Moulaert et. al (2003) see contemporary urban regeneration as a universal phenomenon aimed at promoting competitiveness. Using examples from the UK and other countries‚ briefly outline the key elements and impacts of selected regeneration projects and discuss the extent to which they corroborate or contradict this understanding. Based on the research undertaken by Moulaert et.al (2003) into urban restructuring in European cities‚ the aim of this essay will be to explore the meaning of city competitiveness

more stable atoms over time‚ which is called radioactive decay. Scientists can tell how old a rock is by using radiometric clocks‚ or by looking at its absolute age. Geologists measure the amount of certain radioactive elements; as time passes the radioactive elements change at regular rates‚ into non-radioactive elements. The older a rock is the larger the number of elements. The age of the rock is found by measuring when the element decays. Radio isotopes which are used to calculate the age of
