  • This paper reviews the literature on urban sustainability with the objective of drawing more attention to the social aspect of sustainability in urban planning. Given that social capital is a crucial component of moving towards more progressive smart cities and urban innovation, it is important to investigate the social dimension of sustainability and the opportunities that just cities can bring to improve the quality of life for urban dwellers. This paper is divided into three sections. The initial section provides an introduction to urban sustainability, discussing the historical roots of sustainability and sustainable development ideas, the three fundamental elements of sustainability, and the process of defining and measuring sustainability in an urban setting. Moving on to the second section, it delves into the body of work related to linking urban sustainability with urban strategies. The third section finally addresses the emergence of literature on just sustainability and just cities, which can give valuable insights to city policymakers who are trying to improve balanced sustainability.

  • The high rate of urban crime is a main issue that needs to be dealt with in this high-tech society. With the rapid increase of urban crime, research has mainly focused on topics either on a global or a local scale, such as cities or communities and houses or buildings, without reliable observational data. This study makes the best use of the nationwide surveys carried out by Korean government agencies for the analysis of urban crime patterns and factors in major Korean cities. The aims of this research are threefold: understanding the relationship between urban crime patterns and socio-economic differences in cities, determining the effect of residence types on the urban crime patterns; and uncovering potential influential factors of a crime victim's individual characteristics. The statistical methods used for the analysis of social statistical data are as follows: simple regression, logistic regression, one-way ANOVA and post-hoc test. This research found that the patterns of urban crime rate in cities have a certain tendency toward the cities' socio-economic and geographical differences. The residence type is an influential factor showing a close relation to the crime rate. Personal issues, such as the types of occupation, education, marriage, etc., are directly relevant to victims of crime.

  • The rapid industrialization since the 1960s has caused considerable changes in the appearance of Korean cities. The huge demand and cityward tendency derived from the increase of population with such the expansion from 9 millions in 1960 to 43 millions in 2003, have resulted in number of problems such as the falling-off in the quality of life, amenity, and safety. And above all, the urban identities is not to be found obviously in the cities. With regard to these problems, the re-creation of cities should be emphasized to make environmental, economical, and social improvements and to restore human-oriented activities. In the course of making new improvements cities need to preserve the characteristics and maintain the concordance with their environments. In other words, the restoration of cities ought to be made in the aspect of continuity, which means the accession of genetic factors inherent in cities. In this background, concerning about the system on apartment house especially relating to environmentally sound restoration and comparing with that of Japan, this study proposes the direction needed in the development of urban space.

  • With the rapid growth of high-tech, the development of cultural and creative industries has gradually become the focus of national industrial development. With the proposal of China's "Belt and Road" strategy, the role of cultural and creative industries in the provinces and cities along the "Belt and Road" in the entire international trade is becoming increasingly critical. It is necessary to explore solutions to improve the competitiveness of China's cultural and creative industries, factoring the surrounding cities of the "Belt and Road" as an example. Thus, this paper proposes the six-element diamond model based on innovation capability and government support to render a comprehensive evaluation of the competitiveness of the cultural and creative industries in the 31 provinces and cities across the country. The results show that the overall competitiveness of the 18 provinces and cities along the "Belt and Road" cultural and creative industries is weak. Focusing on the 18 provinces and cities along the "Belt and Road", using the linear regression measurement model quantitative analysis, the four types of influencing factors affecting the development of the competitiveness of cultural and creative industries along the "Belt and Road" were obtained. Finally, according to the four types of influence, the competitiveness improvement plan is proposed from the four aspects: government role, consumption preference, industrial innovation ability, and the introduction of high-quality talent.

  • Purpose: This paper aims to tackle the challenges and opportunities of cities' response to COVID-19 and provide cities with policy implications for better adapting to the post-pandemic era. Cities around the world are facing new challenges and have had to adapt to maintain social distancing measures while also addressing equity and social inclusion issues. Research design, data and methodology: The research methodology relies on an examination of existing literature, coupled with trend analysis employing discourse analysis to investigate post-pandemic urban resilience. The article also attempts to employ the concepts of adaptive urbanism and spatial flexibility and their potential to address these challenges not only in response to the pandemic, but also in the long-term. Results: The article explores the impact of COVID-19 on urban spatial structure through a public health lens and proposes actions that cities are able to take to enhance their resilience in the aftermath of the pandemic. Conclusions: It underscores the significance of reconstructing with improved distribution dynamics and provides valuable guidance for companies and policymakers on navigating these challenges. Ultimately, it also suggests that the pandemic has initiated a worldwide restructuring of urban planning, potentially leading to the emergence of smart cities grounded in science and technology.

  • 과거 도시경관의 목표가 범국가적으로 아름다운 도시 만들기였다면, 이제는 '살고 싶은 도시 만들기' 나아가 '나만의 도시 만들기'와 같은 각기 다른 도시 만들기가 도시 이미지 전략의 목표가 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 선진 사례들을 분석하여 도시 이미지 정책의 경향을 새롭게 정리함으로써 오늘날 우리나라 도시에 적합한 도시 이미지 개선 전략을 제안하였다. 본 연구에서 도출된 결과는 다음과 같이 요약될 수 있다. 1. 도시 이미지는 랜드마크의 수립이나 장소 만들기, 축제, 특산품 등 다양한 전략적 수단을 통해 개선될 수 있으며, 이러한 요인은 경관 생태적 요인, 역사 문화적 요인, 행정 경제적 요인으로 분류된다. 2. 우리나라 광역시들은 풍부한 재정지원을 통해 주로 산업기반 시설설치, 기업지원, 광고 및 마케팅 등의 행정 경제적 요인들을 활용하여 도시 이미지 전략을 수립하여 추진하고 있다. 반면, 지방 도시들은 축제와 같은 저비용으로 단기적인 효과가 가시적으로 나타나는 수단만을 주로 활용하고 있다. 결국 축제 본연의 취지와는 달리 특별한 경쟁력이나 지역 정체성의 반영 없는 단순한 흥미 위주의 프로그램만을 되풀이하고 있기 때문에 중앙정부 차원에서의 전체적인 마스터플랜 수립과 이를 기초로 지역적 균형을 고려한 고유의 다양한 도시 이미지 전략수단 마련이 요구된다. 3.서구의 주요 도시들은 시대적 변화에 맞추어 고유의 정체성을 살린 자체적인 도시 이미지 전략을 수립하여 추진함으로써 도시 이미지를 한층 업그레이드 하고 있다. 한편, 일본은 다른 구미의 선진국들과 달리 오랜 역사를 기반으로한 고유의 전통 문화를 도시 이미지 전략의 핵심 키워드로 구축하여 다양한 전통축제 및 마을가꾸기 등을 추진하고 있다. 특히 자치단체의 기획안에 따라 적극적인 주민들의 호응과 참여 속에서 구미 도시와는 다른 독특한 도시브랜딩 정책을 추진하고 있다. 오늘날 소득 20,000달러 시대를 여는 시점에서 우리나라도 과거 선진사례에 대한 무비판적인 수용보다는 '한국다움'을 찾아내고 이를 토대로 하는 개성있고 다양한 도시 이미지를 확립하여야 할 것이다.

  • 세계 인구는 2019년 현재 77억 명에 달하고 있다. 이러한 추세에도 불구하고 모든 도시가 성장하고 있는 것은 아니다. 늘어나는 인구의 대부분은 편의시설, 일자리 문제로 큰 도시로 몰리고 있으며 이러한 현상은 중소도시의 인구감소를 유발하고, 더 나아가 특정도시에 있어서는 고용감소, 경기침체와 같은 결과로 이어지고 있다. 국내도 예외는 아니며 전국의 인구가 특별시, 광역시 등으로 몰리고 있는 추세이다. 일찍이 해외에서는 이러한 현상들을 해결하기 위해 오로지 도시의 성장에만 초점을 맞추는 전략이 아닌, 도시의 축소에 대응하는 방법을 연구하기 시작하였다. 본 논문에서는 국내 도시들의 인구동태를 파악하고 축소도시로 선정된 도시 사례를 파악하고 그 현황을 분석하였다. 다음으로 같은 맥락에서 해외 사례를 통해 축소도시의 문제에 대응하기 위한 전략으로 선택된 스마트 축소도시의 개념을 파악하였다. 이를 통해 국내와 해외의 대응 전략상의 차이점을 비교하였다. 결론에서는 일반적인 스마트 축소도시 전략에서 발생할 수 있는 문제점을 예측, 새로운 대안으로 유연한 스마트 축소도시(FSSC: Flexible Smart Shrinking City) 전략을 제안하여 자원과 비용을 효율적으로 사용하기 위한 방향을 제시하였다.
