New York: Making Connections

Synopsis
Despite stiff competition from elsewhere, New York has remained one of the world’s premier cities. Focusing on the economic connections that are concentrated on New York, the programme first shows how the city works to maintain its central position in those networks, then examines communities outside of Manhattan and looks at their experiences of the city, inasmuch as economic success looks very different when the environmental consequences of these connections are considered.

Notes
NB. As of May 2016 Open University Worldwide are no longer distributing DVDs. They have posted this message on their website: ‘Unfortunately Open University Worldwide Limited has decided that product sales are no longer viable given the reduced funding to Higher Education institutions and diminishing demand for the products we have traditionally stocked. At present the Open University Students Association (OUSA) will continue to sell the "Good Study Guide", and we are in discussion with other possible distributors to continue to make The Open University’s products available for purchase. As soon as we have any information on other channels of distribution we will update this notice’. Some products are still available via second hand dealers on Amazon.co.uk
