London  

Definition

  • London is consistently ranked among the top four global cities, along with New York, Tokyo, and Paris. Global cities are considered to be the building blocks of globalization because they serve as key nodes in the global network of production, finance, and telecommunications; this function makes London and other global cities significant topics for global studies.
