By way of identifying the key dimensions of the land conversion process in East Asia, including environmental and social implications, this book focuses on the recent transformation of the urban fringe in the region. Using a welfare economics perspective, the study proposes a conceptual framework for processes, agents and policies involved in urban expansion, explores lessons of past experience, and proposes a menu of policy options and instruments.
