countries are being exacerbated by the decentralisation of economic
activities and higher income groups. Only offices and tourism offer
some prospects of growth, but these vary in their potential from
one city to another. This book assesses changes in the structure of
urban areas, concentrating on the process of decentralisation and
the consequences for the inner city and city centre. It examines
and evaluates policies and makes suggestions for the future
management of the city.
