Stuttgart: A Metropolitan City-region in the Making?

Abstract

In Germany, there are as yet rather few cities that have given the idea of a city-region meaningful expression and institutional form. Stuttgart is one of them, having developed a unique system of regional institutions and governance structures as well as policies and initiatives to fill them with life. This paper outlines the context and development of metropolitan governance in the Stuttgart region. It analyses its structures, actors, policies and processes, and reflects on the perceived dual challenge – and tensions – of strengthening international competitiveness while enhancing natural environment and quality of life in a sustainable way.
