Description of  The Game of Urban Regeneration: Culture & Community in London 2012 and Berlin's Mediaspree

Francesca Weber-Newth looks at two neighborhoods that are adjacent to large-scale regeneration schemes: the Olympic park in London and the Mediaspree waterside development in Berlin. Her analysis reveals how the concepts of culture and community are strategically employed in urban regeneration to the benefit of some and the detriment of others.
