Land Markets in African Cities: The Case of Peri-urban Accra, Ghana
Urban Studies - Tập 37 Số 13 - Trang 2485-2500 - 2000
Katherine V. Gough, Paul W. K. Yankson
Land markets in African cities are characterised by the co-existence of different modes of supply that originate from the different stages of their development. Customary land tenure remains important in many of these cities, although its future is widely disputed. This paper discusses the implications of the co-existence of customary land tenure and state involvement in the land market i...... hiện toàn bộ
Can Land-use Policy Really Affect Travel Behaviour? A Study of the Link between Non-work Travel and Land-use Characteristics
Urban Studies - Tập 35 Số 7 - Trang 1155-1169 - 1998
Marlon G. Boarnet, Sharon Sarmiento
Planners are increasingly viewing land-use policy as a way to manage transport demand. Yet the evidence on the link between land use and travel behaviour is inconclusive. This paper uses travel diary data for southern California residents to examine the link between land-use patterns at the neighbourhood level and non-work trip generation for a sample of 769 individuals. The number of non...... hiện toàn bộ
Smartmentality: The Smart City as Disciplinary Strategy
Urban Studies - Tập 51 Số 5 - Trang 883-898 - 2014
Alberto Vanolo
The paper analyses the concept of the smart city in critical perspective, focusing on the power/knowledge implications for the contemporary city. On the one hand, smart city policies support new ways of imagining, organising and managing the city and its flows; on the other, they impress a new moral order on the city by introducing specific technical parameters in order to distinguish bet...... hiện toàn bộ
USA's Destiny? Regulating Space and Creating Community in American Shopping Malls
Urban Studies - Tập 43 Số 5-6 - Trang 977-992 - 2006
Lynn A. Staeheli, Don Mitchell
In North American cities, shopping malls are heralded as the new town square. Historically, the town square was a place where diverse people came together and where politics, economics and sociability were intermingled. However, shopping centres, which are separated from the old downtown by distance or design, seem for many people to be the new heart of public and social life. It is argue...... hiện toàn bộ
Imagine all the Neighbours: Perceived Neighbourhood Ethnicity, Interethnic Friendship Ties and Perceived Ethnic Threat in Four Nordic Countries
Urban Studies - Tập 50 Số 16 - Trang 3305-3322 - 2013
Antti Kouvo, Carita Lockmer
The aim of the article is to analyse the impact of the self-evaluated ethnic composition of the place of residence on interethnic contacts and attitudes through the comparison of four Nordic countries. Data come from the European Social Survey 2002. Compared with ethnically homogeneous neighbourhoods, interethnic relationships are more common in ethnically mixed neighbourhoods with some s...... hiện toàn bộ
Housing Tenure Choice in Transitional Urban China: A Multilevel Analysis
Urban Studies - Tập 39 Số 1 - Trang 7-32 - 2002
Youqin Huang, William A. V. Clark
Using a 1996 national survey of housing in China and a multilevel modelling technique, we examine housing tenure choice in transitional urban China where households have been granted limited freedom of choice in the housing market since the housing reforms of 1988. We find that both market mechanisms and institutional forces affect households' tenure choice in urban China. While some soci...... hiện toàn bộ
Commercial Housing Development in Urban China
Urban Studies - Tập 36 Số 9 - Trang 1475-1494 - 1999
Ya Ping Wang, Alan Murie
Housing privatisation has been one of key features of reform during the 1980s and the 1990s in many countries. Chinese housing reform has attracted attention because of its distinctive features and there have been a number of commentaries on the general progress of urban housing reform policies. However, there has been no systematic study of the development of commercial housing in Chines...... hiện toàn bộ
Ethnic differences in activity spaces as a characteristic of segregation: A study based on mobile phone usage in Tallinn, Estonia
Urban Studies - Tập 52 Số 14 - Trang 2680-2698 - 2015
Olle Järv, Kerli Müürisepp, Rein Ahas, Ben Derudder, Frank Witlox
Given ongoing developments altering social and spatial cohesion in urban societies, a more comprehensive understanding of segregation is needed. Taking the ‘mobilities turn’ at heart, we move beyond place-based segregation approaches and focus on the practised urban experiences of individuals through a more comprehensive assessment of their activity spaces. This study contributes to peopl...... hiện toàn bộ
Influence of Urban Form on Travel Behaviour in Four Neighbourhoods of Shanghai
Urban Studies - Tập 46 Số 2 - Trang 275-294 - 2009
Haixiao Pan, Qing Shen, Ming Zhang
Since the 1980s, much of the new urban development in China has departed significantly from the traditional pedestrian and bicycle-oriented urban form. This study examines the effects of the urban spatial transformation on travel, based on a travel survey of 1709 individuals from four selected neighbourhoods of Shanghai. Although pedestrian/ cyclist-friendly urban form may not avert the g...... hiện toàn bộ
