Abstract

The notion that urban government and institutions can co-ordinate the development of large metropolises is today questioned by a threefold argument concerning: (a) their capacity to run large and complex metropolitan areas; (b) the role of markets and firms; and in more general terms; (c) the very principle of the possibility for strategic action.
