About Ernest Sternberg
My research has varied greatly over time, but has always exhibited an interest in the relationships between planning theory and planning practice. Over the years I have investigated questions of underlying theory in urban design, hazards and disaster mitigation, and several subfields of economic development planning, including tourism development and the creation of technology-intensive economic regions.
