Cities are complex, sprawling, diverse places. They are organized, but disorganized; managed, but unmanaged; orderly, but disorderly. Modern metropolitan cities reproduce themselves and we are familiar with the common icons that are replicated in every part of the globe, but how should we understand cities? For the past five years, Professor Czarniawska has been leading a research project on globalization and the management of cities. Rather than seeing the city as a conurbation, or a location of economic activity, or in terms of governance and administration, Czarniawska explores the city as an action net. An action net of this sort includes various organizations-municipal, state, private, and voluntary-and non-organized individuals. Such an approach was designed to avoid the fallacy of viewing the big city as one big organization. The city is thus conceived as a particularly complex and disorderly action net; a seamless web of interorganizational networks, where the city administration proper constitutes just one point of entry and by no means provides a map of the entire terrain. The research focuses on three European capitals: Warsaw, Stockholm, and Rome. At the outset, leading politicians and officials in each city listed the major problems and projects that the city was engaged in, for example environmental reforms, improvement of public utilities, privatization, financial targets, etc. The author selected a number of these for more detailed study, reporting upon interesting similarities and differences between the approaches taken. The book aims to explore organizing processes in their local context while following the connections between such contexts.

"The Three Cities Trilogy: Rome Complete" is a novel by Émile Zola, which is part of a trilogy that includes the novels Lourdes and Paris. The second novel in the trilogy, "Rome," follows the story of Abbé Pierre Froment, a Catholic priest who travels to Rome to study the rejuvenation of Christianity. In Rome, Abbé Froment became acquainted with various influential figures in the Catholic Church, including Cardinals Boccanera and Sanguinetti, as well as several other priests and officials. He also becomes involved with the Boccanera family, who are old aristocrats with a rich history in Rome. Throughout the novel, Abbé Froment grapples with his faith and beliefs, and he becomes increasingly critical of the corruption and hypocrisy he sees in the Catholic Church. Despite his doubts, however, he remains committed to his work and to helping others. The novel is a sweeping portrait of Rome, its history, culture, and people, and it provides a deep and nuanced exploration of the themes of faith, power, and corruption.
