Seeing urban regeneration through an institutional lens: toward a new contextualism

Abstract

The article contrasts ‘textualist’ and ‘contextualist’ regimes of urban development and, in the words of its abstract, points ‘to a new contextualism in urban planning and design’, drawing on examples from Hong Kong. It is unconnected with the approach documented on this platform, and is listed so that the two uses of the phrase are not confused.
