The first is to overlook them. The second is to see them as a source of problems that need fixing. The third is to view them as full of potential that needs realising. The history of post-war urban policy can, with only a bid of simplification, be described as a progress from the first of these to the second. Post-war economists and governments had little sense of the economic importance of cities and city regions, while economic pressures and public policy tended to work in tandem to weaken them. Industries and businesses were encouraged to move from city-centre locations to edge-of-city ones. The spread of the car and continuing development of rail networks fuelled the growth of suburbs. Influential architects and planners extolled the virtues of demolishing old inner city ‘slums’, and moving their residents to edge of the city or beyond, and the construction of urban motorways, towers in parks and garden cities – which were in fact in reality more often or not, garden suburbs. The uk and other Western European nations characteristically adopted a more interventionist approach than did the us to planning in these years. The uk established ‘green belts’ to limit suburban development and promoted New Towns around London and other large cities. But there was a widespread assumption on both sides of the Atlantic in favour of policies and programmes that tackled the problems long associated with large cities – disease, pollution, congestion, poverty – by taking the city to the country and the country to the city and dissolving the difference between them. From the 1970s onwards however, we saw the beginning of a new phase in urban policy. A number of related developments – the collapse of old urban industries and ports, and the consequent rise in unemployment and poverty, dramatically increasing crime rates, and the obvious failures of experiments in modernist social housing programmes – forced 7 governments to rethink their approach to cities. Clark and Clark are careful to insist that there remains The last forty years have seen governments sponsoring an important role for national governments in urban programmes and initiatives aimed at rebuilding and policy. But that role, they argue, will increasingly rejuvenating rundown areas, and tackling the social be about supporting cites, not running them. In the problems that de-industrialisation and the decline meantime we need to ensure that cities have the powers, of urban economies left in their wake. resources and incentives to tailor policies to their own But as Greg Clark and Greg Clark help us see particular circumstances and make the most of their in this insightful paper, though efforts to tackle urban distinct advantages. dereliction and promote renewal were welcome, they As this paper clearly sets out, the uk economy were in some ways limited in scope and impact.

  • 'Ungovernable'? Financialisation and the Governance Of
    Governing the ‘ungovernable’? Financialisation and the governance of transport infrastructure in the London ‘global city-region’ February 2018 Peter O’Briena* Andy Pikea and John Tomaneyb aCentre for Urban and Regional Development Studies (CURDS), Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK NE1 7RU. Email: peter.o’[email protected]; [email protected] bBartlett School of Planning, University College London, Bartlett School of Planning, University College London, 620 Central House, 14 Upper Woburn Place, London, UK WC1H 0NN. Email: [email protected] *Corresponding author 1 Abstract The governance of infrastructure funding and financing at the city-region scale is a critical aspect of the continued search for mechanisms to channel investment into the urban landscape. In the context of the global financial crisis, austerity and uneven growth, national, sub-national and local state actors are being compelled to adopt the increasingly speculative activities of urban entrepreneurialism to attract new capital, develop ‘innovative’ financial instruments and models, and establish new or reform existing institutional arrangements for urban infrastructure governance. Amidst concerns about the claimed ‘ungovernability’ of ‘global’ cities and city-regions, governing urban infrastructure funding and financing has become an acute issue. Infrastructure renewal and development are interpreted as integral to urban growth, especially to underpin the size and scale of large cities and their significant contributions within national economies. Yet, oovercoming fragmented local jurisdictions to improve the governance and economic, social and environmental development of major metropolitan areas remains a challenge. The complex, and sometimes conflicting and contested inter-relationships at stake raise important questions about the role of the state in wrestling with entrepreneurial and managerialist governance imperatives.

  • City Views: How Do Britain’S Cities See London?
    City views: How do Britain’s cities see London? Zach Wilcox, Nada Nohrovà & Elliot Bidgood May 2014 “Centre for Cities is a research and policy institute, dedicated to improving the economic success of UK cities. We are a charity that works with cities, business and Whitehall to develop and implement policy that supports the performance of urban economies. We do this through impartial research and knowledge exchange.” www.centreforcities.org City Views: May 2014 Executive Summary London’s relationship with the rest of the nation — particularly its perceived dominance over other parts of the country — has long been a key feature of the UK economy, politics and cultural life. However, London’s growth has become a particular focus following the economic downturn of 2008 and the slow road to recovery that has followed. During these years, the capital’s economy has continued to accelerate away from other UK cities, despite politicians from all major political parties promoting a more balanced UK economy in which everyone shares the burden of reducing the deficit and restoring growth. “This report Given London’s invaluable role in driving national growth, local and national leaders must do much more to understand and articulate the links between city economies, aims to building a greater appreciation of the benefits it brings to their place alongside the further our potential dangers of holding back the capital’s success to preference other parts of the country. understanding Most Britons cannot see how investing in London’s Crossrail project, Tech City or of how people another London airport is going to benefit them.
