The Thames Gateway plan is the largest and most complex project of
urban regeneration ever undertaken in the United Kingdom. This book
provides a comprehensive overview and critique of the Thames
Gateway plan, but at the same time it uses the plan as a lens
through which to look at a series of important questions of social
theory, urban policy and governmental practice. It examines the
impact of urban planning and demographic change on East London's
material and social environment, including new forms of ethnic
gentrification, the development of the eastern hinterlands,
shifting patterns of migration between city and country, the role
of new policies in regulating housing provision and the attempt to
create new cultural hubs downriver. It also looks at issues of
governance and accountability, the tension between public and
private interests, and the immediate and longer term prospects for
the Thames Gateway project both in relation to the 'Olympics
effect' and the growth of new forms of regionalism.
