Focusing on the interplay between different elite groups in urban settings, this volume examines the dynamics of power in cities from the eighteenth to twentieth centuries. By integrating economic, social, and cultural history with political decision-making, it challenges the notion of a singular elite. Through specific case studies, readers are encouraged to develop a nuanced understanding of urban power, highlighting the complex relationships among various elite factions and their influence on city governance and development.
