This collection considers the role of long-term urban planning in
the development of cities, covering a range of North American and
European cities, and focusing on Belfast's social, economic and
political developments. The major cities of the West are
characterised by division, uneven development and unequal
distribution of jobs. In Belfast these general Western urban
characteristics are extended and heightened by association with a
long-standing political crisis and low-intensity conflict. The
authors integrate global debates on urban development and summarise
contemporary theories on cities and their future. An assortment of
interventions and delivery mechanisms are considered, and among the
key topics covered are urban economies and social exclusion; the
planning of city regions; the sustainable city; urban regeneration;
the role of culture in remaking cities; and the future governance
of cities.
