Journal of Urban Management

More than half of the world’s population now resides in cities. Managing human settlement development in the world has thus become one of the most challenging tasks for human beings. With Mainland China emerging as the second largest economy in the world since its economic reform, human settlements are faced with daunting challenges, including imbalance in wealth distribution and urban development. These unprecedented challenges prompt new ways of looking at and managing cities that incorporate traditional and cutting-edge approaches to urban management. Journal of Urban Management thus provides a forum for academics and practitioners to share their original, creative work as scholarly conversions that cut across traditional disciplines, such as public administration and urban planning. The objective of the Journal is to provide useful insights into how human settlements should be planned, governed, administered, and regulated, with a particular focus on Taiwan and Mainland China.

超过一半的世界人口现居住在城市，如何管理人类居住与活动区域之发展也因此成为一个当世最具挑战性的任务之一。随着中国自经济改革后逐渐成为世界第二大经济体，人类住区面临着严峻的挑战，包括财富分配不平衡和城市的发展。而这些前所未有的挑战，带动了结合传统和新颖的城市管理方法之新观点，来看待与管理城市。因此，城市管理杂志(Journal of Urban Management )提供了一个论坛，让学术界和业界人士分享其独创的、具创造性的学术研究，并跨越传统学科，如公共管理和城市规划。该杂志的目标是提供有用的见解，关于人类居住的城市区域应该如何进行规划、治理、管理、和规范等，并特别聚焦于台湾及中国大陆。
