1) Explore innovative management skills for taming thorny problems that arise with urbanization
2) Provide a platform to deal with urban affairs whose solutions must be looked at from an interdisciplinary perspective.
We are particularly interested in theoretical work and applications that are targeted at urban management in, but not limited to, Mainland China and Taiwan. The term urban management is defined broadly here to cover studies and research in planning, administering, regulating, and governing (PARG) urban complexity. The urban phenomena that are of interest cut across ecological, physical, economic, political, and social settings, with a belief that these settings interact with each other and should be treated as a whole. The JUM publishes two issues per year and we accept manuscripts throughout the year.

The Journal of Urban Technology publishes articles that review and analyze developments in urban technologies as well as articles that study the history and the political, economic, environmental, social, esthetic, and ethical effects of those technologies. The goal of the journal is, through education and discussion, to maximize the positive and minimize the adverse effects of technology on cities. The journal's mission is to open a conversation between specialists and non-specialists (or among practitioners of different specialities) and is designed for both scholars and a general audience whose businesses, occupations, professions, or studies require that they become aware of the effects of new technologies on urban environments.
