Abstract

Our world is turning into an urban world. This New Urban World prompts a great variety of research and policy challenges. The present paper seeks to map out such challenges and to explore new roads for a strategically-based urban planning for the future of our planet. An exploratory tool employed here is formed by 'urban images'. The urban-rural divide is also discussed, as well as future strategic options for cities.
