Abstract: Urban problems in Scotland share many of the features that are common elsewhere in the UK and originate from similar causes. But there are some important differences in the scale and nature of the problems and quite distinctive institutional arrangements have been made to tackle them. The purpose of this paper is to explain the policies which have been followed and to consider what has been achieved. It is a subject which Gordon Cameron knew well, and which interested him considerably, especially in the years he spent as professor at Glasgow and in his work as a consultant to the Scottish Office.
