Bringing together a range of leading scholars from a wide range of disciplines, this edited collection examines innovative urban redevelopment projects around Europe and North America which are at the forefront of this new urbanism and which are here termed 'New Downtowns'. It introduces this term and concept and asks key questions about the futures of cities, such as how cities might achieve a sustained urbanity, what strategies might be deployed to do so, and how market forces might be co-opted for collective interests?
