Description

This original book builds on the author's research in Phoenix cities to present a vivid story of Europe's post-industrial cities pre- and post- financial crisis.

Using varied case studies the book explores how policy responses to the economic crisis have played out in different European cities, with their contrasting conditions, history and performance generating contrasting reactions.

The book compares changes between Northern and Southern European countries, bigger and smaller cities, over the past ten years.

Across the continent social cohesion, community investment and social enterprise have gained momentum as Europe's crowded, resource-constrained cities face up to environmental and social limits faster than other less densely urban countries, such as the US.

The author presents a compelling framework to show that Europe's cities are creating a new industrial economy to combat environmental and social unravelling.
