	Municipality of Japan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cities ( shi, and the ku of Tokyo), towns (ç”º, pronounced either cho or machi), villages (æ‘, pronounced either son or mura) are basic municipalties.
		The difference between a shi and a special ward, the difference between a cho and a machi, and the difference between a son and a mura are only matters of the expression used in legal text.
		Except for these wards of Tokyo, all large cities are of cities designated by government ordinance.

	23 special wards - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		They are special because although they are autonomous with each having a local government, they must at the same time function seamlessly together as one large urban entity in central Tokyo.
		In 1943, when the Tokyo city government and prefectural government merged into a single metropolitan government, the wards were placed under the direct control of the metropolis.
		The total population of the 23 special wards is 8.34 million (as of Sept. 1, 2003), about two-thirds of the population of Tokyo and a quarter of the population of the Greater Tokyo Area.

		They are inexorably linked to cities through the nature of their work and yet detached from them by virtue of their globe-trotting lifestyles.
		While raising questions about the position of the city in anthropological practice, much of the existing discourse has failed to acknowledge that there is a new kind of city out there, the virtual city.
		However, while the virtual city as a general analytical category may richly fulfil its function as a focal point for cultural meanings, this role may also be problematic, as revealed by my own fieldsite, Cybercity.

		City officials say their citizens have told them to start treating their riverfronts as welcoming civic front porches rather than municipal backyards where the junk is stashed.
		And with the help of local, state and federal agencies, cities are spending millions to give their people access to the asset that a riverfront can be.

		Cities without Suburbs, first published in 1993, has become an influential analysis of America's cities among city planners, scholars, and citizens alike.
		He invests a lot of time and space in the book to go over the theory of "city elasticity", by which he means the city's ability to expand its boundaries by annexing unincorporated areas or smaller municipalities.
		In effect, the city elasticity theory can be in most cases nothing more than the "Polish blanket trick" -- sawing off part of a city and sewing it onto another.

	Russia
		The concept of the NCI was largely based on a proposal issued in September 1997 by the Russian-American Nuclear Security Advisory Council ( RANSAC), a nongovernmental organization devoted to nuclear issues in the former Soviet Union.
		It was hoped that the NCI would help the cities to become more self-sufficient by converting production to reflect the demands of a consumer-oriented market, by creating jobs in the civilian sector, and by attracting private investment to aid in the conversion process.
		Restricted access to the closed cities, their remote locations, and the unstable and poorly defined legal and economic environment in Russia continue to be the major stumbling blocks in attracting investment from private business.
