“…In contrast, instead of seeing city branding as a purpose or function of para-diplomacy, dos Santos (2021) argues that para-diplomacy by cities (city diplomacy) and city branding overlap as both share commonalities. Considering dos Santos' findings (dos Santos, 2021), this paper offers another view that city branding can be seen as paradiplomacy itself or one form of para-diplomatic activities by city actors projected to their local and international audiences (governments and non-governments).…”

“…Thus, Jakarta has played an important role in providing good example of green transformation in the country particularly and among the world's developing cities generally. What the Jakarta regional government has been working on is in line with Kavaratzis' city branding concept referring to the "application of branding to the city development" (dos Santos, 2021).…”

“…City networks, either generalist or thematically specialised in a broad range of policy areas such as climate action, creative cities or maritime governance (e.g. Gordon, 2020;Leffel, 2020;Santos, 2021), are informational infrastructures at the service of their members. As such, the editions of the MITI Sustainable Water Management Training Programme held in Seoul are primarily conceived for the participation of public officials from members of the city network Metropolis, although open to other attendees too.…”

While cities gain international momentum, they increasingly connect to innovate and learn from each other. The attraction of attention and resources lies beneath the economic reasons that drive most of the international entrepreneurship of city governments. In parallel to common market-based strategies, cities also harness their key internal policies as value-added elements to share among peers in order to enhance their transnational reputation. Contrary to business-friendly initiatives that are embedded in an economic rationality, this second type of transnational entrepreneurship revolves around the perceived reputation of local policy-making actors in their own right. By establishing an interdisciplinary dialogue between urban geography and international studies, this article proposes the international promotion of Seoul’s water management policy as an empirical case of policy boosterism, unearthing a social practice of legitimation enacted by the city government of Seoul that is simultaneously local and global.

“…Such a source of information about the location as representatives of professions with a significant volume of daily informal communication cannot be excluded (Kavaratzis & Ashworth, 2005;Soltani et al, 2018). These can include taxi drivers, hairdressers, service station workerswith regular communication contacts, whose interests can also be realised in the marketing process (dos Santos, 2020). Each region transmits information about itself in different ways: in the form of official texts and through the practice of life (Oguztimur & Akturan, 2016;Rudenko, 2019a).…”

Modern trends in the formation of urban development are based primarily on the extent to which the territory of a city can be attractive for investors, interested people in general and public administration systems. When regarding programs for the development of urban areas in the structure of sustainable development, it is necessary to highlight the methods of forming an attractive image of a city, which is considered a marketing tool. Understanding the possibilities for the development of an urban area requires the formation of tools for spatial marketing and opportunities for the establishment of measures for the development of individual tools of communication between city authorities and the external environment. The novelty of the research is determined by the structural feature of the formation of an integrated method of using marketing tools to promote the image of a city in the informational, social, and cultural aspects. The authors show the tools for implementing the marketing strategy of the urban area as elements of sustainable development. Stakeholders of sustainable development are shown not only local management structures but also global investment funds and transnational corporations. The practical significance of the study is determined by the possibility of forming based on an urban area, which is marked by the presence of sustainable development markers, innovative and science-intensive centres, and analytical corporations. The formation of development centres is also possible through the creation of smart cities.
