“…(2011,205) As centres of post-Fordist production, cities are increasingly viewed as frameworks for public policy by both national governments and the European Union (EU). Governance, a concept often invoked in academic and policy discourse with insufficient rigour, has nevertheless developed a working, if ever-contested interface between urban government and economic policy (Boland 2000;Somlyódyné Pfeil 2008;Pálné Kovács 2010). Changes have been compelled in large part by the emergence of a power vacuum left by economic restructuring, globalization and the withdrawal of the neo-liberal state from a range of public functions, encouraging the multi-level division of power and the autonomous development activity of cities (Imbroscio 1998;Ache 2000).…”

Minor cities represent urban centres on a sub-metropolitan scale which are struggling to integrate into competitive city networks characterized by intense, worldwide agglomeration processes. Lacking sufficient mass and often situated on Europe's geographic or socio-economic peripheries, they must balance specialization and diversification agendas, and develop effective urban governance to remain viable economic centres. This paper investigates ongoing urbanization processes and their effects on minor cities, illustrated by three case studies from Hungary. Findings suggest that development cooperation and the foundations of 'urban regimes' emerge even in small and institutionally weak city-regions, although the content, as well as organization of the resulting arrangements exhibit differences from the base model.

Urban development has gained increasing momentum in governmental development policies of the past few decades throughout the Central and Eastern European region. Analyzing a new instrument of Hungarian spatial policy (Modern Cities Program), the paper shows a new initiative of a Central and Eastern European country in the field of urban development. The analysis shows the role of the program in European and domestic regional development policy, its impact on financing infrastructural developments in Hungarian urban areas, and the structure of the projects of the Modern Cities Program. Due to its sizable budget and philosophy, the Modern Cities Program is clearly unrivaled by development programs of the past century of Hungarian regional development. The program with its philosophical grounding in the still not defunct French étatist, dirigiste tradition typical of the 1960s shows a number of similarities to the latter in terms of its applied tools and methods, such as the system of planning contracts, centralized financing, and decision-making. Conversely, there is no evidence to support the interpretation of the program as a novel urban development regime, as underlined by the absence of widespread social involvement in the conceptualization of development objectives. Economic development is at the forefront of the program, with industrial and economic
