In both academic scholarship and the popular imagination, the
globality of modern society has been represented by global cities
as the corporate and financial epicentres for capital accumulation,
cosmopolitan cultures and innovative change. This has created an
image of the globalised world as empty beyond cities which make it
into the global league as paradigmatic 'celebrity' cities. As a
counterpoint this book give interpretive weight elsewhere, in
'other' places, cities and regions, drawing on a range of examples
from both the developed and developing worlds. Studies. Yong-Sook
