The geographies of local austerity policies
The literature acknowledges the variety of local austerity policies, but has paid less attention to their geographical diversity. This paper questions the theorisation of space in this literature and investigates the relationships between local austerity policies and the diversity of local spatial systems. By combining two fiscal and socio-economic classifications of French municipalities, it provides a comprehensive and fine-grained mapping of l…
Ce que les métropoles doivent au capitalisme, et réciproquement
Les métropoles entretiennent un lien étroit avec les différents modes d’accumulation des richesses. L’article explore comment elles sont le site d’un capitalisme mondialisé, financiarisé et urbanisé depuis les années 1970
State financialization
Contester la métropole
Jusqu’à récemment, les termes de « métropole » et de « métropolisation » relevaient du vocabulaire des universitaires et de celles et ceux qui gouvernent et administrent les grands territoires urbains. Depuis quelque temps, des signes de prise en charge et de politisation de ces phénomènes par des mobilisations collectives se font jour. Ce dossier analyse un certain nombre d’exemples de ces mobilisations. Dans cette introduction, nous resituons t…
Manufacturing cities for financial markets
L’extension du domaine d’intervention de la finance de marché à l’exploitation de biens immobiliers repose sur des gestionnaires d’actifs mandatés par leurs clients-investisseurs particuliers ou institutionnels. L’article montre comment leurs critères d’investissement, définis au sein de leur communauté professionnelle, pèsent sur les espaces urbains en raison de l’enrôlement des acteurs traditionnels de l’immobilier et de l’aménagement. Ces dern…
Infrastructures financières et production urbaine
L’article contribue à explorer les circuits de financement de la production urbaine. Il développe un cadre analytique conceptualisant ces circuits comme des infrastructures financières qui collectent et distribuent des capitaux, et les rémunèrent en retour à partir de l’extraction de la rente foncière. S’appuyant sur une approche sociotechnique, cette contribution expose comment les infrastructures financières confèrent une texture spécifique aux…
Financial market actors as urban policy-makers
Focusing on the growth of Real Estate Investment Trusts in Brazil, the paper explores how financializing policy instruments intertwine financial markets and the urban built environment. It studies the career of REITs and questions the role of financial market capital and actors in urban dynamics. The paper uncovers three processes usually considered separately: i) how a network of public and private financial market actors coaxes state bodies int…
Building cities on financial assets
The 2008 global financial meltdown has redirected attention to the entwinement of financial markets and the urban built environment. Against that background, recent works in urban political economy have focused on how city governments support the rent-maximisation strategies of landowners, thereby reinforcing ‘the increasing tendency to treat land as a financial asset’ (Harvey, [1982]2006). However, this perspective paradoxically understates the …
Leveraging finance capital
This paper questions the effects of the financialisation of Indian real estate markets with a focus on the Bangalore city-region. Research on Southern cities has concluded that globally connected but locally embedded real estate developers contribute to anchoring transnational investment. Yet, the acknowledged dearth of studies on the real estate industry in post-liberalisation India limits our understanding of the ongoing empowerment of local ur…

Financial markets, developers and the geographies of housing in Brazil
Financialisation and housing are predominantly associated to mortgages for homeownership and securitisation techniques. This paper looks at how financial markets influence the development industry, its business strategies, and the nature and location of its products. Adopting a supply-side account, the paper inquires into the rising role of financial markets as a source of funding for a consolidating development industry and its influence on the …
As duas opções metropolitanas das políticas de desenvolvimento territorial
O artigo interroga as políticas de desenvolvimento territorial na era da metropolização. Em um momento em que o Estado se empenha em tirar proveito das suas aglomerações de primeiro escalão em uma economia mundializada e que as coletividades locais experimentam um fortalecimento de suas competências em matéria de desenvolvimento econômico, o presente artigo discute as modalidades efetivamente utilizadas de planejamento e desenvolvimento econômico…
Finance, Business Property and Urban and Regional Development
Halbert L., Henneberry J. and Mouzakis F. Finance, business property and urban and regional development, Regional Studies. Compared with other factors of production, the supply of business property and its role in urban and regional development has received comparatively little attention. Traditional analyses assume that the supply of such property responds to demand in a relatively unproblematic way. However, there is evidence that institutional…
The Financialization of Business Property and What It Means for Cities and Regions
Halbert L., Henneberry J. and Mouzakis F. The financialization of business property and what it means for cities and regions, Regional Studies. The papers in the special issue examine the strategies and practices of investors and their relations with other actors involved in the production of business property. Although the globalization of these activities has occurred largely in the last 10–20 years, it has prompted marked changes in the geogra…
Filtering Risk Away
Halbert L. and Rouanet H. Filtering risk away: global finance capital, transcalar territorial networks and the (un)making of city-regions: an analysis of business property development in Bangalore, India, Regional Studies. This paper contributes to ongoing debates on the ‘landing’ or anchoring of global finance capital into the urban built environment. Inspired by recent advances from the school of Territorial Economics, it develops the concept o…
Finance Capital, Actor-Network Theory and the Struggle Over Calculative Agencies in the Business Property Markets of Mexico City Metropolitan Region
David L. and Halbert L. Finance capital, actor-network theory and the struggle over calculative agencies in the business property markets of Mexico City Metropolitan Region, Regional Studies. The selective spatialities of business property in the Mexico City Metropolitan Region are explained with reference to actor-network theory. Building on a conception of markets as the outcomes of the confrontation between different calculative agencies, the …
Collaborative and Collective
Economic geography increasingly conceptualises innovation as a collective action. However, the literature on clusters often reduces the collective dimension to the circulation of knowledge between local and regional organisations based on various forms of (market, organisational, social, institutional or cognitive) co-ordination. This paper diverges from this grass-roots perspective by discussing the role of collective actions in clusters—i.e. ac…
L’Avantage métropolitain
" La montée en puissance des régions urbaines va de pair avec l'affirmation d'une situation paradoxale. Les métropoles sont à la fois le produit et le moteur d'un capitalisme mondialisé qui repose sur l'hypermobilité des capitaux, des idées et des personnes, et ce à un niveau probablement jamais atteint jusqu'alors. Mais elles sont aussi les espaces dans lesquels les tensions des sociétés contemporaines s'accumulent, depuis l'accroissement des in…
Examining the Mega-City-Region Hypothesis
Halbert L. Examining the mega-city-region hypothesis: evidence from the Paris city-region/Bassin parisien, Regional Studies. Four dimensions of the concept of polycentricity (morphological, functional, relational, and political polycentricity) are discussed based on the study of the Paris city-region/Bassin parisien system. The concentration of ‘Abstract Production’ workers in the Paris agglomeration and the fairly concentrated geography of firms…
Du « modèle » de développement économique à une nouvelle forme de gouvernance métropolitaine
Entre mondialisation économique et diffusion des Nouvelles Technologies de l’Information et de Communication, la région métropolitaine de Bangalore connaît depuis une quinzaine d’années d’importantes mutations qui en font un laboratoire remarquable pour la communauté scientifique. Après avoir montré comment Bangalore est entrée dans une division internationale des tâches de production abstraite (économie de l’information), cet article analyse les…
Les villes nouvelles et les activités d'intermédiation. La polarisation des services aux entreprises en Île-de-France
Les villes nouvelles franciliennes ont attiré une grande part des activités de services aux entreprises. Quelques activités de commandement se sont même desserrées du centre pour occuper certains sites bien desservis comme dans le sud-ouest de l'agglomération. Ces mouvements centrifuges d'activités et d'emplois s'accompagnent de déplacements résidentiels vers les lointaines périphéries, dans des aires de vie quotidienne qui échappent aux villes n…
The Decentralization of Intrametropolitan Business Services in the Paris Region
What is the importance of the decentralization of business services in a Parisian metropolitan region that is known for its inherited monocentricity? Using revised statistical and cartographic methodological tools, I try to answer two questions: Is the new Parisian metropolitan economic geography one of dispersal or of polycentricity? Does decentralization mean the decline or the reinforcement of the economic core? If secondary suburban economic …
