Bio:
For many
years Dennis Judd has been a leading contributor to the literature on
urban political economy, urban economic development, national urban
policy, and urban revitalization. He brings this research together in
his leading textbook in urban politics, City Politics: Private Power
and Public Policy (Longman, 2005, 5th ed.) Recently he has pioneered
in scholarly research on urban tourism. As part of this continuing
research program he has co-edited The Tourist City (with Susan S.
Fainstein; Yale University Press, 1999), a book that described the
global competition for tourism by cities. Through in-depth case studies,
The Infrastructure of Play (edited; M.E. Sharpe, 2003) shows how
the new infrastructure of tourism has transformed the physical
environment of cities throughout the world. Globalization and the New
Politics of Urban Development (edited; American Behavioral
Scientist, Sage Publications, April 2003), describes the political and
policy impacts of the new tourism economies. Cities and Visitors:
Regulating Cities, Markets, and City Space (edited with Lily M.
Hoffman and Susan S. Fainstein; Blackwell, 2004) advances a
comprehensive theory of tourism development that integrates social
science research on this important topic.
