Knowledge and the City

This book underlines the growing importance of knowledge for the balanced development of cities and their regions. Examining the role of knowledge in its economic, sociocultural, spatial and institutional formsfor urban and regional development, identifying the preconditions for innovative use of urban and regional knowledge assets and resources, and developing new methods to evaluate the performance and potential of knowledge-based urban and regional development, the book provides an in-depth and comprehensive understanding of both theoretical and practical aspects of knowledge-based development and its implications and prospects for cities and regions.

Contents

Foreword
Knowledge and Development in the New Millennium

Countries across the world are today facing challenges such as demographic change and aging, the globalization of production, knowledge and technological shifts, climate change and the development of the green economy, poverty and inclusiveness. In addition, increased unemployment in many countries as a result of the global financial crisis has resulted in a wide range of socioeconomic consequences. These challenges require strategic solutions and long-term sustainable development pathways that are well articulated at the local level.
