Knowledge Economy and the City

More about the book

Focusing on the interplay between space and the economy, the book examines how the knowledge economy shapes spatial expressions distinct from those of previous economic systems. It argues that just as the capitalist industrial economy created unique spatial forms, the emerging knowledge-based economy is poised to develop its own spatial characteristics. These evolving spatial expressions, even if not fully realized, may serve as blueprints for the future development of urban environments.
