My recently completed ABCs of Urbanism series looked into 26 fields of urban studies. While this may have seem an exhaustive list (and it certain felt like one when writing it!), it is only a small sample.
To illustrate the number and diversity of thinking on urbanism, I have created this list of 101 urbanisms. Lest you think I pulled these from thin air, I made sure that each one has at least one meaningful link on Google; several have books or serious academic journals dedicated to them.
The asterisked (*) text refers to the urbanisms included in my ABCs. The other linked items are books with that title on Amazon (affiliate).

Amazingly, even this lengthy list is by no means exhaustive. MONU, the Magazine of Urbanism has published 13 issues to date, many on urbanisms not listed here, such as Beautiful Urbanism and Exotic Urbanism. Moreover, during my research into the ABCs of Urbanism, I discovered even more urbanisms that intrigued me, including micro urbanism and pop-up urbanism. I hope to explore these in future posts.
I’m sure I am missing even more. If you have a favorite urbanism that is missing from this list, let me know in the comments section.
I love it. I knew there were a lot, but that is impressive.
Thanks Sid!
