Summary:Brooklyn has all the features of a "global borough": It is a base of immigrant labor and ethnically diverse communities, of social and cultural capital, of global transportation, cultural production, and policy innovation. At once a model of sustainable urbanization and overdevelopment, the question is now: What will become of Global Brooklyn?0Tracing the emergence of Brooklyn from village outpost to global borough, 'Brooklyn Tides' investigates the nature and consequences of global forces that have crossed the East River and identifies alternative models for urban development in global capitalism.
