Same Policies, Different Cities: Understanding Divergent Urban Outcomes

Abstract

Why do similar urban policies work well in some cities, but lead to fragmented implementation, speculative pressure, or unintended territorial effects in others? This article examines that question by looking beyond policy design itself. It argues that urban outcomes are shaped by how policies interact with territorial conditions, governance systems, institutional capacity, stakeholder incentives, and market dynamics.
