Rethinking Urban Transport After Modernism : Lessons from South Africa EPUB
by David Dewar, Fabio Todeschini
EPUB
Description
For the last seven decades, urban settlement policy worldwide has been increasingly dominated by modernist precepts and by urban decisions made in discipline-specific ’silos’.
The urban management consequences have been invariably negative, with increasing sprawl, fragmentation and separation resulting in a wide range of environmental, social and economic problems.
This book explores the role of movement in a more integrated approach to urban settlement, and how thinking, policies and actions need to change.
South Africa is used as a particularly good case study, since patterns of sprawl, fragmentation and separation have been exacerbated by apartheid, while recent legislation has demanded a reversal of these tendencies.
