What happens with the economy when the economists are sleeping? Nightlife Cities is a citizen's guide to night-time economics, written for those who want to understand how the economy works at night but have no interest in conventional jargon or equations. Economist Sergey Avetisyan explains the general principles underlying different urban economic ideas: leisure industry, assemblage urbanism, deindustrialization, and so on. In straightforward language, the author shows how to critique municipal policies in terms of the incentives they create, rather than the goals they proclaim. With clear explanations of the entire field, from urbanization and the rise and fall of the alcohol industry to the international developed cities, this is the first book for anyone who wishes to understand how the night-time economy functions. This book is not an introduction to city life but more a presentation on an interesting aspect of urban economics. Securely, you can enjoy and learn a lot from this book.
