The post-suburban era comes to Richmond: City decline, suburban transition, and exurban growth

A multi-scale analysis of urban form and commuting change in a small metropolitan area (1990–2000)

“…other features collectively described as 'urban sprawl' have poured into once rural settings (Lucy and Phillips 1997, Handy 2005, Tsai 2005). Yet at the same time localities have attempted to curb such suburban and exurban growth by redirecting new development to older centralized locations, which has breathed new life into many traditional city centers (Abbott 1997, Breheny 1997, Jun 2004, Song 2005.…”

Because of this dynamism, urban growth issues, especially the spatial nature of recent urban development and its implications for travel patterns have received a great deal of attention (Ewing 1995, Crane 1996, Lucy and Phillips 1997, Anas et al 1998, Freeman 2001, Sultana 2002, Rouwendal and Nijkamp 2004, Schwanen et al 2004a, Handy 2005, Tsai 2005). …”

On the road to the in-between city: Excavating peripheral urbanisation in Chicago’s ‘Crosstown Corridor’

“…Now classic accounts of 'technoburbs' (Fishman, 1987), 'edge cities' (Garreau, 1991;Teaford, 1997), 'ethnoburbs' (Li, 2009), 'metroburbia' (Knox, 2008), and 'exopolis' (Soja, 2000) have inspired ambitious comparative research on 'global suburbanisms' (Hamel and Keil, 2015;Keil, 2013) and 'post-suburbanization' (Phelps et al, 2010;Phelps and Wu, 2011). Here, the notion of post-suburbia captures the sense of an incremental shift from previous suburban processes and the emergence of a new mode of urbanization that breaks from our traditional views of the relationship between the metropolis and its core (Lucy and Phillips, 1997). The dual task of refocusing the analytical lens of critical urban studies beyond the inner city and sublating reified urban-versus-suburban dichotomies has become ever more pressing in the face of evolving patterns of sociospatial polarization, the rising suburbanization of poverty, and the emergence of heterogeneous suburban experiences (Keil, 2013;Schafran, 2013).…”

A budapesti várostérségi periféria földrajzi átalakulásának folyamatai

“…Az összefoglalóan posztszuburbanizációként nevezett folyamat a periférikus területek globális termelésbe történő fokozódó bekapcsolódását írja le (Keil-Young, 2011;Lucy-Philips, 1997;Brake, 2001;Bose, 2001;Brake et al, 2005;Bontje-Burdack, 2011). Ennek során a neoliberális gazdaság szereplői egyre nagyobb arányban választanak maguknak telephelyet a metropolisztérség központi városán kívül.…”

“…Maga a kifejezés az egydimenziós szuburbán mozgásokat meghaladó összetettségre utal, amelyet egyre több nagyvárosi régióban azonosítottak (Lucy-Philips, 1997). Európában a településhálózati adottságok, a hagyományok és nem utolsó szempontként maga a tervezés okozott eltéréseket az amerikai posztfordi urbanizációhoz képest.…”
