The Future of New York: An International Perspective
The Spring 2006 issue, The Future of New York: An International Perspective is based mainly on a symposium held here in 2003 that included colleagues from many other world cities in an investigation of how New York City might consider itself in the global network. Participants from Los Angeles, Paris, London, Beijing and Shanghai presented their ideas not only about New York but also about 21st-century cities in general and how they are connected.
