Developing Local Governance
Networks in Europe
There has recently been a major rush of reforms at
local government level throughout Europe. This cutting
edge book provides both a conceptual overview
of this trend and an empirical analysis of the
new "local governance networks” which are emerging
in Europe.
This book examines the changing relationships between
public, private and voluntary actors at local level
through case studies in eleven countries and reports
from two multi-country comparative studies. It
also provides a research agenda for comparative local
governance.
This is the first book in the ‘Local Governance in Europe’
series from the Study Group on Local Governance
(http://www.uwe.ac.uk/bbs/sglg/) under
the auspices of the European Group of Public Administration
(EGPA).
The book will be essential reading for researchers
and students of public administration, management
and political science as well as for change agents at
local level.
