Urban & Regional Planning Review

Urban and Regional Planning Review

Urban and Regional Planning Review (URPR) is an interdisciplinary and open access journal for urban and regional planning, established by three academic institutes in Japan, the City Planning Institute of Japan (CPIJ), the Japanese Institute of Landscape Architecture (JILA) and the Japanese Association for Planning and Public Management (JAPPM). It is a peer-reviewed online journal firstly published in 2014.

Manuscripts for URPR may be theoretical or contain empirical research outcomes, written in English, not only by academics but also professional planners. They are expected to have original content and should not have been previously published, nor be under simultaneous consideration by another academic journal.
Objectives, research methodologies, and conclusions must be logically consistent, and the conclusion in particular must highlight not only previously unknown findings but also new themes for further research in urban and regional planning.

Accepted manuscripts will be published on the J-Stage.

We look forward to contributions from many scholars and practitioners who are engaged in urban and regional planning all over the world.
