책소개DESCRIPTION
Over the last quarter of a century, no other city like Miami has rapidly transformed into a global city. The Global Edge?charts the social tensions and unexpected consequences of this remarkable process of change. Acting as a follow up to the highly successful City on the Edge, The Global Edge examines Miami in the context of globalization and scrutinizes its newfound place as a stellar international city. Written by two well-known senior scholars in the field, the book examines Miami’s rise as a finance and banking center without parallel in the U.S. South to the simultaneous emergence of a highly diverse but contentious ethnic mosaic. The Global Edge serves as a case study of Miami’s present cultural, economic, and political transformation, and describes how its future course can provide key lessons for other metropolitan areas through the world.?
