virtually all statistics defining global (or world) cities are related to economics: business, finance, trade, investment, advertising, research and development, etc.
precious little is based on culture, entertainment, diversity, civic ammentiies.
the question is: is there a correlation between the business prowess of a major city and its ability to generate culture, entertainment, diversity, etc.?
Does a city's global status automatically mean it will attract the elements that make life pleasurable due to its wealth and power? Or can cities far lower economically still create the amenities without being major business centers?>
