内容説明

The aim of this volume is to link the study of 'the urban question' to new developments in general social theory. Urban studies, as an interdisciplinary science, must take account of political science, history, sociology, economics, planning, and policy analysis in order to broaden its application. To do this the authors advance the debate on the scope and limit of individual and local action within the structure of advanced urban concentration. They explore the analytical advantages and disadvantages of focusing on the system-level dynamics of economic, political, and social structures. `This excellent anthology brings us up to date on theoretical developments and empirical research within the framework of left urban political economy...Its contribution to the debate arises from its...wealth of ideas, and its overall high quality. Unlike most such collections, it is actually fun to read. -- Susan S Fainstein, Rutgers University, New Brusnwick, 1985 `Overall, the book is a valuable collection of stimulating, essentially academic papers.' -- Community Development Journal, Vol 20 No 4, 1985
