征文启事 | 专刊《探索城市收缩：可持续发展的含义、对策和策略》等你来

Urban shrinkage, a concurrent manifestation of population decline and economic recession, significantly impacts urban economic performance and sustainable development. Initially prevalent in Western Europe post the era of remarkable post-war urban growth, many cities, such as those in the Ruhr basin, northern England, and Wallonia, began to experience shrinkage during the 1970s and 1980s. However, urban shrinkage is not confined to the developed western territories. It has emerged as a universal phenomenon, accompanying the ongoing process of global urbanization. Numerous large cities in Eastern Asia, for instance, are grappling with population decline. Thus, urban shrinkage warrants extensive attention from urban scholars as it continues to become a prevailing issue across a growing number of global cities.

城市收缩是人口减少和经济衰退的同时表现，严重影响城市经济表现和可持续发展。在战后显著的城市增长时代后，许多城市，如鲁尔盆地、英格兰北部和瓦隆地区的城市，在20世纪70年代和80年代开始经历收缩，这种现象最初在西欧普遍存在。然而，城市收缩并不局限于发达的西部地区。伴随着正在进行的全球城市化进程，它已成为一种普遍现象。例如，东亚的许多大城市正在努力应对人口下降。因此，城市收缩值得城市学者的广泛关注，因为它继续成为越来越多的全球城市的普遍问题。 

本期专刊的目标是深入探讨城市收缩的领域，旨在正确定义城市收缩，了解其对地方增长、区域发展、治理和可持续发展的影响。此外，这一期旨在探索应对收缩模式的潜在对策和补救措施，并从调查城市收缩的性质中收集跨领域的见解。
