Global Decisions, Local Collisions: Urban Life in the New World Order
Editorial Reviews
From the Publisher
A new politics for a new economy
From the Inside Flap
"Global Decisions, Local Collisions is a solid, well-written, and well-substantiated argument with a number of case studies on topics of major interest. [It] adds new analysis that makes a real and important contribution."
-Peter Marcuse, author of Globalizing Cities and Of States and Cities
"Ranney's book should be of considerable interest and use to scholars working in the urban political economy and on the local impacts of the processes of global economic reorganization. His descriptions are lucid and well-argued. His most original contribution comes in deepening and advancing a sophisticated theoretical understanding of these processes through examination of the Chicago cases. This he does masterfully, and in doing so, makes what I believe will be a significant contribution to the debate."
-Adolph Reed, Jr., Professor of Political Science, Graduate Faculty, New School for Social Research
