Features: Urban management is the activity of effectively utilizing urban resources to achieve the continuous improvement of urban living standards and the long-term stable development of comprehensive benefits. This book is divided into eight chapters. The first three chapters primarily discuss the basic concepts, operational mechanisms, and development strategies of urban management in a relatively macro perspective. Chapters four to seven discuss the microsystems of urban management from the perspectives of urban society, infrastructure, economy, and environment. In Chapter eight, the focus is on urban management in the context of the current information wave, exploring aspects such as digital cities and e-government. Each chapter adopts a format where each section addresses a specific topic, delving into key issues of urban management. The aim is to move away from a purely textbook-style approach, ensuring that each chapter provides a deeper reflection on a particular aspect of urban management.
