Since the emergence of urban systems, cities have developed in a
mutually inter-dependent process of socio-economic dynamics and
transportation linkages. In recent years, Airports worldwide have
stepped beyond the stage of being pure infrastructure facilities
while the complex dynamics that are taking place at and around
international airports represent a crucial element in the
post-industrial reorganisation of urban and regional systems.
Airports are increasingly recognized as general urban activity
centres; that is, key assets for cities and regions as economic
generators and catalysts of investment in addition to being
critical components of efficient city infrastructure. This book
brings together contributions from renowned academic scholars and
world leading practitioners to discuss insights gained from theory
and practice. The first collection of papers reflects upon the
general role and future of airports as well as their specific
contribution to competitive advantages within a fast changing
business and economic landscape. The second group of contributions
ask about the role airports play within the innovation process that
is inherently centred on generating and sharing knowledge. The
third section of papers investigates the drivers of real estate
developments on airport land and in the close vicinity of airports.
