[edit] GLOBALIZATION AND THE CITY

An examination of the urban impact of globalization and the role of cities in globalization. The text looks at the role of cities across the globe rather than a narrow band of world cities, exploring the relationship between urban dynamics and cultural and political globalization.

An accessible and topical examination of the urban impact of globalization and the role of cities in globalization. There is little printed matter on the complicated relationship between globalization and urbanization for students. This book explores how economic, cultural and political processes at the global level lead to changes in the city, and how urban dynamics at the local level rework globalization. *Breaks new ground by giving the book a truly global focus through the use of extensive case studies of cities such as Sydney and Miami *Discusses cultural and political globalization, not just economic globalization *Looks at the role of urban dynamics in reproducing globalization, rather than just globally induced changes to the city
