The idea of sustainable cities has become central to the concept of sustainable economic development. This paper demonstrates that system dynamics modeling can be effectively used to study the forces preventing the sustainable development of cities. The problems being experienced by cities located in both the less industrialized and industrialized nations are examined, and a slate of current policy prescriptions is described. Simulation runs from a system dynamics model created to examine some of the barriers to the sustainable development of cities are presented and their implications for public policy are discussed.
