However, the existing literature suggests that the rapid growth of the concept has resulted in ambiguity about its meaning. Given that the concept has a potential in planning research and practice, the thematic issue aims to present studies that use comparative approaches as a way to sharpen the understanding of co-production. The issue includes one commentary and six articles with empirical evidence from various countries across the world. The editorial provides overarching context and introduces each contribution of the issue.enUrban planning;9https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/co-7-frameworkco-productioncomparative researchurban development710Co-production in the urban setting: fostering definitional and conceptual clarity through comparative researchArticleUrbanitätVergleichende ForschungKoproduktion
