Translocal urbanism: How Ouagadougou strategically uses decentralised cooperation

Abstract

The recent rise of city networks is related to economic deregulation and the rescaling of politics (Brenner 2004, Brenner et al. 2010). Its consequence on the development and management of cities is manifold. Urban development is for instance increasingly produced through translocal ties, as urban models, strategies, forms, and experts tend to “travel” from city to city (Guggenheim and Soderstrom 2010; McCann and Ward 2011). The intensity and nature of these phenomena vary of course from region to region depending on the economic situation and on the political choices of local governments.
