A team of international contributors illustrate how gaps are emerging across Europe due to the significant shifts in urban programmes. The book provides an in-depth analysis into how the European Union influences policies at a national level within its member states and how these are implemented in terms of scope and objectives. It explores how this results in fewer commonalities between countries and the gap between the rise of international urban agendas and variegated national urban policies, examining whether a more bespoke approach is better than the traditional 'one size fits all'. This insightful book will be an important read for researchers of urban studies and public policy as well as scholars with an interest in urban and regional sociology"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aElgar Modern Guides 606 $aUrban policy$zEurope 606 $aCity planning$zEurope 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aUrban policy 615 0$aCity planning 676 $a307.76094 712 02$aEdward Elgar Publishing, 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557301603321 996 $aA modern guide to national urban policies in europe$92829185 997 $aUNINA
