Abstract

The paper looks into the future development of European integration in the context of the role of big cities in this process. London, Paris and Berlin are the main contenders to take the leading position. The author compares their respective strengths and weaknesses, discussing heritage as well as contemporary planning efforts. The conclusion indicates that Europe may end up with a polycentric system of capital cities rather than with a single capital.
