All cities have much in common, yet the differences are important.  They form the basis of both imaginative policy development and productive experiences of urban life. The phrase ?city imaging? is often used in public discourse, but rarely defined.   It refers to the ways that particular cities are branded and marketed. It is based on the assumption that urban representations can be transformed to develop tourism and attract businesses and in-demand workers to one city in preference to another. However, such a strategy is imprecise. History, subjectivity, bias and prejudice are difficult to temper to the needs of either economic development or social justice.    The taste, smell, sounds and architecture of a place all combine to construct the image of a city. For researchers, policy makers, activists and citizens, the challenge is to use or transform this image. The objective of this book is to help the reader define, understand and apply this process.  After a war on terror, a credit crunch and a recession, cities still do matter. Even as the de-territorialization of the worldwide web enables the free flow of money, music and ideas across national borders, cities remain important. City Imaging: Regeneration, Renewal, Decay surveys the iconography of urbanity and explores what happens when branding is emphasized over living. 410 0$aGeoJournal Library,$x0924-5499 ;$v108 606 $aRegional planning 606 $aUrban planning 606 $aArchitecture 606 $aCity planning 606 $aLandscape/Regional and Urban Planning$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15000 606 $aCities, Countries, Regions$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/K14000 606 $aUrbanism$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/K18006 615 0$aRegional planning. 615 0$aUrban planning. 615 0$aArchitecture. 615 0$aCity planning. 615 14$aLandscape/Regional and Urban Planning. 615 24$aCities, Countries, Regions. 615 24$aUrbanism. 676 $a307.3416 702 $aBrabazon$b Tara$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298388003321 996 $aCity Imaging: Regeneration, Renewal and Decay$92521603 997 $aUNINA
