Synopsis :

This book provides a cross-national analysis of the current issues and "best practices" employed in the advanced industrial countries to restructure and diversify local urban economies. The first part examines policy issues in systematic terms. It looks at major issues of urban regeneration strategy such as the integration of urban sectoral policies, high technology (especially new information technologies), small business creation and expansion, advanced producer services, fiscal capacity, and institutional and organizational factors. The second part provides case-study evaluations of some of these policies at work in selected cities. Examples are drawn from Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Canada and the United States. In the concluding part, the editors construct a checklist of the generic factors that seem most conducive to successful urban regeneration.
