Description: Reconstructing Urban Economics by Franklin Obeng-odoom Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description A substantial and much-needed contribution to urban economics, providing both a critique of the mainstream and a compass for alternatives. Publisher Description Neoclassical economics, the intellectual bedrock of modern capitalism, faces growing criticisms, as many of its key assumptions and policy prescriptions are systematically challenged. Yet, there remains one field of economics where these limitations continue virtually unchallenged: the study of cities and regions in built-environment economics. In this book, Franklin Obeng-Odoom draws on institutional, Georgist and Marxist economics to clearly but comprehensively show what the key issues are today in thinking about urban economics. In doing so, he demonstrates the widespread tensions and contradictions in the status quo, showing how to reconstruct urban economics in order to create a more just society and environment. Author Biography Franklin Obeng-Odoom teaches urban economics at the School of Built Environment, University of Technology Sydney (UTS) in Australia. He is an International Social Science Council world social science fellow in sustainable urbanisation. Franklin was elected to the Fellowship of the Ghana Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2015, becoming the countrys youngest fellow. In 2016, he won the Patrick Welch prize awarded by the Association for Social Economics.
