to explain a resurgence of the urban informal sector in First and Third World contexts within the framework of globalization have particularly influenced emerging research in this area. The dynamism exhibited by the Asian metropolises and their particular location in national economic and political trajectories result in specific contestations which are manifested spat…
City Profile
Madurai city, in the state of Tamil Nadu, is one of the ancient temple cities of India and has been existing since two millennia. It is the second largest city in terms of area and the third largest in terms of population in the state. Despite this, the city’s population and economy is shrinking. In 2010, the city’s boundary expanded to cover the entire urban agglomeration. But even after 9 years of integration, differences exist between the newl…
Urban Development Programmes in India
This article analyses the present urban development policies with a focus on the extent of equity in the delivery of basic services especially in the context of effectiveness of the programme of Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JnNURM). The programme was designed as a reform-linked investment mission to ensure financially sustainable development of the cities through efficient governance, better infrastructure and improved service…
