Over the last fifteen years London and Barcelona have epitomised the story of the 'resurgent city' but now face a set of challenges without easy answers. BCN_LDN 2020 brings together a range of essays that acknowledge the achievements of recent policy making, but provide a critical reflection on the success stories that we hear from both cities and explore directions for future urban politics.
The collection includes essays from a variety of authors, including
- Antoni Vives (Fundació Ramon Trias Fargas)
- Fran Tonkiss (London School of Economics)
- Indy Johar (Zero Zero Architects)
- Anwar Akhtar (Cultural Industries Development Agency)
- Chris Murray (Core Cities Group)
- Lise Autogena (independent artist / NESTA fellow)
- Charlie Tims (Demos).
