Short info: \"How will our cities develop? And who actually determines this - the city administration alone or also the citizens? In three European metropolises the reportage City of the Future - Future of the City looks for answers: In London we get to know the concept of the city as a profit-oriented enterprise that has to prove itself in global competition with other metropolises. In Hamburg, we follow the transformation of a problem neighbourhood as part of the IBA 2013, while the residents of a small, still original artists' quarter create their own living space. In Madrid, the problems of a constantly growing city are becoming concrete: an illegally built district has emerged just 20 kilometres from the city centre, which the residents manage independently. The area has become economically interesting for the city of Madrid in recent years. So the authorities have houses demolished - leaving families on the street. But there is resistance.\"<\/p>\n
