Der Atlas der schrumpfenden Stdte gibt erstmals einen weltweiten
berblick zu diesem wichtigen Thema heutiger Stadtentwicklung:
Welche Stdte schrumpfen? Wo benden sich diese Stdte? Wel-che
Prozesse liegen der Schrumpfung zugrunde? Auf 160 Seiten zei-gen 28
Weltkarten, zahlreiche Statistiken und 16 lexikalische Essays das
globale Phnomen schrumpfender Stdte auf, dessen Ursachen von
demograschen Entwicklungen und Migrationsstrmen ber
Res-sourcenverknappung und Umweltzerstrungen bis zu Vernderungen
der Siedlungsformen reichen. 40 Fallbeispiele schrumpfender Stdte
aus allen Kontinenten veranschaulichen die komplexen Ursachen und
konkreten Auswirkungen der globalen Transformationsprozesse.
The Atlas of Shrinking Cities provides the rst comprehensive and
global overview of this critical urban development of our times:
Which cities are shrinking? Where are these cities? What are the
processes that underlie shrinkage? In its 160 pages the atlas
pre-sents 28 world maps, numerous statistics, and 16 lexical essays
that document the global phenomenon of shrinking cities, the causes
of which range from demographic developments and migration
pat-terns to shortages of resources, ecocide, and changes in
settlement types. 40 case studies of shrinking cities on all of the
continents illustrate the complex causes and concrete effects of
global pro-cesses of transformation.
