Their essays were collected on the occasion of the adoption of the Pact of Amsterdam with an Urban Agenda for the European Union during the Dutch Presidency of the Council in 2016. The fifty essays gathered in this volume present perspectives from diverse academic disciplines in the humanities and the social sciences. The authors -- including the Mayor of Amsterdam, urban activists, civil servants and academic observers -- cover a wide range of topical issues, inviting and encouraging us to rethink citizenship, connectivity, innovation, sustainability and representation as well as the role of cities in administrative and political networks. With the Urban Agenda for the European Union, EU Member States have acknowledged the potential of cities to address the societal challenges of the 21st century. This is part of a larger, global trend. These are all good reasons to learn more about urban dynamics and to understand the challenges that cities have faced in the past and that they currently face. Often but not necessarily taking Amsterdam as an example, the essays in this volume will help you grasp the complexity of urban. 546 English. 650 0 Social change|zNetherlands|zAmsterdam. 650 0 Sociology, Urban|zNetherlands|zAmsterdam. 650 0 Sociology, Urban|zEurope. 650 7 Society and social sciences Society and social sciences. |2bicssc 650 7 Sociology and anthropology.|2bicssc 650 7 Sociology.|2bicssc 650 7 POLITICAL SCIENCE / Public Policy / City Planning & Urban Development.|2bisacsh 651 0 Amsterdam (Netherlands)|xSocial conditions. 653 0 urban dynamics. 653 0 european city. 700 1 Wageningen, A. 776 08 |iPrint version:|z9789462984905|z9462984905 |w(OCoLC)984841268 914 ocn982239476 994 92|bCKE
