Urban-Suburban Interdependencies

Experts in urban and regional planning, political science, economics, and related fields look at issues such as economic interdependencies, global competitiveness, and intergovernmental relationships to address how cities and their suburbs are dependent on each other. The chapters consider possible avenues for effective regional policies. They are based on papers presented at a 1998 conference cosponsored by the University of Illinois at Chicago, the Lincoln Institute, and the Brookings Institution Center on Urban and Metropolitan Policy.

Exellent book on regionalism

A collection of thoughtful essays on the relationship between the city and suburb, and the problems and issues affecting both on a regional level. The chapters are wide-ranging--focusing on planning, politics, economics, and policy--which I found useful in thinking about the practical and theoretical aspects of regionalism.
