Political Economy of Capital Cities - Mayer, Heike (University of Bern, Switzerland) a Sager, Fritz (University of Bern, Switzerland) a Kaufmann, David (University of Bern, Switzerland) a Warland, Martin (University of Bern, Switzerland)

Capital cities that are not the dominant economic centers of their nations - so-called 'secondary capital cities' (SCCs) - tend to be overlooked in the fields of economic geography and political science. This book aims to address this gap by presenting the dynamics that influence policy and economic development in four in-depth case studies.
