Overview

This accessible guide provides a stimulating analysis of the governance of the night-time economy in cities for practitioners and newcomers alike. Drawing on a wide range of case studies of after-dark activity in cities around the world, it reviews labour, environmental, healthcare, the role of leaders including night mayors, managers and commissioners, and the influence of both public and private sectors. Urban experts consider the future of night-time economies' governance during the pandemic and beyond in this scholarly and accessible guide. They use global case studies to illustrate a range of socio-economic issues in cities after dark, and investigate the role of public and private sectors and leaders in shaping urban planning and policy.
