The Futures of the City Region (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Neuman, Michael; Hull, Angela

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Current debates about city-regions tend to renew long-standing arguments that policy-making ought to be organised around more functional urban areas. This collection draws on evidence from the US, Australia, the UK and the Netherlands to focus on how city region spaces and their governance institutions are changing.

This book was originally published as a Special Issue of Regional Studies.
