Broke Cities Sell Naming Rights What is significant about this article is that it actually points towards those 20-30 super-metropolises which are already in existence and will alone will be the value-adding and prosperity centres of tomorrow's world economy. These and the regions immediately round them will be the only productive entities that economists will measure in any meaningful way, not the countries in which they happen to be. And of the remainder of the towns and cities -- large, medium or small -- they will continue to deteriorate, unless they have something very special about them by way of a good income (e.g. academe, tourism).
