This fascinating book explains the processes of suburbanization
in the context of post-socialist societies transitioning from one
system of socio-spatial order to another. Case studies of seven
Central and Eastern Europe city regions illuminate growth patterns
and key conditions for the emergence of sprawl.
* Breaks new ground, offering a systematic approach to the
analysis of the global phenomenon of suburbanization in a
post-socialist context
* Tracks the boom of the post-socialist suburbs in seven CEE
capital city regions – Budapest, Ljubljana, Moscow, Prague,
Sofia, Tallinn, and Warsaw
* Situates the experience of the CEE countries in the broader
context of global urban change
* Case studies examine the phenomenon of suburbanization along
four main vectors of analysis related to development patterns,
driving forces, consequences and impacts, and management of
suburbanization
* Highlights the critical importance of public policies and
planning on the spread of suburbanization
