Urban Planning in Lusophone African Countries

Urban planning on the five Lusophone African countries, has so far been relatively overlooked in planning literature. This book fills the gap by providing an in-depth analysis of key issues in the history of urban planning and discussing the key challenges confronting contemporary urban planning in these countries. A team of leading scholars confirm previous research in the colonial and postcolonial periods in Lusophone African countries and at the same time break fresh ground and offer additional insights.
