Moving from conventional narratives on urbanization and suburbanization in Europe, this book provides readers with a fresh perspective on Mediterranean sprawl, exploring apparent and latent correlations with land use patterns, climate dynamics, ecological concerns, housing paradigms, and welfare regimes, societal and demographic transformations, (local) governance structures, and deficiencies in spatial planning. From the fringes of metropolitan landscapes to the intricate mosaic of urban-rural interfaces, each chapter offers a nuanced examination of the forces driving spatial transformation. The outcome of the book aims to furnish an integrated understanding of spatial divides between cities and their surrounding territories beyond mere academic discourse.
