Rubanisation is a re-conceptualisation of human settlements in which the city and the countryside are considered as one space, not two as it is now-city and countryside are regarded as separate realms. Rubanisation stems from the belief that the continued consideration of the rural and the urban as two distinct realms is unsustainable in terms of social justice, cultural justice and environmental justice. This mode of thinking calls for a new spatial geometry of integrated development that offers real viable choices for living, one that is supported by environmentally sustainable technology and ethical lifestyle. 3, record 6, English, - rubanization
