520 _aStudies international urban planning in the global and regional context in which it takes place and also the combinations of issues confronting different cities. The book breaks new ground in its consideration of both those cities traditionally regarded as world cities and a range of other important cities across the world. Covers the conceptual framework, examines world cities in North America, Europe and Pacific Asia and concludes with a discussion of the current and future planning of world cities in response to the pressures of globalisation.
