How far do global connections – from the increasing presence of multinational firms to the cultural diversity resulting from international migration – shape urban life today and, as such, redefine the ways in which a city’s identity is produced and perceived in relation to the nation? This contribution will consider the different perspectives offered by Rome and Rabat, two capital cities in the Mediterranean region, in order to highlight the shifting implications of ‘global identity’ at the urban scale.

Abstract
How far do global connections – from the increasing presence of multinational firms to the cultural diversity resulting from international migration – shape urban life today and, as such, redefine the ways in which a city’s identity is produced and perceived in relation to the nation? This contribution will consider the different perspectives offered by Rome and Rabat, two capital cities in the Mediterranean region, in order to highlight the shifting implications of ‘global identity’ at the urban scale.
