内容説明
An introduction to both the approaches and perspectives in urban geography. This work explores the roles played by global cities, governments and institutions in forming and changing urban landscapes. Placing the European and North American city within a changing set of global economic and urban systems, the book examines how systems impact on the lives and the geographies of cities. The rise of the "post-industrial" entrepreneurial city, resistance of local cultures and political formations, and recent problems, including homelessness and the edge-city phenomena, are explored. With the emergence of a new geography of world urbanization, this book examines the challenges of urban government at both central and local levels.
