Re-imagining the future: city-region foresight and visioning in an era of fragmented governance
这篇社论探讨了城市区域概念的演变，以及这对城市未来（包括愿景规划和预见）提出的问题，强调预见技术在城市区域愿景中的重要性，以及如何将城市区域预见与转型理论、城市创新、气候变化和可持续发展议程联系起来。
In this editorial we explore how the concept of the city region has evolved and what questions this raises for the role of urban futures, including visioning and foresight. The editorial and special issue highlight the importance of foresight techniques in city-region visioning, how power relations are shaped and transformed by these processes, and how important it is to link city-regional foresight with transitions theory and urban innovation, alongside the climate change and sustainability agendas. This paper also addresses the application of city-region visioning in the Global North/Global South, and what this means for future research.
