Twentieth Century Foundations of European Planning(AESOP, 2012) Faludi, AndreasIn any European territorial policy, the city will play a central role. The interconnectivity of cities is after all a major dimension of territorial cohesion. The European Commission has recently brought out a report ‘Cities of Tomorrow’ which looks at the importance of cities for the territorial, economic, social and environmental future of our continent. To complement Prof. Faludi's lecture, a joint workshop was organized with the participation of representatives of the European Commission's DG for Regional Policy and other invited experts to initiate a dialogue on the issues raised in this report. It dealt with the following three questions: What is the European model of the city? What instruments are available to ensure a more sustainable development for European cities? What is the perspective for possible policy orientations in the new phase of EU research and structural policies 2014-2020? What should EU urban policy focus on; what should it avoid?
