Sommario/riassunto: Reflecting on two decades of 'competitiveness-oriented' urban policies in Europe this book investigates the current challenges cities face to sustain their economic position and how this can be balanced with social progress and environmental improvements. Complementing previous surveys on local and urban development and competitiveness-based strategies this volume provides longer term views on the evolution of such policies at the city level, from the personal perspective of city officials in eight European cities.
