内容説明

This study evaluates the meaning and implications of efforts to privatize urban policy in Britain and the US. The authors consider how urban policy has been designed to promote the role of the private sector, and examine the similarities and differences that exist in this endeavour between the two countries. They argue that too much attention has been devoted to selling the virtues of the private city on both sides of the Atlantic, and document the limits of political decisions which rely on the private sector in urban development.
