Description
Modern cities tend to produce a uniform urban landscape, erasing the local values that have long been rooted in their communities. The overwhelming dominance of modern perspectives has also disregarded the cultural diversity of urban populations worldwide. At the same time, biodiversity is being eroded by increasingly large-scale urban activities. These three challenges can be summarized as the loss of urban diversity, the loss of human diversity, and the loss of biodiversity. Although these issues may seem unrelated, the authors of this book creatively interconnect them and offer integrated solutions.
By focusing on biotic elements, this book introduces a groundbreaking perspective on urban identity studies. It bridges theory and practice in urban planning.
