This book provides a conceptual framework for understanding the
inclusive city. It clarifies the concept, dimensions and tensions
of social and economic inclusion and outlines different forms of
exclusion to which inclusion may be an antidote. The authors argue
that as inclusion involves a range of inter-group and intragroup
tensions, the unifying role of local government is crucial in
making inclusion a reality for all, as is also the adoption of an
inclusive and collaborative governance style. The book emphasizes
the need to shift from citizens' rights to value creation, thus
building a connection with urban economic development. It
demonstrates that inclusion is an opportunity to widen the local
resource base, create collaborative synergies, and improve
conditions for entrepreneurship, which are conducive to the
creation of shared urban prosperity.
