THE ECO-CITY- DONGTON
The eco-city is an umbrella metaphor that encompasses a wide range of urban-ecological proposals thataim to achieve urban sustainability. These approaches propose a wide range of environmental, social, and
institutional policies that are directed to managing urban spaces to achieve sustainability.
Dongton promotes the ecological agenda and emphasizes environmental management through a set of institutional and policy tools. The distinctive concepts of the eco-city are greening and passive solardesign. In terms of density and other concepts, the eco-city might be conceived as a formless city or anecoamorphous city. There are some approaches that emphasize the passive solar design, such as theEcovillage, Solar Village.
It is remarkable that the core of many approaches is the management of the Dongton city, rather than thesuggesting of any specific urban form; it is believed that not the physical shape of the Dongton city and its
built environment that is important; it is how the urban society is organized and managed that countsmost.
Therefore, the Dongton city is managed to achieve sustainability through different land use,environmental, institutional, social, and economic policies In practice, many local governments, planningconsultants, landscape architects, and so on are grappling much more specifically with aspects of ecological, pedestrian oriented, or otherwise sustainable urban form.
