abstract |
Today’s smart city agendas are the latest iteration of urban sociotechnical innovation.
Their aim is to use information and communication technologies (ICT) to improve the
economic and environmental performance of cities while hopefully providing a better
quality of life for residents. Urban planners have long-standing tradition of aligning
technological innovation with the built environment and residents but have been only
peripherally engaged in smart cities debates to date. However, this situation is beginning
to change as iconic, one-of-a-kind smart projects are giving way to the ‘actually
existing smart city’ and ICT interventions are emerging as ubiquitous features of
twenty-first century cities. The aim of this thematic issue is to explore the various
ways that smart cities are influencing and being influenced by urban planning. The
articles provide empirical evidence of how urban planners are engaging with processes
of smart urbanisation through projects, practices, and politics. They reveal the profound
and lasting influence of digitalisation on urban planning and the multiple opportunities
for urban planners to serve as champions and drivers of the smart city. |
