I want to send the paper to Urban Studies http://www.uk.sagepub.com/urban_studies.sp
I wrote the title, the abstract, and the introduction which I attach below. They must not be considered in the word count. Four of the required quotations must be of 2014 and they must not be among those already mentioned in the introduction. The new quotations must be journal articles falling in the field of urban planning.
All the indicated parts must have a length more or less homogeneous.
With the words to write, I would like that the end of the introduction ends with a brief description of the paper structured as follows: The second section of the paper investigates …. The third section etc ..
The focus of this paper is..
(even though the paper has six sections, I ask the writer to summarize in maximum 3 parts)
I would like the paper was organized as follow:
The title of the paper is: Smart Cities vs Historical Cities: A possible Combination?
Abstract. This paper intends to propose a critical reflection on the current indices-based smart urban ranking, in order to understand whether and how can be read also the complexity of the historical cities. The measurement of city performance is the main way in which the complexity of urban change can be assessed and can judge if the approaches to managing that change is successful or not. However, the model of the European city is characterised by its mix of ancient city (“places” in the city), and ability to fit into the global dimension (“non-places” of the network). The structural characteristics of the historical city are difficult to measure and compare with those of the new towns through the classic indicators. In this framework, the aim of this paper is giving an overview of the smart cities, in which the main transversal factors of the historical and modern cities are analysed, focusing specifically on how today’s assessment models of index?based urban ranking (which are, at present, the international reference model of the smart cities) will be integrated.
1. Introduction:
You can find below
2. The historic cities towards a smart direction:
Suggestions:
In what way the historical cities are faced with new paradigms that guide much of the funding in directions not coherent with the historical places
“places” and “non place” in the historical city in a smart key
3. From smartness to sustainability
4. A resilient city to resist the pressures of history
5. A possible integration with other index-based urban rankings
(structuring structuring a new set of indicators in which a city can dematerialize its historicity)
6. Application to case studies
(2 Italian case studies and 2 European case studies)
7. Conclusion
