Understanding Sydney's changing role as a global city in the Australian urban and regional network

近几十年来，悉尼已经从一个主要与新南威尔士州城镇和地区腹地相连的首府城市，转变为一个全球性城市，在新的领域与澳大利亚和地球仪的城市和地区建立了“暴风雪”联系。到目前为止，我们对这场暴风雪知之甚少，除了可以从全球城市文献中推断出来的东西，以及从最少的证据中推断出来的东西，这些证据在很大程度上是选择性的和轶事。该项目将详细介绍悉尼与地方、国家和国际的联系。对悉尼在全球经济中的地位进行更好的数据和分析是政府和企业规划的一个关键问题，特别是在增长压力巨大的悉尼盆地及其周边地区。

In recent decades Sydney has changed from being a capital city linked mainly to a hinterland of NSW towns and regions, to a global city with a 'blizzard' of linkages in new sectors involving cities and territories around Australia and across the globe. As yet we know little about this blizzard apart from what can be inferred from the global cities literature and from minimal evidence that is largely selective and anecdotal. This Project will produce a detailed profile of Sydney's linkages - locally, nationally and internationally. Better data and analysis on Sydney's place in the global economy is a critical issue for government and corporate planning especially in and around the Sydney basin where growth pressures are intense.
