- W189391775 abstract "World cities or global cities are the command and control centers of the global economy, that is, they are nodal points that function as organizing centers for the interdependent skein of material, financial, and cultural flows that together sustain contemporary globalization. The most commonly identified examples of world/global cities include major centers such as London, New York, Tokyo, Paris, and Hong Kong. Research on world/global cities is founded on two key observations: (1) the worldwide distribution of economic activity necessitates strategic control functions that are found in a limited number of locations and (2) the exercise of this strategic control is accomplished through the capacity of world/global city agents to network across space. In tune with the urban geography literature at large, world/global cities research can be conceived as involving two more-or-less distinct research agendas, the first focusing on the position of cities in an overarching system, and the second on shifting socioeconomic patterns within cities. Although there are most certainly a number of common vantage points in this literature, there is a need to distinguish between ‘global cities’ and ‘world cities’. A key research theme has been the empirical identification of world/global cities, if only because the problems encountered in such exercises bring to light the apparently inevitable data problems when doing empirically sustained globalization research. This article concludes with an overview of the major criticisms raised against this research." @default.
