This edited volume is a lively and timely appraisal of "ordinary
cities" as they struggle to implement creative redevelopment and
economic growth strategies to enhance their global competitiveness.
The book is concerned with new and often unanticipated inequalities
that have emerged from this new city movement. As chronicled, such
cities - Cleveland (USA), Heidelberg (Germany), Oxford (UK),
Groningen (Netherlands), Montpellier (France), but also cities from
the Global South such as Cachoeira (Brazil) and Delhi (India) - now
experience new and unexpected realities of poverty, segregation,
neglect of the poor, racial and ethnic strife. To date planners,
academics, and policy analysts have paid little attention to the
connections between this drive in these cities to be more creative
and the inequalities that have followed. This book, keenly making
these connections, highlights the limited visions that have been
applied in this planning drive to make these cities more creative
and ultimately more globally competitive.
