The Economy of Cities - Book by Jane Jacobs
In this work, Jane Jacobs explores the dynamics that drive urban economies, arguing that cities are not merely places of commerce but also ecosystems where social interactions, innovation, and local entrepreneurship thrive. She contends that economic success in cities arises from the diverse, spontaneous activities of individuals, rather than top-down planning or reliance on large corporations. Jacobs emphasizes the importance of mixed-use neighborhoods, vibrant street life, and the integration of different sectors to foster innovation and economic resilience.Original Language: English
