Book Description:
Cities are both the motor of change and the mirror of our societies. Three quarters of the population now live in them. Most human activity takes place in urban settings. Resolving urban problems is an essential part of solving the major problems of today. This publication is the result of an OECD conference on the economic, social, and environmental problems of cities. The problems at the heart of the debates were the poverty, segregation, and distress which characterize numerous neighborhoods, the physical degradation and lack of infrastructure and services which characterize others, and the difficulties in local adjustment to structural economic change prevailing in numerous cities. The solutions advocated in this publication constitute a challenge to our countries' local and national authorities, as well as to inhabitants and entrepreneurs who should unite their efforts in order to render our cities more 'urban.'
