Chapter Chapter 1 in Neoliberal Urban Governance, 2023, pp 1-25 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter introduces the books’ preliminaries. This chapter also defines neoliberal urban governance as policies, programs, procedures, and an assemblage of institutions that unify around a common vision of city redevelopment and push to make this a reality. It discusses the study’s objectives, theoretical framework and presents its significance. It then provides an overview of the key subject matters of this book: the dynamics of neoliberal urban governance that defines current redevelopment city-wide. This is followed by a brief characterization of Chicago’s and Buenos Aires’s present redevelopment frontier areas, selection criteria of the geographical units, and time frame. Finally, this chapter discusses the methods used in this study. It acquires its data through the use of qualitative techniques: open-ended interviewing and appraising research reports, deconstructing technical documents, and deciphering newspaper articles.
