Publisher's Synopsis
The brief of this study was to identify the indicators for assessing the potential of urban programme areas for physical and economic regeneration. After providing the framework for the selection and evaluation of the indicators given in part A of the report, each indicator is then separately specified and illustrated in detail in part B.;The main emphasis is the potential for regeneration, which seeks to reverse the "vicious spiral" in which physical, economic and social problems reinforce each other. Attention is also given to indigenous regeneration as well as an area's potential for attracting external stimuli.
