Inner-city Renewal in Addis Ababa, based on case studies, examines the impact of inner-city renewal and resettlement on the socio-economic and housing conditions of low-income residents. It analyzes the causes of the widespread deterioration and decay of inner-city residential neighborhoods, describes the conflicting interests, and examines the explicit and implicit public-sector interventions. The study concludes that it is only with a more process oriented and participatory approach that inner-city renewal can benefit the whole community and be used as vehicle to create sustainable quality of living environment in which people could improve their economic and social position according to their own capacities. It calls on planners, architects and other pro-fessionals to act as educators and enablers, in helping people to articulate their needs through the renewal of their urban environment. This book is important for all professionals, postgraduate students and researchers working in the field of urban development policy, planning and management.
