Abstract
Drawing upon the smart experiences of 'world class' cities in N. America, Canada and Europe, this special issue draws together five papers from leading international experts on the transition from intelligent to smart cities. Together they do what Hollands ('Will the real smart city stand up?' City 12(3), 302-320) has recently asked of smart cities and provide the definitional components, critical insights and institutional means by which to get beyond the all-too-often self-congratulatory tone cities across the world strike when claiming to be smart. © 2011 Taylor & Francis.
