A conspicuously 'entrepreneurial' turn in urban governance has heightened the significance of cities as strategic sites upon and through which to foster renewed economic growth and prosperity while simultaneously combating entrenched social problems. If the pioneering entrepreneurial cities in this process (or, more precisely, their governments and agencies) have undoubtedly been located in the United States (Harvey, 1989;Jonas and Wilson, 1999), there is also little doubt that urban growth has become a key focal point of political programmes and spatial policy in many European countries (OECD, 2000; 2003; Moulaert et al., 2001; Brenner, 2003).
