They explore the concept of the secondary city, to emphasize the significance of intra-regional relationality to contemporary urban conditions and the development possibilities facing many cities. They explore different socio-spatial contexts, discussing primary and secondary cities in the Randstand, Netherlands; small and medium-sized towns as secondary cities in Switzerland; the struggles of the development potential of secondary cities in Australia, focusing on Geelong in Victoria; secondary cities in England; uneven development and regional gentrification in Tacoma, Washington; labor and community organizations in Los Angeles and Long Beach, California; the implications of the emphasis on intra-regional relationality for work in city-regionalism; and the implications of these insights for advancing the secondary city perspective.
