The conclusions of a major research programme on strategic, city-wide urban regeneration are set out in this report. Building on case studies in Birmingham, Glasgow and Edinburgh, it proposes an agenda of organisational innovation for the 21st Century - a first step to sustainable cities.
This report provides an in-depth study of factors that influence the effectiveness of urban regeneration partnerships, and how they work within the national policy context. It highlights the key lessons of partnership, exploring good practice in leadership, visioning and consensus building, and the translation of vision into workable objectives.
Can regional identities create a more sustainable alternative to the increasingly standardised environments in which we live? Is bottom-up rather than top-down planning possible?
This volume provides in one single comprehensive collection, the findings of the largest ever programme of cities research in the UK. The country's leading experts present the findings of this wide-ranging programme of work funded by the Economic and Social Research Council.
