This book is organized in three parts: (I) Seoul Metropolitan Government and the Development of a Smart City, (II) Placemaking for E-Seoul: Network Governance, Art, and Tourism, and (III) E-Commerce, Urban Planning, and Urban Sustainability. It presents how Seoul has interpreted and developed the notion of the smart city.
Cutting across diverse disciplines, such as economics, sociology, public administration, public policy, urban design and planning, urban engineering, civil and environmental engineering, and tourism research, The Making of a Smart City in Korea: The Quest for E-Seoul provides empirical evidence on how the notion of the smart city has been interpreted and applied in Seoul—the capital and largest metropolis of South Korea. The contributors show how shifting a traditional city into a digital one has brought about noticeable changes in the governance, economics, arts, and cultures of Seoul.

This edited volume on the Seoul Metropolitan Government’s quest for e-Seoul provides great resources for many cities worldwide to seek to benchmark this particular type of smart city, as well as for all those academics in the related fields to learn it theoretically and empirically, given that Seoul has systematically pushed different stages and strategies of the smart urbanization.
