Humane and Sustainable Smart Cities

Humane and Sustainable Smart Cities explores how to develop emergent smart cities that are rooted in humane, innovative and sustainable values (CHIS). The book considers the move from technocratic and idealized smart metropole to humane cities as a product of fundamental demographic changes, the development of a usage-based rather than an ownership economy, the novel implications of digitalization, decentralization and decarbonization, and Internet-enabled changes in public opinion towards democratization and participation. The book's authors explore seven dimensions and characteristics of humane, sustainable and innovative cities in the developing world: the economy, people, the place, energy and the environment, mobility, social inclusion and governance.

Additional sections the operationalization of the CHIS concept into formal planning, policy implementation, and impact assessment considerations. Final discussions center on building a roadmap for planners seeking to design development policies conducive to human values and long-term social viability.

Orase inteligente umane si durabile exploreaza modul de a dezvolta orase inteligente emergente care au radacini in valori umane, inovatoare si durabile (CHIS). Cartea considera trecerea de la metropola inteligenta tehnocratica si idealizata la orasele umane ca un produs al schimbarilor demografice fundamentale, al dezvoltarii unei economii mai degraba bazate pe utilizare decat in cea a proprietatii, implicatiile noi ale digitalizarii, descentralizarii si decarbonizarii si ale schimbarilor permise de Internet in opinia publica spre democratizare si participare.
