Summary

In the 1990s, large-scale urban projects were launched in almost every metropolitan region of Europe. Several years on, the much-anticipated positive results of the innovative integration of economic and sustainable objectives have not always been apparent. To be successfully implemented, strategic urban projects require the successful coordination of collective action in a fragmented metropolitan setting, which often involves crossing barriers set up by the sector-minded, single-issue approaches typical of statutory territorial agencies. This book explores why existing projects have achieved such mixed results, and suggests new ways of thinking about strategic urban projects in future.
