Description: |
This analysis of Manchester's urban transformation asks whether the "new Manchester" has engineered an urban renaissance, or is on a slide into the post-industrial sludge of economic insecurity and social polarisation? |
Synopsis: |
Provides a critical account of one of Europe's most celebrated examples of urban transformation, getting beneath the hype to ask what has really changed in the 'new' Manchester.. The first comprehensive account of contemporary political and economic change in Manchester.. Explores the costs and consequences of making the transition from an industrial to a post-industrial or 'entrepreneurial' city, with broad implications for other major cities. -- . |
