Over the last decade, commentaries and research on urban tourism precincts have predominantly focused on: their role in the tourism attractions mix; their physical and functional forms; their economic significance; their role as a catalyst for urban renewal; their evolution and associated development processes; and, perhaps more broadly, their role, locality and function within the context of urban planning. City Spaces - Tourist Places both consolidates and develops the extant knowledge of urban tourism precincts into a coherent research driven contemporary work. It revisits and examines the foundational literature but, more importantly, engages with aspects of precinct development that have previously been either underdeveloped or received only limited consideration, such as the psychological and socio-cultural dimensions of the precinct experience. Written by an international team of contributors it provides the reader with: * A comprehensive analysis of foundational theory and cutting-edge advances in the knowledge of the precinct phenomenon * An examination of previously underdeveloped topics and themes based on contemporary and ground-breaking research * Typological and theoretical frameworks in which to locate precinct form, function and experience Brilliantly edited to ensure theoretical continuity and coherence City Spaces - Tourist Places is vital reading for anyone involved in the study or planning of urban tourism precincts. * A cutting-edge text which not only examines foundational theory in urban studies but advances knowledge of the precinct phenomenon by its engagement of previously underdeveloped topics * Vital reading for anyone involved in the study or planning of urban tourism * Written by an international team of expert contributors and brilliantly edited to ensure theoretical continuity and accessiblity

Planning structure of cities plays an important role in shaping their sustainable development while elaborating urban planning documentation (master plans and detailed plan projects). The existing studies of small towns in Iran reveal issues of architectural heritage and do not touch upon such peculiar features of small town planning as shape of their plan, network of streets, their configuration. It has not been established how a planning structure of a small city influences on its sustainable development.An inspection of 16 small towns of Iran has shown that the majority of the cities have a compact planning form which is due to flat relief, as well as the need for efficient use of valuable agricultural land. At the same time the paper demonstrates that territory development for building construction within city boundaries has unequal character. It has been determined that cities have very few green areas. Undeveloped wastelands owned by private individuals are often located close to densely developed areas. Such situation is due to specific features of the Iranian legislation that does not specify time terms for territory development. Parameters of urban road-street networks (width in red lines, presence of such transverse profile elements as landscaping along roadways) do not correspond to the existing recommendations in Iran. Mixed or free system of streets is considered as the most common one and it is due to changes in urban conditions during the long process of development. Frequent network of narrow streets forms a system of small blocks of various shapes and needs to be improved. The majority of the inspected cities do not have bypass roads for freight transport, and there is also a transit transport through their historic centers. ; Планировочная структура городов играет важную роль в определении направлений их развития в ходе разработки градостроительной документации (генеральных планов и проектов детальной планировки). Существующие исследования малых городов Ирана освещают вопросы архитектурного наследия и не затрагивают характерные особенности планировки малых городов, такие как форма их плана, сеть улиц, их конфигурация. Не установлено, как планировочная структура малого города оказывает влияние на потенциал его устойчивого развития.В результате обследования 16 малых городов Ирана выявлено, что большинство городов имеют компактную форму плана, которая обусловлена равнинным рельефом, а также необходимостью рационально использовать ценные сельскохозяйственные земли. Вместе с тем, освоение территории под застройку в границах города носит неравномерный характер. Установлено, что города имеют крайне мало озелененных территорий. Рядом с плотно застроенными кварталами часто находятся незастроенные пустыри, принадлежащие частным лицам. Это вызвано особенностями иранского законодательства, не ограничивающего срока освоения участка. Параметры улично-дорожной сети городов (ширина в красных линиях, наличие таких элементов поперечного профиля, как озеленение вдоль проезжей части) не соответствуют действующим в Иране рекомендациям. Наиболее распространена смешанная или свободная система улиц, которая обусловлена сменой градостроительных условий в процессе длительного развития. Частая сеть узких улиц формирует систему мелких кварталов разнообразного очертания и нуждается в совершенствовании. В большинстве обследованных городов нет обходных дорог для грузового транспорта, а также существует транспортный транзит через исторический центр.

The subject of this research is to develop the major directions of complex socio-ecological-economic development of Moscow based on the best examples of the development of foreign cities. In the context of rapid growth of the metropolis, Moscow faces a number of environmental, infrastructure and other problems requiring complex solutions. Many developed countries have accumulated significant experience in solving typical problems of mega-cities. The analysis of foreign experience has shown that certain positive shifts are only possible with case by case approach. However, sustainable effect can be achieved through long-term strategic planning development of the city from the perspective of the population growth. Problems requiring complex solutions can be divided into three groups: environmental, social, infrastructural. The analysis of foreign experience shows that a successful promotion strategy for city development requires certain prerequisites, such as: 1) coordination between political choice and strategic planning development of the city; 2) stabilization of the population and reduction of its density. The last factor is very important, and here it is impossible to do without some of territorial planning at the Federal level.

In the last decade, research in the field of smart cities has expanded from purely technological aspects to include the areas of management development, urban planning and social sciences. In general, the discussion focuses on how the use of technology contributes to the development of the city, urban space and improving the quality of decisions[1].The article offers a tool to enrich the urban development management system. It is argued that by developing appropriate scales, subjective views and perceptions of the citizen can be objectivized and, therefore, are very useful for managers and politicians.In this paper, the development process is carried out in several stages, using inductive and deductive methods. Following focus groups and interviewing representatives of the city authorities, a survey was conducted with the participation of almost a thousand city inhabitants from all Kazakhstan regions. The data were analyzed using IBM SPSS 24 and AMOS 20 tools.The study proposes a scale that includes statements structured in five identified dimensions: willingness to interact, expectation of improvements, willingness to use, concern about efficiency, concern about abuse. As the methodology is disclosed, important theoretical and managerial implications are discussed, the need for information flow management in the interests of participants in the implementation of Smart City is justified. ; В последнее десятилетие исследования в области умных городов от сугубо технологических аспектов расширяются и включают сферы развития управления, урбанистического планирования и социальные науки. В целом дискуссия концентрируется на том, как использование технологий содействует улучшению города, развитию городского пространства и повышению качества принимаемых решений[1].В рамках данной статьи также предлагается один из способов обогащения системы управления городским развитием, описывающий возможное использование взглядов и восприятия горожан как конечных пользователей услуг и приложений Smart City в системе управления. ...

The article discusses issues related to the effectiveness of strategic planning for the development of small citiesand municipal district centers on the base of the network coordination mechanism. The relevance of the topic is related to the insufficient effectiveness of existing approaches to municipal development planning, and the need to search for new solutions in this area. The authors briefly describe the new institutional economic theory approach in defining the network coordination mechanism, as well as the concept of the "network city". It is shown that the network coordination mechanism creates a basis for cooperation of small citiesin several directions, including infrastructure development, exchange of best management practices, labor resources and competencies, joint projects implementation. It is concluded that network cooperation of small citiescan contribute to increasing the effectiveness of strategic planning through the exchange of experience, alignment of interests and priorities of joint development. The obtained results can be used in the development of strategic planning documents for small cities and municipal district centers in Russia.
