Book Synopsis Secondary Cities by : Pendras, Mark

Download or read book Secondary Cities written by Pendras, Mark and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2021-06-03 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores cities and the intra-regional relational dynamics often overlooked by urban scholars, and it challenges common representations of urban development successes and failures. Gathering leading international scholars from Europe, Australia and North America, it explores the secondary city concept in urban development theory and practice and advances a research agenda that highlights uneven development concerns. By emphasising the subordinate status of secondary cities relative to their dominant neighbours the book raises new questions about regional development in the Global North. It considers alternative relations and development strategies that innovatively reimagine the subordinate status of secondary cities and showcase their full potential.
