Long-term concept for a city in changing conditions of the modern economy

Summary/Abstract: Cities implement the path of adjustments to the changing global economy which does not destabilize their economy, but expands opportunities for development. Changes in the concept of a city concern all zones of its functioning: internal structure, sources of income, development model, competitiveness and contact with the environment. Selecting the concept for development is not easy and it depends on numerous conditions. However, some priorities and development assumptions are common to all approaches. Cities in a long-term perspective are supposed to aim at: efficient and multilevel management, smart city, compactness, openness, responsiveness to the needs and ensuring high quality of life to all groups of users. Under conditions of significant changeability of the modern economy the determination of a long-term concept for a city should be related to the maintenance of flexibility and process operations, and not only a point response to a given situation.
