| Publisher Description: The major cities of the West are characterized by division, uneven development, and unequal distribution of jobs. In Belfast, these general western-city characteristics are extended and heightened by association with a long-standing political crisis and conflict. Covering a range of North American and European cities, but focusing on Belfast's social, economic and political developments, this collection considers the role of long-term urban planning in the development of cities. |
