Overpopulation, resource scarcity and climate change are just a few of the many issues casting a shadow on the future. Now that the world is entering an 'urban age', if the eco-city is, or is about to become a paradigm of city-making, it is time to evaluate this model. To date, there are very few empirical studies exploring how ideas of the eco-city are cultivated and implemented, particularly with regards to projects for new master-planned eco-cities. This book draws upon contributions from urban history, geography and environmental philosophy to contextualize the emergence of eco-city projects. Through a wide range of international case studies, the book sheds light on the ideas and practices that underpin their implementation. This book reveals what urban equations eco-city developers are formulating and theoretically pushes the boundaries of knowledge in sustainable urban development by proposing alternative formulas of eco-city-making. | Frankenstein Urbanism by Federico Cugurullo, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
