Description
Britain's Cities, Britain's Future by Mike Emmerich explores how cities shape their institutions, governance, public services, religion and culture. The author argues that devolutionary powers should be granted to major cities to allow them to manage areas of public spending not inherently national in nature. Emmerich advocates for sustained investment in transport and infrastructure, as well as training initiatives. He also proposes an innovation-centric industrial policy with a focus on the social fabric of cities and their institutions. By examining the DNA of cities, Emmerich seeks to address the economic and political challenges facing Britain's urban areas. This book offers a thought-provoking analysis of the role of cities in shaping the future of the UK economy and society.
