CE is defined as regenerative system that minimizes waste, emission, and energy leakage by slowing, closing, and narrowing material and energy loops. In principle, CE departs from the traditional linear model of take-make-use-dispose. As conceived in urban contexts, circular cities offer possibilities to regenerate natural systems, design out waste, and keep products in use. While the CE key principles of reduce, repair, and reuse are essential to the sustainable and inclusive interventions in urban slums, there is lack of case studies exploring the role of place and agency, especially the slum living-CE nexus in global south contexts. In inequitable urban transitions, a nuanced understanding of thesynergies between urban slums and the circular economy is not only theoretically relevant for reconceptualizing the slum in urban sustainability discourses but also exert policy and practice ramificati | 出版日期 | Book 2024 | 关键词 | Circular Cities; Sustainable Urban Communities; Low-Income Settlements; Sustainable Development Goals ( | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-99-9025-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-981-99-9027-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-981-99-9025-2Series ISSN 2198-2546 Series E-ISSN 2198-2554 | issn_series | 2198-2546 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapor |
