International Journal of Urban Sustainable Development

期刊简介：International Journal of Urban Sustainable Development aims to provide a forum for cutting-edge research and rigorous debate for an in-depth and holistic understanding of the complex inter-related environmental, social, economic, political, spatial, institutional and physical challenges facing urban areas. Its premise is that multi-disciplinary approaches provide the space for the range of disciplines and perspectives related to the full breadth of issues that affect urban sustainable development. The journal also aims to enhance knowledge and understanding of the two-way interactions between urbanisation processes and patterns and environmental changes at the local, regional, and global scales. In addition to mitigation and adaptation concerns, these interactions also include related social and economic issues, such as the impacts of globalisation and financial crises, evidence-based liveability versus utopian, or purely theoretical, planning principles, restoring dignity to the marginalized beyond, but including, the basic principles of participation, environmental justice and sustainable resource utilisation. The Journal, thus, seeks to connect theory and practice in ways that are useful to academics, policy makers, community activists and professionals, in line with Sustainable Development Goal 11, which promotes Sustainable Cities and Communities. In addition, the Journal's remit also encompasses other SDGs, in particular those relating to climate action, access to clean water and sanitation, access to affordable and clean energy, decent work, poverty alleviation, equality and health and well being. International Journal of Urban Sustainable Development is fully peer reviewed. It publishes original research and review papers. It also includes important think pieces and position papers by prominent scholars and practitioners in the broader field of urban sustainable environmental, economic, social (political) and cultural development. It has a global reach covering cities and towns of different sizes, cultures and economies in the North and the South. It strives to bring together views and experience from industrially developed, developing and transition countries for mutual learning. Authors from developing and transition economies in particular are encouraged to submit papers.
