An analyzing the distribution pattern of land uses in learning cities with spatial justice approach (Case Study: Zanjan City) by mohsen kalantari, hossein tahmasebi moghadam, bahareh Akbari Monfared

“…In addition, in order to analyze the findings, after describing the basic concepts of the learning city and taking into account the principles and indicators governing it, from two indicators of capacity and social justice have been used in the framework of comparing per capita and desirable levels, Nearest Neighborhood (NN) and entropy techniques. The results of the analysis of the distribution of learning land uses in the current situation indicate that the distribution of these land uses in the city are concentrated and clustered, with spatial imbalances. …”

Towards the praxis of a sustainable knowledge‑based economy by Agnieszka Klimska

“…Similarly, implementation of certain visions of sustainable development generates the need to make specific assumptions, different from the guidelines defined for the mainstream economy (e.g. taking into account global modelling and system analysis or the law of entropy) (Czaja 2011: 164). Implementation of the preferred directions of development, requires not so much efficient, but proper management, i.e. one which would translate itself onto the plane of decision-making and, subsequently, that of application. …”
