Developing the compact city

该项目旨在调查澳大利亚最大城市高密度多单元住宅开发部门的运营情况。该项目打算利用理论方法来理解城市进程的政治经济学和创新的精细分析技术。预期结果包括对澳大利亚城市高密度转型背后的开发商及其与土地利用规划系统的关系的新颖分析，该系统通过价值提升促进了这一过程。所产生的知识旨在使规划决策者受益，并通过阐明当前驱动住房供应的关键因素背后的基本原理，为有关当代城市变化的更广泛的公众辩论提供信息。

This project aims to investigate the operation of the higher density multi-unit residential development sector in Australia’s largest city. The project intends to draw on theoretical approaches to understanding the political economy of urban processes and innovative fine-grain analytical techniques. Expected outcomes include a novel analysis of the developers behind the higher density transformation of urban Australia and their relationship to the land use planning system that facilitates this process via value uplift. The knowledge generated is intended to benefit planning policy makers and inform wider public debates on contemporary urban change by elucidating the rationale behind the key actors’ currently driving housing supply.
