Reviews"Central city abandonment, suburban sprawl, affordable housing and transportation alternatives--all are challenges that transcend city and county boundaries. Public officials, private sector leaders and concerned citizens can learn a lot from this book on how city-suburban alliances can start addressing the toughest problems." --Neal R. Peirce, The Citistates Group and Columnist, Washington Post Writers' Group, "Central city abandonment, suburban sprawl, affordable housing and transportation alternatives--all are challenges that transcend city and county boundaries.

Peirce, The Citistates Group and Columnist, Washington Post Writers' Group, " Urban-Suburban Interdependencies provides striking insights into the complex functioning of our metropolitan regions and powerful evidence that we are all in it together. This book is an important addition to the growing literature on regionalism." -- Rep. Myron Orfield, House of Representatives, State of Minnesota, "This collection of essays examines some of the critical issues facing metropolitan policy makers and practitioners. Given rising concerns over the nation's sprawling development patterns, the essays prompt us to think more broadly about the causes and consequences of growth and the relationships between cities and suburbs. These essays are timely and informed, and they deserve a large audience." --Bruce Katz, Director, Center on Urban and Metropolitan Policy, The Brookings Institution, " Urban-Suburban Interdependencies provides striking insights into the complex functioning of our metropolitan regions and powerful evidence that we are all in it together.

SynopsisExperts in urban and regional planning, political science, economics, and related fields look at issues such as economic interdependencies, global competitiveness, and intergovernmental relationships to address how cities and their suburbs are dependent on each other. The chapters consider possible avenues for effective regional policies. They are based on papers presented at a 1998 conference cosponsored by the University of Illinois at Chicago, the Lincoln Institute, and the Brookings Institution Center on Urban and Metropolitan Policy.
