Description

Even as government provides the structure of public leadership, governance is the art of public leadership. This timely book examines current trends in metropolitan governance issues. It analyzes specific cases from thirteen major metropolitan regions in the USA, Canada, and Mexico, all woven in combination by an overall framework established within the first three chapters. The celebrated contributors cope with such governance issues as city-county consolidation, local-federal coordination, annexation and special districting, and personal contracting, with special attention to lessons learned from both successes and screw ups. As urban governance innovations have clearly outpaced urban government structures in up to date years, the themes covered here are especially relevant.
