The book "Emerging Global Cities: Origin, Structure, and Significance" by Alejandro Portes and Ariel C. Armony explores the concept of global cities and their role in the global economy. The authors discuss how global cities have become key nodes in the global economy, attracting wealth and resources from global flows of capital and talent. They also highlight the contradictions and inequalities that exist within global cities, as well as the changing nature of global cities in the face of geopolitical shifts and challenges to US hegemony. The book examines specific cities such as Dubai, Singapore, Miami, New Orleans, Sao Paulo, Lagos, and Hong Kong to illustrate the challenges and dynamics of becoming a global city.
