Branding New York: How a City in Crisis Was Sold to the World
Branding New York traces the rise of New York City as a brand and the resultant transformation of urban politics and public life. Greenberg addresses the role of 'image' in urban history, showing who produces brands and how, and demonstrates the enormous consequences of branding. She shows that the branding of New York was not simply a marketing tool; rather it was a political strategy meant to legitimatize market-based solutions over social objectives. “The decade that opened with the 1975 threat of bankruptcy was both a period of crisis and transformation for New York. This brilliant and imaginatively researched book explains what happened and why it is important. Branding was more than an image; it was part of a revolution in the political economy of the city. The “Big Apple” became not only a place to visit and “love,” but also a global model of the neoliberal city, which so diminished the meaning of citizenship, even as local groups struggled to preserve rights to the city.” Thomas Bender, University Professor of the Humanities, New York University "I love New York. I am equally taken by Miriam Greenberg's fascinating account of how powerful political interests invented this famous slogan as a strategy for asserting their claim over the city's image, resources, policies, and priorities." Dennis Judd, Professor of Political Science, University of Illinois, Chicago.
