The relationship between culture and urbanism has been the focus of
much discussion and debate in recent years. While globalisation
tends towards a homogeneity, successful 'global cities' have a
strong individual - and particularly cultural - identity. The
economic value of the culture of cities lies not only in the arts
taking place there but also in the city's fabric, its architecture,
and in its cultural heritage. This volume brings together a team of
leading specialists to examine the policies of image and city
marketing which have developed over the past 15 years and whether
these are a continuity of earlier strategies. Featuring case
studies which illustrate diverse perspectives on linking culture,
urbanism and history, the book reviews heritage and planning
culture, looking at the experience of urbanism in the 'Old Historic
City'. The book also assesses the increasingly important issue of
urban images and their influence on planning strategies.
