Abstract

[At the start of the study the partial privatisation of BWB and urban governance in Berlin were presented as being emblematic of broader political trends during the period. The BWB privatisation was characterised by the ‘no alternative’ study which accompanied many privatisations during this time, while the more general trends in governance in Berlin revealed the apparent ‘necessities’ of urban policy-making in the context of economic globalisation. It was argued that an analysis of both would reveal something of the politics of inevitability which emerged in this period.]
