CHORIANOPOULOS, Ioannis. Uneven development and neo-corporatism in the Greek urban realm. []. , 197, pp.739-756. ISSN 0003-2573.

This paper portrays the urbanisation and governance profile of Greek cities and explores their capacity to respond to EU calls for enhanced competitiveness and synergistic policy-making. The distinctiveness of the Greek urban example, it is argued, is not well adjusted to European spatial priorities and neo-corporatist modes of intervention. Two case study cities illustrate the argument: Keratsini-Drapetsona, facing the realities of de-industrialisation, and Iraklion, a city on the island of Crete with dynamic development indicators. The paper concludes by discussing the mode of incorporation of cities in the current National Strategic Reference Framework (2007-2013).
