    US cities are at the forefront of the sustainable development challenge. They contain 80% of the country’s population, and therefore have the capacity to make or break SDG achievement (US Census Bureau 2016).

    As cidades americanas produziram um espaço único, muito diferente das áreas urbanizadas da Europa e da América Latina. Esta singularidade se deve a diversos fatores históricos que propiciaram um tipo de desenvolvimento urbano baseado em direitos individuais e interesses econômicos. Hoje, enquanto as cidades americanas lutam para corrigir os erros do passado, vê-se os mesmos erros sendo repetidos em outros países, notadamente o Brasil.
