Summary:

East Manchester was one of the most deprived areas of Britain in 1997, referred to as a 'basket case' in dire need of regeneration. The subsequent development initiative in East Manchester confirmed the tag that the city is the 'regeneration capital' of the United Kingdom, and this book explores the roles played by both public and private sector agencies in creating a 'new' East Manchester.
