This interdisciplinary theoretical formulation details how smart city transitions unfold and how they should be conceptualized and enacted in order to be assembled as sustainable developments. The proposed theory of sustainable smart city transitions is then enriched by the findings of investigations into the planning and implementation of smart city transition strategies and projects. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFocusing on different empirical settings, change dimensions, and analytical elements, the attention moves from the sociotechnical requirements of citywide transition pathways to the development of sector-specific smart city projects and technological innovations, in particular in the fields of urban mobility and urban governance. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book represents a relevant reference work for academic and practitioner audiences, policy makers, and representative of smart city industries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the \u003ci\u003eJournal of Urban Technology.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLuca Mora\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Urban Innovation at The Business School of Edinburgh Napier University, Scotland, UK, and at the Academy of Architecture and Urban Studies of Tallinn University of Technology (TalTech), Estonia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMark Deakin is Professor of Built Environment at the School of Engineering and the Built Environment of Edinburgh Napier University, Scotland, UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eXiaoling Zhang is Professor in the Department of Public Policy of City University of Hong Kong, China.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMichael Batty is Bartlett Professor of Planning at University College London, where he chairs the Centre for Advanced Spatial Analysis (CASA).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMartin de Jong is Professor at Erasmus School of Law and Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University Rotterdam, The Netherlands, and a Distinguished Visiting Professor at Fudan University, Shanghai, China.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePaolo Santi is Principal Research Scientist at Senseable City Lab, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, USA, and Research Director of the Institute of Informatics and Telematics, National Research Council, Pisa, Italy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrancesco Paolo Appio is Associate Professor of Innovation at SKEMA Business School, France.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 308\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.68 x 9.69 x 6.85 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 29, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48458442539256,"sku":"9781032071657","price":96.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0698\/5629\/7208\/files\/GztMTzaKLP9781032071657.webp?v=1781593641","url":"https:\/\/barneysbooksellers.com\/products\/sustainable-smart-city-transitions-theoretical-foundations-sociotechnical-assemblage-and-governance-mechanisms-paperback","provider":"Barney's Book Sellers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
