Cities, whether it be in absolute economic, demographic, or organizational terms, have never been more important or powerful in global affairs than they are now. However, they also harbor some of the world's most pressing challenges - the so-called urban paradox. Local governments are becoming first responders to a widening scope and scale of problems and taking up new responsibilities, as hope is increasingly placed on cities as key actors to respond to global challenges and lead the implementation of more sustainable models of development. The combination of the expanding influence and importance of urban centers, the general tendency towards the decentralization of power, and the complex problems inherent to the globalization process, have set the stage for cities to become prime global players. This seventh volume of the book series IESE Cities in Motion: International Urban Best Practices delves into urban governance and explores how it will determine the decisions taken to address, mitigate, and optimize problems and opportunities related to all aspects of life in cities.
