Пълно описание

In a world that expects cities to fuel economic growth and attract millions of people every year, there's something unnerving about the phrase "shrinking cities." But thousands of cities are getting smaller, leaving vacant homes, abandoned factories, and oversized infrastructure. Shrinking cities pose a new problem for urban planners: how to manage the transition to fewer residents with a tool kit designed for expansion. Urbanist Fernando Ortiz-Moya argues that instead of chasing regrowth, cities can embrace their smaller size and build on their unique character and history to enhance life for those who remain. We're Still Here contrasts official responses to shrinkage with spontaneous bottom-up actions led by traditionally marginalized residents in the cities of Pittsburgh, Manchester, and Kitakyushu. These stories show how decline becomes a springboard for social and physical (re)construction and justice-driven urbanism—revealing both the limits of pro-growth planning and the seeds of a new approach that he calls "(Re)City-Making." Far from a cautionary tale, this book makes a convincing case for the shrinking city as a laboratory for innovative, people-centered urban policy and collective empowerment.
