Description
This interdisciplinary study examines the transformation of Glasgow as it has transitioned from a de-industrial to a post-industrial city during the 20th and 21st centuries. A broad range of contributors analyse diverse issues of urban policy, regeneration, and economic and social change to consider the necessary actions required to secure the gains of regeneration and create an economically competitive and socially just city.
