Abstract
Over the past twenty years the topics of globalization and the global city have come to dominate the intellectual dialogue on international planning and development. Related issues like poverty, neocolonialism, sustainability, and even ‘development’ itself have all been subsumed into a term whose totalizing implications are matched by the breadth of its utilization in recent research, the best-known of which are so highly visible and widely cited as to hardly require specific identification.
