Recensioner i media

“This book shows that planning beyond growth is today necessary, desirable and viable. Rydin harnesses the power of the foundational economy to create a paradigm of socio-spatial change that places universal essential needs at its heart. Her pragmatic approach will inspire a whole future generation of planning professionals.” Federico Savini, University of Amsterdam
