Globalization and Integrated Area Development in European Cities (Oxford Geographical and Environmental Studies Series) - Hardcover
Book 6 of 33: Oxford Geographical and Environmental Studies
Synopsis
Contrary to common beliefs, economic globalization does not imply the end of social urban policy. This book argues that urban society and policy-makers have sufficient degrees of freedom available to decide on the social and economic future of deprived neighborhoods. Experiences from several European cities shwo that neighborhood-based redevelopment strategies offer a more promising future to urban populations than the global-market led slow movement that paralyzes urban policy today.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. In this book the author seeks to rebut the somewhat fatalistic argument that socio-economic prosperity in the cities can only be achieved by the application of global market-led policies. He argues that urban society and policy makers do have sufficient freedom of action to make local decisions on the economic and social development of deprived neighbourhoods. Drawing on evidence from six major European cities, he demonstrates that their 'Integrated AreaDevelopment' strategies, which rely on grassroots democracy and the empowerment of local communities, can deliver a social, economic, and cultural renaissance which meets the needs of the local population moreeffectively than the market-forces creed. This book argues that economic globalization should not imply the end of social urban policies; and that policy-makers do have sufficient freedom of action to make decisions about the social and economic future of deprived city areas.
