‘global city’
A global city is a   “command centre of world economy”                                     Saskia Sassen




main criteria:

•	   place	of	headquarters’ of transnational companies
•	   major centre for finance
•	   location	of	a	fast	growing corporate orientated service       sector
•	   place international institutions
•	   important node	of	transport	lines and	infrastructure	




Recognizable is a very one-sided specification          on purely economical criteria’s where so-
cial and political aspects are almost not considered.
Honk Kong was walking towards the specification on purely economical concentration since
the last 100 years based on its unique history.

Hong Kong and its Education now




70% of the economy is driven by the service sector.




            $$$$$$$
            $$$$$$$$
            $$$$$$$$$




This means 4%    of the inhabitants are running 70 % of Hong Kong’s economy.
This 4% are the high skilled and high educated people.
What about the other   96% of honk Kong’s population?
The idea of insertion knowledge as an additional flow into Hong
Kong is based on the theory to have education as the starting point (spin-off
effect) for the self-development in different layers - economically, socially, envi-
ronmentally and spatially.

‘hk hidden city’
summary on Hong Kong and its economy
The ongoing urbanization process has lead to a very distinct two sided surface, with 20%
being highly urban, and 80% being highly green.
Both of these unbalanced developments have created consequences for it users. Living
‘inside’ the city has resulted to living in an economical jungle, a vast array of commercial
activity throughout both its cores (the North-South core, as well as the East-West core).

The pyscho-sociological effects of this make the mind and body inhabit a densely active
economical jungle, where there is little, if any escape. It seems ecology has had to
make way for economy!
This process of urbanization has also lead to an increasing social divide, where the gap
between the rich and the poor continously grows - leading to social segregation and frag-
mented gentrification.

A purely one-sided economically driven urbanization process (80% services)
has governed its historical spatial development.

Our visions are based on the idea to balance this current form of development in order to
create a sustainable and prosperous city - a   well rounded global city.

A global city is a “command centre of world economy” Saskia Sassen main criteria: • place of headquarters’ of transnational companies • major centre for finance • location of a fast growing corporate orientated service sector • place international institutions • important node of transport lines and infrastructure Recognizable is a very one-sided specification on purely economical criteria’s where so- cial and political aspects are almost not considered. Honk Kong was walking towards the specification on purely economical concentration since the last 100 years based on its unique history. global city and its criteria
  • 6. global city => hierarchical system -> decisive is the global degree of cross-linking -> the stronger the cross-linking the higher the position MOSCOW AMSTERDAM TORONTO BRUSSELS GENEVA CHICACO BOSTEN PARIS TOKYO SAN FRANCISCO MILAN LOS ANGELES WASHINGTON NEW YORK MADRID HONG KONG SINGAPORE => “global Network of production” - after several point transnational companies externalizing tasks due to the complexity of the network and structure -> corporate orientated service sector (for example: advertisement firms, insurances, law offices, ….) -> banks and finance service achieving more importance due to deregulation of the 70th -> more possibilities for expansion, for transnational companies as well as for corporate orientated service provider global industry city transnational companies -> since 60th global city and its development

  • 170. summary on Hong Kong and its economy The ongoing urbanization process has lead to a very distinct two sided surface, with 20% being highly urban, and 80% being highly green. Both of these unbalanced developments have created consequences for it users. Living ‘inside’ the city has resulted to living in an economical jungle, a vast array of commercial activity throughout both its cores (the North-South core, as well as the East-West core). The pyscho-sociological effects of this make the mind and body inhabit a densely active economical jungle, where there is little, if any escape. It seems ecology has had to make way for economy! This process of urbanization has also lead to an increasing social divide, where the gap between the rich and the poor continously grows - leading to social segregation and frag- mented gentrification. A purely one-sided economically driven urbanization process (80% services) has governed its historical spatial development. Our visions are based on the idea to balance this current form of development in order to create a sustainable and prosperous city - a well rounded global city.
