Commuting, Migration and City Regions: A Commentary

Greg Lloyd

The Geddes Institute

East of Scotland European Partnership

Globalisation and global city regions

• globalisation is the principal driver of change

• cities and city regions are the emerging centres of economic competitiveness and innovation

• this creates agendas around urban development and governance.

• defined contexts – markets, growth, limited regulation

Connectivity?

European spatiality• spatial planning – the new

agenda for planning and management of regional development

• context of the global economy, competitiveness and scale

• normative assertions around city regions – mono-centric and poly-centric forms

• European Spatial Development Perspective– enhancing competitiveness– regional balance– urban-rural relations

Refreshing those bits……city regions?

• Partnership Agreement

• Framework for Economic Development

• Smart Successful Scotland

• National Planning Framework

• city regions

But where?

• Mono-centric approaches– Derek Halden Consultancy,

2002– Experían, 2004 – David Begg and Ian

Docherty,2002

• Polycentric urban region – Nick Bailey and Ivan Turok,

2001 – Edward Glaeser, 2004

• Research evidence

......and how?

• context – economic performance and scale

• urban morphology and place competition

• institutions and resources

• regulation and history

• identities and cultures

Clash of Ideas?

• old geography to new space

– functional, formal …. or fuzzy edges?– boundaries or borderless?

• single government to multiple governance

• fixed identities or fluid imagery?
