Limits of Boundaries [EPUB ebook]
Why City-regions Cannot be Self-governing

Stöd

Omslag till Andrew Sancton: Limits of Boundaries (ePUB)

Andrew Sancton combines his own broad knowledge of global changes with an outline and comparison of the viewpoints of prominent social scientists to argue that city regions in western liberal democracies will not and cannot be self-governing. Self-government requires a territory delineated by official boundaries, but the multiple boundaries of city-regions, unlike the clear and undisputed boundaries of provinces and states, continue to move outward due to the constant growth and expansion of urban populations and services.
