Abstract

The article provides a systematic review of empirical models of urban development. The authors identify eight key modern models (service, comfortable (amenities-oriented), compact, ‘green’, studying, creative, ‘smart’ and social city) which are traditionally considered by developers of urban strategies as alternatives. The researchers prove the necessity of combinatory use of mentioned models instead of their opposition, i. e. priority directions of modern cities’ development can be used as a universal empirical framework (‘a coordinate system’). The analysis allows the authors to conclude that large cities are complex, adaptive systems developing with a high stochastic component and path dependence, which are characterized by multi-industry economical structure and extremely heterogeneous social structure of the population. This objectively requires the use of a system approach to strategic planning and management of such cities’ development.
